Using RDS
Your audio system is equipped with a Radio Data
System (RDS). RDS features are available for use only
on FM stations that broadcast RDS information.
Using this system, the radio can do the following:
·Seek to stations broadcasting the selected type of
programming,
·receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies,
·display messages from radio stations, and
·seek to stations with traffic announcements.
This system relies upon receiving speci®c information
from these stations and will only work when the
information is available. In rare cases, a radio station
may broadcast incorrect information that will cause
the radio features to work improperly. If this happens,
contact the radio station.
While you are tuned to an RDS station, the station
name or the call letters will appear on the display instead
of the frequency. RDS stations may also provide the
time of day, a program type (PTY) for current
programming and the name of the program being
broadcast.

Battery Replacement
To change the batteries, do the following:
1. Remove the screw and open the battery door
located on the back of the remote control.
2. Replace the two AAA batteries in the compartment.
Make sure that they are installed correctly.
3. Replace the battery door and screw.
If the remote control is to be stored for a long period of
time, remove the batteries and keep them in a cool,
dry place.
Rear Seat Audio (RSA) (Without
Entertainment System)
This feature allows rear seat passengers to listen to and
control any of the music sources: radio, cassette
tapes and CDs. However, the rear seat passengers can
only control the music sources that the front seatpassengers are not listening to. For example, rear seat
passengers may listen to a cassette tape or CD
through headphones, while the driver listens to the radio
through the front speakers. The rear seat passengers
have control of the volume for each set of headphones.
Be aware that the front seat audio controls always
have priority over the RSA controls. If the front seat
passengers switch the source for the main radio
to a remote source, the RSA will play the same remote
source. The rear speakers will be muted when the
RSA power is turned on. You may operate the RSA
functions even when the main radio is off.
