band can be stored automatically in the memory.

memory when the audio unit is switched off. When the unit is switched on again, the radio will search for and store up

pg. 142 RDS
Radio Data System
The Volvo HU -555 is designed for the digital information system RDS (Radio Data System).
RDS features automatic programming and instant traffic information and it broadens the possibilities for program
choices. The transmitter broadcasts information about the program. This information is represented by a data code,
which identifies the program, irrespective of which frequency the information is transmitted.
This means that the driver does not have to change the frequency if he wants to continue listening to the same
program. Every station/program has a specific identification which the radio searches for.
The RDS radio can also receive traffic information. This is transmitted with a special signal which cuts through any
normal radio transmission, or CD play back and is always heard at its own adjustable volume.
PTY (Program Type) information, which is an extension of the RDS system, is also transmitted in certain areas.
There are a number of other features in the RDS -system, such as time control signals, alarms etc.

Compact disc care
Before using a new disc for the first time, remove any burrs in the center/outer edge by running the stem of a pen or
similar object around the hole/edge of the disc.
Use high quality discs only.
Keep the discs clean. Wipe them with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth, working from the center outwards. If necessary,
dampen the cloth with a neutral soap solution. Dry thoroughly before using.
Never use cleaning spray or anti-static liquid. Use only cleaners specifically made for CD's.
Use discs of the correct size only
NOTE: Never use 3.5" discs.
Do not put tape or labels on the disc itself.
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
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 disc which is damaged in any way.
When not in use, the discs should be stored in their covers. Avoid storing discs in excessive heat, direct sunlight or
dusty locations.
