Using RDS
Your audio system is equipped with Radio Data Systems
(RDS). RDS features are available for use only on FM
stations that broadcast RDS information. Using this
system, the radio can:
1. receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies,
2. seek to stations with traffic announcements,
3. display messages from radio stations and
4. search for a stronger station when a station is too
weak for listening.
If you are tuned to a station broadcasting RDS
information, the station's call letters and program
service name will replace the station's frequency on the
display. The program type and program type name may
be the same or different. If the radio is tuned to a station
that is not broadcasting RDS information, the station's
frequency will remain on the display. With RDS the
radio can search for a stronger station in the network
when a station gets too weak for listening if alternate
frequency is on.RDS Messages
ALERT: Alert warns of local and national emergencies.
When an alert announcement comes on the current radio
station or a related network station, ALERT will appear
on the display. You will hear the announcement, even if
the volume is muted or a cassette tape or compact disc is
playing. If the cassette tape or compact disc player was
being used, the tape or compact disc will stay in the
player and resume play at the point where it stopped
when the announcement has ended. You will not be able
to turn off alert announcements. If the radio tunes to a
related network station for the announcement, it will
return to the original station when the announcement
is finished.
The radio uses TA volume for alert announcements.
To increase or to decrease volume, turn the VOL knob.
The volume can not be turned completely down or off.

Navigation/Radio System (Option)
Navigation/Radio Display and Controls
The display screen is located in the center of the
instrument panel.Your vehicle may be equipped with an AM
-FM radio
navigation radio system that includes digital sound
processing (DSP), Radio Data System (RDS) with
program type selections (PTY) that will seek out the
kind of music you want to listen to. The radio system
can also communicate with your navigation system to
broadcast announcements on traffic, weather and
emergency alert communications. For information on
how to use this system, see the ªNavigation/Radio
Systemº supplement.
Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCK
is designed to discourage theft of your
radio. Your vehicle has a ªbuilt
-inº theft-deterrent
feature on each radio that is automatic
-- there is no
programming required. The radio in your vehicle cannot
be used in any other vehicle. When the radio was
originally installed in your vehicle at the factory, it
stored the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Each
time the ignition is turned on, the VIN is verified. If the
vehicle's VIN does not match the VIN stored in the
radio, THEFTLOCK will be activated and the audio
system will not play. If the radio is removed from your
vehicle, the original VIN in the radio can be used to
trace the radio back to your vehicle.
