RDS

Overview of the RDS

function

The Radio Data System (RDS) is a

broadcasting service that allows FM stations to

send additional digital information along with

the regular radio programme signal. Your car

stereo offers you a variety of services. Here are

just a few: re-tuning the same programme

automatically, listening to traffic

announcements and locating a station by

programme type.

Notes

• Depending on the country or region, not all of

the RDS functions are available.

• RDS may not work properly if the signal strength

is weak or if the station you are tuned in to is

not transmitting RDS data.

Displaying the station

name

The name of the station currently received

lights up in the display.

Select an FM station (page 8).

When you tune in an FM station that

transmits RDS data, the station name

appears in the display.

no alternative frequency is available. Press

(SEEK/AMS) while the station name is flashing

(within eight seconds). The unit starts searching

for another frequency with the same PI

(Programme Identification) data (“PI SEEK”

appears and no sound is heard). If the unit cannot

find another frequency, “NO PI” appears, and the

unit returns to the originally selected frequency.

Listening to a regional programme

The “REG” (regional on) function of this unit

lets you stay tuned to a regional programme

without being switched to another regional

station. (Note that you must turn the AF

function on.) The unit is factory preset to

“REG,” but if you want to turn off the

function, do the following.

Press (AF/TA) for more than two seconds

until “REG” disappears.

Note that turning the “REG” function off

might cause the unit to switch to another

regional station within the same network.

Note

This function does not work in the United

Kingdom and in some other areas.

Local link function (United

Kingdom only)

2 Press (AF/TA) repeatedly until “AF”

appears.

The unit starts searching for an alternative

station with a stronger signal in the same

network.

Note

When there is no alternative station in the area

and you do not need to search for an alternative

station, turn the AF function off by pressing

(AF/TA) repeatedly until “AF TA” disappears.

Changing the displayed items

Each time you press (AF/TA), the item changes

as follows:

Listening to traffic

announcements

The Traffic Announcement (TA) and Traffic

Programme (TP) data let you automatically

tune in an FM station that is broadcasting

traffic announcements even though you are

listening to other programme sources.

Press (AF/TA) repeatedly until “TA” or

“AF TA” appears.

The unit starts searching for traffic

information stations. “TP” appears in the

display when the unit finds a station

broadcasting traffic announcements.

When the traffic announcement starts,

“TA” flashes. “TA” stops flashing when the

traffic announcement is over.

Tips

• If you press (AF/TA) while tuning in the traffic

announcement, the unit can play a CD.

• If the traffic announcement starts while you are

listening to another programme source, the unit

automatically switches to the announcement and

goes back to the original source when the

announcement is over.

Notes

• “NO TP” flashes for five seconds if the received

station does not broadcast traffic

announcements. Then, the unit starts searching

for a station that broadcasts traffic

announcements.

• When “EON” appears with “TP” in the display,

the current station makes use of traffic

announcements broadcast by other stations in

the same network.

To cancel the current traffic

announcement

Press (AF/TA) momentarily.

To cancel all traffic announcements, turn off

the function by pressing (AF/TA) until “AF”

and “TA” disappear.

RDS

Presetting the volume of traffic

announcements

You can preset the volume level of the traffic

announcements beforehand so you won’t miss

the announcement. When a traffic

announcement starts, the volume will be

automatically adjusted to the preset level.

1 Select the desired volume level.

2 Press (3) while pressing (SEL).

“TA VOL” appears and the setting is stored.

Receiving emergency

announcements

If an emergency announcement comes in while

you are listening to the radio, the programme

will be automatically switched to the

announcement. If you are listening to a source

other than the radio, the emergency

announcements will be heard if you set AF or

TA to on. The unit will then automatically

switch to these announcements no matter what

you are listening to at the time.

12

EN

Presetting RDS stations

with the AF and TA data

When you preset RDS stations, the unit stores

each station’s data as well as its frequency, so

you don’t have to turn on the AF or TA

function every time you tune in the preset

station. You can select a different setting (AF,

TA, or both) for individual preset stations, or

the same setting for all preset stations.

Presetting the same setting for all

preset stations

1 Select an FM band (page 8).

2 Press (AF/TA) repeatedly to select either

“AF,” “TA” or “AF TA” (for both AF and

TA functions).

Note that turning the “AF TA” function off

stores RDS stations as well as non-RDS

stations.

3 Press (SENS/BTM) for two seconds.

Presetting different settings for

each preset station

1 Select an FM band, and tune in the

desired station (page 8).

2 Press (AF/TA) repeatedly to select either

“AF,” “TA” or “AF TA” (for both AF and

TA functions).

3 Press the desired number button for two

seconds until “MEM” appears.

Repeat from step 1 for presetting other

stations.

Tip

If you want to change the preset AF and/or TA

setting after you tune in the preset station, you

can do so by turning on/off the AF or TA function.

Locating a station by

programme type

You can locate the station you want by

selecting one of the programme types shown

below.

Note

If the countries or regions where EON data is not
