RDS Operations
RDS (Radio Data System)
This unit has a built-in RDS decoder system that
supports broadcast stations transmitting RDS data.
This system can display the name of the broadcast
station being received (PS) and can automatically
switch to the broadcast station with the best recep-
tion as you move long distances (AF switching).
Also, if a traffic announcement or programme type
is broadcast from an RDS station, no matter what
mode you are in, this broadcast is received.
Additionally, if EON information is received, this in-
formation enables automatic switching of other pre-
set stations on the same network and interruption
of the station being received with traffic informa-
tion from other stations (TP). This function is not
available in some areas.
When using the RDS function, always set the
radio to FM mode.
