USING THE RDS (RADIO DATA SYSTEM) FUNCTION ON FM WHAT IS THE RDS SYSTEM?
The RDS system provides access to various functions described in this chapter, the main one of which allows you to keep listening to the same radio station by automatically selecting the frequency on which the best reception can be obtained according to the area in which you are travelling.
SCANNING FOR RDS TRANSMISSIONS
The system searches for and retains the best possible reception for a selected radio station.
The system continually checks for any other frequencies on which the selected radio station is broadcast, and auto-matically chooses that offering the best reception.
Press the “RDS” button (J).
If the station you have selected does not broadcast on several frequencies in the area in which you are travelling, it is possible to deactivate the automatic RDS transmission scanning function.
Press the “RDS” button (J) again in order to deactivate the function.
Note :
- If the station received carries RDS with the RDS transmission scanning function, then the “RDS” indicator will come on with the “NAME” of the radio station shown on the display.
- If the station received carries RDS without the RDS transmission scanning function, then the “RDS” indicator will fl ash with the “NAME” of the radio station shown on the display.
- If the station received does not carry RDS, the “RDS” indicator will fl ash continually. The display will only show the station frequency.
- The “RDS” indicator will remain off if the RDS search function is deactivated. The display will either show the “NAME” of any stations carrying RDS, or the frequency of those without.
REGIONAL SEARCH MODE
Some national radio networks broadcast regional programmes at certain times of the day.
It is possible to either :
- search for the regional station only.
- search across the whole network in order to fi nd a different programme.
Press the button “RDS” (J), for more than two seconds in order to activate or deactivate the function.
Note :
- If the function has been activated, the system will remain tuned to one specifi c regional station.
- If the function has been deactivated, the system will select the regional station with the strongest signal.
