Using RDS
Your audio system is equipped with Radio Data Systems
(RDS). RDS mode gives you many useful new features.
With RDS the radio can do the following:
Seek only to stations with the types of programs
you want to listen to,
seek to stations with traffic announcements,
receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies,
receive and display messages from radio stations and
search for a stronger station when a station is too
weak for listening.
RDS features are only available for use on FM stations
which broadcast RDS information.
(RDS Select): Press this button to use the
alternate RDS functions (RDS, TA, MSG, PTY and
the PTY arrows).HR (Hour) or MN (Minute): Press the RDS select
button, followed by one of these buttons to display the
time of the current station. STATION TIME IS will be
displayed. If a time has not been sent to the radio,
NO STATION TIME will be displayed. If you have
recently tuned to the station, you may need to wait a
minute before the time is available to the radio. To set
the clock to the current displayed station time, press and
hold HR or MN until TIME UPDATED is displayed.
There is a two second delay before the time is updated.
RDS does not have to be on to use this function,
but you must be tuned to an FM RDS station.
REGION: Press the RDS select button, then press
and hold the RDS pushbutton for two seconds.
REGION: ON will appear on the display. When an
RDS station becomes weak, this function searches for
a stronger station within the same network. A network
can span a great distance. One network can have stations
spread across a country or continent. Each network
breaks down into regions. With regions, local news
items like weather and traffic are available to you.
When the region function is on, the radio only searches
for stations in the same network and region. You can
only use the region function when RDS is on. Press the
RDS pushbutton again to turn the region function off.
REGION: OFF will appear on the display.

two seconds, the PTY you set will return.
5. Repeat the steps for each pushbutton.
When battery power is removed and later applied,
you will not have to reset your RDS presets because
the radio remembers them.RDS Messages
ALERT: This type of announcement warns of national
or local emergencies. You will not be able to turn off
alert announcements. Alert announcements will come
on even if RDS mode is turned off. ALERT appears
on the display when an alert announcement plays.
The radio uses TA volume during these announcements.
To increase volume, turn the VOL knob clockwise.
Turn it counterclockwise to decrease volume.
TA VOLUME will appear on the display while the
volume is being adjusted. When an alert announcement
comes on the current radio station or a related network
station, you will hear it, even if the volume is muted
or a cassette tape or compact disc is playing. If the
radio tunes to a related network station for an alert
announcement, it will return to the original station
when the announcement is finished. If the cassette tape
or compact disc player is playing, play will stop for the
announcement and resume when the announcement
is finished.
