experiences: talk, front seat, ambience and spacious.
DSP can be used while listening to the radio, the
cassette tape player or the CD player. Press this button

non
-musical material such as news, talk shows, sports
broadcasts and books on tape. Talk makes spoken words
sound very clear.
FRONT SEAT: This setting adjusts the audio to give
the driver the best possible sound qualities. Front seat
can be used at any time for any material. Rear seat
passengers in the vehicle may not get the same effect.
AMBIENCE: This setting is used to enhance the
stereo effect.
SPACIOUS: This setting is used to make the listening
space seem larger.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:

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 (Radio Data Systems): If you are tuned to a
station broadcasting RDS information, the station's
call letters and Program Type (PTY) will replace the
station's frequency on the display. After five seconds,
the program type will be replaced on the display by the
station's program type name. The program type and
program type name may be the same or different.
Press BAND to recall the frequency and program type
displays. 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 will
search for a stronger station in the network when a
station gets too weak for listening.

3-21
HR (Hour) or MN (Minute): When tuned to an RDS
station, press these buttons to display the time for 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 HR or MN until
TIME UPDATED is displayed. You must be tuned to
an FM RDS station.
RDS Messages
ALERT: This type of announcement warns of national
or local emergencies. You will not be able to turn off
alert announcements. ALERT appears on the display
when an alert announcement plays. The radio uses
TA volume during these announcements. To increase
volume, turn the PWR/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 arelated 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.
TA (Traffic Announcement): This feature allows
the radio to receive traffic announcements even with
the volume muted, or when listening to a CD or
cassette tape.
When the TA button is pressed and released, the radio
will search for a station with TA if the current station is
not TA capable. During the search TA will flash on the
display. Once a TA station is found, TA will appear on the
display and the traffic announcement will be played. If no
station broadcasting traffic announcements is found, NO
TRAFFIC STATION FOUND will appear on the display.
If the TA button is pressed and held for two seconds, the
radio will search for the next available TA station.
While a traffic announcement plays, the radio uses a
special type of volume called TA volume. To increase
TA 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.

3-22
When a traffic 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 a traffic announcement, it will return
to the original station when the announcement is
finished. 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.
