(d) Radio Data System
Your audio system is equipped with Radio
Data Systems (RDS). RDS mode pro-
vides you to receive text messages from
radio stations that utilize RDS transmit-
ters.
When RDS is on, the radio can
—only select stations of a particular pro-
gram type,
—display messages from radio stations,
—search for a stronger signal station,
—search for local stations broadcasting
the same network as the vehicle travels,
—receive announcements concerning lo-
cal and national emergencies (even if
RDS function is turned off).
RDS features are available for the use
only on FM stations which broadcast RDS
information. “RDS SRCH” switch
This switch allows you to search all avail-
able RDS stations out of the entire FM
band and sort them by program type
(See following “TYPE” switch for details
on program types).
By touching this button at the FM mode,
RDS is turned on and the radio is
switched to FM type mode. During the
program type search, “RDS SEARCH” will
be shown on the screen. Also at this
time, “FM TYPE” will appear on the
screen to indicate that the station selec-
tor switches are for program type.
After searching for all the available RDS
stations, the radio will activate the pre-
viously used program type. If the pre-
viously used program type is not avail-
able, or if the radio has not yet
performed a program type search, the
radio will activate the first available pro-
gram type that has stations in memory.
The radio will preset the stations of the
current program type into the preset but-
tons.
These are accessible through the “TYPE”
switch. If more than 6 stations are found,
the radio will load the 6 strongest sta-
tions signal of the program type into the
presets.If no RDS stations are found, “No RDS
Stations Found” will be displayed and the
beep sounds. Then the radio will return
to the previous FM mode and frequency.
“Alert”
This type of announcement warns of na-
tional 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” ap-
pears on the screen when an alert an-
nouncement plays. The radio uses TA
volume during these announcements.
When an alert announcement comes on
the tuned radio station or a related net-
work station, you will hear it even if the
volume is muted or a cassette tape or
compact disc is playing. If the radio tunes
to a related network station for an alert
announcement, it will return to the origi-
nal station when the announcement is
finished. If the cassette tape or compact
disc player is playing, play will stop for
the announcement and resume when the
announcement is finished.

memory, the oldest message will be over-
written by the new message.To recall a radio text messages stored in
memory, touch the “RECALL” switch.

play.

Pushing this button turns on, RDS if it
was off, and the traffic announcement
feature will come on (“TRAF” will appear
and start blinking). When the radio is
tuned to a traffic station, “TRAF” will stop
blinking.
If the current station is not a traffic sta-
tion, the radio will start a traffic program
search in increasing frequency order. Dur-
ing a traffic program search, “TRAF
SEEK” will display. If no traffic programs
are found, “NOTHING” will display.
If the radio receives a traffic announce-
ment, it will interrupt the cassette player
or compact disc mode (if either one is
on), adjust the volume to Traffic An-
nouncement level, and broadcast the traf-
fic announcement. During a traffic an-
nouncement, “Traffic” will appear on the
screen. After traffic announcement is fin-
ished, it will return to the previous mode
and volume level.
TA volume memory function—The volume
level when receiving the traffic announce-
ment is memorized. When “TA” is received next time, the sys-
tem compares the volume before “TA” is
received and the memorized TA volume
and automatically selects the louder vol-
ume. However, the range of volume
memory is limited: if the volume received
previously is less than the minimum, this
volume will be used.
You can adjust the volume independently
from the memorized TA volume range
while receiving a TA station.
Traffic announcement can be canceled by
turning RDS off, or pressing the “TRAF”
button again.
