RDS (Radio Data System)
This unit incorporates an RDS system decoder
for use with stations broadcasting RDS data.
This system enables the radio to display the name
of the station being received (PS), and also to
automatically switch to a better frequency when
one is available while you are traveling great dis-
tances (AF switching).
It can also interrupt a CD or tape with traffic in-
formation or the programme type broadcast by
an RDS station.
Additionally, if EON information is received, this
information enables automatic switching of other
preset stations on the same network and inter-
ruption of the station being received with traffic
information from other stations (TP). This func-
tion may not work in some regions.
To use the RDS function, be sure to set the radio
to FM mode.
*AF: Alternative Frequencies
°PS: Programme Service Name
*PTY: Programme Type
¢ EON: Enhanced Other Network
°TP: Traffic Programme
* If an RDS station can no longer be received clearly
(at the current location), “AF” flashes in the dis-
play. When reception is restored, “AF” stops flash-
ing.
AF function
The AF function enables the unit to maintain op-
timum reception by switching to different frequen-
cies on the same network.
* The factory setting is “on”.
