Radio Broadcast Data System - RBDS
This feature, which may not be available in your area, functions only with FM broadcasts. The radio in your car is
equipped with an advanced system allowing information from broadcasters to be transmitted visually, as text, together
with the audio signal. This information is then decoded by the radio and made available for several new and unique
features.
The RBDS or Radio Broadcast Data System operates in the FM band only, and the information transmitted is
supplied exclusively by participating broadcasters.
ProCarManuals.com

Volvo has no control over the accuracy of the data or information.
Coverage by local broadcasters may be limited at this time, but as the technology and benefits grow, you will find the
radio in your car is equipped to take advantage of this system.
PI (Program Information) seek
When an FM station has been stored as a preset, the radio also stores RBDS program information if it is available.
When the preset is selected at a later time, the radio tries to access updated program information. In weak signal areas,
there may be a delay before the station becomes audible. During this delay, there will be no sound.
PI seek can be interrupted by pressing EXIT.

Compact disc care
Keep the following in mind when playing/handling compact discs
The discs should conform to the norms EN60908 (IEC60908). CDR discs can cause listening problems due to the
quality of the disc or recording equipment used.
DualDisc: The audio side of a DualDisc (combined CD/DVD) does not meet CD specifications and may not play in
your audio system.
Keep the discs clean. Wipe them with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth, working from the center outward. If necessary,
dampen the cloth with a neutral soap solution. Dry thoroughly before using.
Never use cleaning spray or antistatic liquid. Use only cleaners specifically made for CDs.
Use discs of the correct size only (3.5" discs should never be used).
Do not put tape or labels on the disc itself. They could become stuck in the player.
Volvo does not recommend the use of plastic outer rings on the disc.
Condensation may occur on discs/ optical components of the changer in cold winter weather. The disc can be dried
ProCarManuals.com

with a clean, lint-free cloth. Optical components in the CD changer may, however, take up to one hour to dry off.
Never attempt to play a damaged CD.
When not in use, the discs should be stored in their covers. Avoid storing discs in excessive heat, direct sunlight or
dusty locations.
