The Radio Data System (RDS) is a broadcasting service
which allows stations to send additional information
along with the regular radio programme signal.
RDS works on the FM waveband in Europe only.
1 Tune in an FM station (see page 30).
2 Press the RDS button.
Each time the RDS button is pressed, the RDS mode is
changed as follows:
PROGRAM SERVICE
When you select “PROGRAM SERVICE”, “PROGRAM
SERVICE” will blink for about 3 seconds and then the
programme service name or a station’s name will be
displayed. If there is no programme service data, the
frequency will be displayed.
PROGRAM TYPE
When you selec t “PROGRAM T YPE”, “PROGRAM
TYPE” will blink for about 3 seconds and then the
programme type will be displayed.
CLOCK TIME
Displays the information about times provided from
the station.
When you select “CLOCK TIME”, “RDS CLOCK TIME” will
blink for about 3 seconds and then the clock time will
be displayed.
RADIO TEXT
When you select “RADIO TEXT”, “RDS RADIO TEXT”
will blink for about 3 seconds and then the news
of stations composed of up to 64 symbols will be
displayed.
If there is no radio text data, RDS mode will be
automatically switched to PROGRAM SERVICE mode.
RDS
TRAFFIC ANNOUNCE
When you select “TRAFFIC ANNOUNCE”, “TRAFFIC
ANNOUNCE” will blink for 3 seconds and then the unit
searches for a traffic announcement.
< When a traffic programme is found, the TRAFFIC
ANNOUNCE mode is switched to PROGRAM SERVICE
mode.
If the station currently selected is transmitting a traffic
programme signal, the RDS mode will be switched
to PROGRAM SERVICE mode without searching for a
traffic programme.
The clock setting of this unit is automatically adjusted
according to the CLOCK TIME (CT) data.
If you tune in an RDS station broadcasting incorrect
CT data, the clock might be wrongly adjusted, and
that may eventually affect the timer operation.
When you do not want the clock of this unit to be
set according to the CT data, turn off the auto clock
adjustment.
< No matter which RDS mode is selected, the unit
receives CT data and adjusts the clock.
To turn off the auto clock adjustment, hold
down the RDS button for more than 8 seconds.
< To turn on the auto clock adjustment again, hold
down the RDS button for more than 8 seconds.
< When the auto clock adjustment is turned off,
CLOCK TIME is not displayed.
