When you name an RDS station and tune in that

Using the Radio Data 
System (RDS)
(Models of area code AU1, TW2 
only)
This receiver allows you to use Radio Data 
System (RDS), which enables radio stations to 
send additional information along with the 
regular program signal. This receiver offers 
convenient RDS features, such as program 
service name display.
Notes
• RDS is operable only for FM stations.
• Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do 
they provide the same type of services. If you are 
not familiar with the RDS services in your area, 
check with your local radio stations for details.
Simply select a station on the FM 
band using Direct Tuning (page 46), 
Automatic Tuning (page 46), or 
Preset Tuning (page 48).
When you tune in a station that provides RDS 
services, “RDS” lights up and the program 
service name appears on the display.
Note
RDS may not work properly if the station you tuned 
to is not transmitting the RDS signal properly or if 
the signal strength is weak.
Tip
When a program service name is displayed, you can 
check the frequency by pressing DISPLAY 
repeatedly (page 43).
