Radio Broadcast Data System -
(RBDS)
The SC-901 radio is equipped with an
advanced system allowing information from
broadcasters to be transmitted inaudibly
together with the audio signal. This
information is then decoded by the SC-901
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 by participating broadcasters. Volvo
has no control over the accuracy of the data
or information. Please refer to pages 175-179
regarding specific descriptions and operation
of these functions.
Volvo was among the first to pioneer this
technology throughout Europe and it is
slowly making its way to North America.
Coverage by local broadcasters may be
limited at this time, but as the technology and
benefits grow, you will find the SC-901 radio
ready to take advantage of this system.
Automatic tuning
This feature may not apply in your area.
If you tune into a station using RBDS, the
frequency is displayed followed by the name
of the station in letters. The AF function
ensures that the radio automatically tunes into
the most powerful transmitter for the selected
program.
Keep the FM button pressed down for at least
two seconds. AF Switch OFF appears in the
display for two seconds. If you want to switch
on the AF function, press the FM button for
less than one second. AF Switch ON then
appears in the display.

function will only seek stations which
