Using
RBS
Your audio system is equipped with a Radio Data
System (RDS). RDS features are available for use only
on
FM
stations that broadcast RDS information.
Using this system, the radio can do the following:
Seek
to
stations broadcasting the selected type of
programming,
national emergencies,
*
receive announcements concerning local and
e
display messages from radio stations, and
*
seek to stations with traffic announcements.
This system relies upon receiving specific information
from these stations and will only work when the
information is available. In rare cases, a radio station
may broadcast incorrect information that will cause
the radio features to work improperly.
If
this happens,
contact the radio station.
While you are tuned to an RDS station, the station
