RDS Operations

RDS (Radio Data System)
This unit has a built-in RDS decoder system that
supports broadcast stations transmitting RDS
data.
This system can display the name of the
broadcast station being received (PS), and can
automatically switch to the broadcast station
with the best reception as you move over long
distances (AF switching).
If a traffic announcement or programme type is
broadcasted from an RDS station, this
broadcast is received no matter what mode you
are in.
Also, if EON information is received, this
information enables automatic switching of other
preset stations on the same network and
interruption of the station being received with
traffic information from other stations (TP). This
function is not available in some areas.
When using the RDS function, always set the
radio to the FM mode.

∗ RDS interrupt does not function during AM
radio reception.
