Radio Data System (RDS)
The audio system has a Radio Data System (RDS)
feature. RDS is available for use only on FM stations
that broadcast RDS information. This system relies upon
receiving speci c information from these stations and
only works when the information is available. While the
radio is tuned to an FM-RDS station, the station name
or call letters display. In rare cases, a radio station
can broadcast incorrect information that causes the radio
features to work improperly. If this happens, contact
the radio station.

Speed Compensated Volume (SCV):A Radio with
SCV automatically adjusts the sound to compensate
