RDS and RDS-EON
In addition to the features described previously
this audio unit also provides the following
RDS-EON features:
Traffic information
RDS-EON connects certain radio stations so
that traffic information broadcast from one may
be received while listening to another. Stations
identified by ' TP ' will only receive traffic
announcements from other linked stations.
If, due to reception difficulties, traffic
information is not received, the audio unit
mutes and 'NO INFO' is displayed briefly
Local or distant traffic announcements
Because the number of traffic announcements
may become excessive in some areas, it is
possible to select local traffic information
('TA-LOCAL') or traffic information from
further away ('TA-DIST')
(To select this feature, refer to page 23.)
Station presets
When driving to another part of the country
some RDS-EON stations stored on preset
buttons are updated with the correct frequency
for that area.
