Using RDS Mode
Your audio system is equipped with Radio Data Systems
(RDS). RDS mode gives you many useful new features.
When RDS is on, the radio can:

seek only to stations with the types of programs you
want to listen to,

seek to stations with traffic announcements,

receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies,

receive and display messages from radio stations and

search for a stronger station when a station is too
weak for listening.
RDS features are only available for use on FM stations
which broadcast RDS information. RDS SELECT: Press this button to use the
alternate RDS functions (RDS, TA, MSG, PTY and

PTY) located on the six numbered pushbuttons.
RDS SELECT will appear on the display. The alternate
RDS functions are only available when you are using
the FM band of your radio.
RDS (1): With RDS off, press the RDS SELECT button,
followed by this button to turn RDS on. The RDS
display will turn on. You must have RDS on to use the
new RDS functions. The RDS display will also turn on
if one of the other RDS function buttons has been
pressed on. If you are tuned to a station broadcasting
RDS information, the station's call letters and Program
Type (PTY) will replace the station's frequency on the
display. After five seconds, the program type will be
replaced on the display by the station's program type
name. The program type and program type name may
be the same or different. Press BAND to recall the
frequency and program type displays. If the radio is
tuned to a station that is not broadcasting RDS
information, the station's frequency will remain on the
display. While RDS is on, the radio will search for a
stronger station in the network when a station gets too
weak for listening. Press the RDS SELECT button,
followed by this button again to turn RDS off.
All RDS functions will be turned off.

3-32
REGION: You can also use the RDS button to access
the region function. When an RDS station becomes
weak, this function searches for a stronger station within
the same network. A network can span a great distance.
One network can have stations spread across a country
or continent. Each network breaks down into regions.
With regions, local news items like weather and traffic
are available to you. When the region function is on, the
radio only searches for stations in the same network and
region. You can only use the region function when RDS
is already on. Press the RDS SELECT button. Then
press and hold the RDS button for two seconds.
REGION: ON will appear on the display. While
REGION: ON appears on the display, press the RDS
button again to turn the region function off. REGION:
OFF will appear on the display. The region function can
be turned on again by pressing the RDS button.
TA (2): Press the RDS SELECT button, followed
by this button to receive traffic announcements.
The radio will turn on the TA display. TP will appear
on the display if the tuned station broadcasts traffic
announcements. You may also receive traffic
announcements from stations in the network related to
the tuned station. If the current tuned station does not
broadcast traffic announcements, the radio will seek to a
station which does.When the radio finds a station which broadcasts traffic
announcements, it will stop. If no station is found,
NONE FOUND will appear on the display. When SEEK
or SCAN is pressed with the traffic announcement
function on, the radio will only stop at stations which
broadcast traffic announcements.
While a traffic announcement plays, the radio uses a
special type of volume called TA volume. To increase
TA volume, turn the PWR/VOL knob clockwise.
Turn it counterclockwise to decrease volume.
TA VOLUME will appear on the display while the
volume is being adjusted.
When a traffic announcement comes on the tuned radio
station or a related network station, you will hear it,
even if the volume is muted or a cassette tape or
MiniDisc is playing. If the radio tunes to a related
network station for a traffic announcement, it will return
to the original station when the announcement is
finished. If the cassette tape or MiniDisc player was
being used, the tape or MiniDisc will stay in the player
and resume play at the point where it stopped.
Press the RDS SELECT button, followed by this button
again to turn TA off.

MSG (3): When RDS is on, if the current station has a
message, MSG will appear on the display. Press the
RDS SELECT button, followed by this button to see the
message. If the whole message does not appear on the
display, parts of the message will appear every three
seconds until the message is completed. To see the parts
of the message faster than every three seconds, press this
button again. A new group of words will appear on the
display. Once the complete message has been displayed,
MSG will disappear from the display until another new
MSG is received.
PTY (4): This button is used to turn on and off Program
Type (PTY) seeks and scans. Press the RDS SELECT
button, followed by this button. The PTY display will
turn on. RDS SELECT: PTY NEWS will appear on
the display for three seconds. (The PTY shown will
be the last PTY selected.) Press the RDS SELECT
button, followed by this button again to turn the PTY
display off.

you can save the PTY in a preset by pressing one of the
six numbered pushbuttons until you hear a beep. Allow
three seconds for the message to disappear if you do not
want to save the PTY in a preset. See ªRadio Data

the Index.
When the PTY display is on, press SEEK and SCAN to
find radio stations of the PTY you want to listen to. The
last PTY selected will be used for seek and scan modes.

by one of these buttons to display the time for the
current station. STATION TIME IS will be displayed.
If a time has not been sent to the radio, NO STATION
TIME will be displayed. If you have recently tuned to
the station, you may need to wait a minute before the
time is available to the radio.To set the clock to the current displayed station time,
press and hold HR or MN until TIME UPDATED is
displayed. There is a two second delay before the time is
updated. RDS mode does not have to be on to use this
function, but you must be tuned to an FM RDS station.
ALERT: This type of announcement warns of national
or local emergencies. You will not be able to turn off
alert announcements. Alert announcements will come on
even if RDS mode is turned off. ALERT appears on the
display when an alert announcement plays. The radio
uses TA volume during these announcements. To
increase volume, turn the PWR/VOL knob clockwise.
Turn it counterclockwise to decrease volume. TA
VOLUME will appear on the display while the volume
is being adjusted. When an alert announcement comes
on the tuned radio station or a related network station,
you will hear it, even if the volume is muted or a
cassette tape or MiniDisc is playing. If the radio tunes to
a related network station for an alert announcement, it
will return to the original station when the
announcement is finished. If the cassette tape or
MiniDisc player is playing, play will stop for the
announcement and resume when the announcement
is finished.
