Radio Data System (RDS)

The radio may have RDS. The RDS feature is available
for use only on FM stations that broadcast RDS
information. This system relies upon receiving specific
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 could broadcast
incorrect information that causes the radio features to
work improperly. If this happens, contact the radio
station.
