Radio Operation

RDS STATION SERVICE

Today many stations transmit so-called RDS (Radio Data System) codes that contain a variety of additional information
along with regular sound signals through FM broadcasting.

If the stereo is currently receiving an RDS station, it displays the station name.

Example:

PROGRAM TYPES (PTY)

1. Tune in a station either manualy or by selecting a pre-set station as described on the various page.
2. Press the DISPLAY button repeatedly until “PTY” is displayed. Shortly afterwards the current program type will be

displayed briefly.

Example:

RADIOTEXT

Some RDS stations transmit information known as Radiotext. This is additional information about the station and its
programmes. Radiotext appears as ticker text, scrolling sideways in the display. As this information is transmitted
character by character, it may take some time before the text is received in full.

1. Tune in a station either manually or by selecting a pre-set station as described on the previous page.
2. Press the DISPLAY button repeatedly until “RT” is displayed. If it is an RDS station and Radiotext is transmitted,

the text will scroll along the display after it has all been received.

3. Deactivate Radiotext by pressing the DISPLAY button.

Notes:
• If Radiotext is not provided by the selected station, only the station frequency will be shown in the display.
• It can take as much as two minutes to receive all radiotext characters, please wait if the station is just tuned or

signal received is weak.
