Radio Data System (RDS, also referred to as RBDS) -HU- 803
only
This feature, which may not work in your area, functions only with FM br\
oadcasts. The HU-803 radio in
your car is equipped with an advanced system allowing information from b\
roadcasters to be transmitted
visually, as text, together with the audio signal. This information is t\
hen decoded by the radio and made
available for several new and unique features.
The RDS or Radio Data System operates in the FM band only, and the infor\
mation transmitted is
supplied exclusively by participating broadcasters. Volvo has no control over the accuracy of the data
or information. Please refer to the following pages regarding specific d\
escriptions and operation of these
functions.
Coverage by local broadcasters may be limited at this time, but as the t\
echnology and benefits grow, you
will find the radio in your car is equipped to take advantage of this sy\
stem.

pg. 166 Audio systems - general information
Cassettes
l Store cassettes in their cases.
l Do not touch the tape surface with your fingers.
l Tapes should not be exposed to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. \
l Keep tapes away from oil, grease and other contaminants.
l For optimal tape deck performance Volvo does not recommend the use of C-\
120 tapes.
l Take up slack using a pen or a pencil before inserting a cassette in the\
cassette slot.
Cassette cleaning
We recommend the use of the Volvo Cleaning Cassette available as a genui\
ne Volvo accessory. Regular
use improves sound quality, cleans vital parts and prevents tape tangle.\

Compact disc care
l Before using a new disc for the first time, remove any burrs in the cent\
er/outer edge by running the
stem of a pen or similar object around the hole/edge of the disc.
l Use high quality discs only.
l Keep the discs clean. Wipe them with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth, wor\
king from the center outwards.
If necessary, dampen the cloth with a neutral soap solution. Dry thoroug\
hly before using.
l Never use cleaning spray or antistatic liquid. Use only cleaners specifi\
cally made for CD's.
l Use discs of the correct size only (3.5" discs should never be used). \
l Do not put tape or labels on the disc itself.
l Volvo does not recommend the use of plastic outer rings on the disc.
l Condensation may occur on discs/optical components of the changer in col\
d winter weather. The disc
can be dried with a clean, lint-free cloth. Optical components in the CD\
changer may, however, take up
to one hour to dry off.
l Never attempt to play a disc which is damaged in any way.
l When not in use, the discs should be stored in their covers. Avoid stori\
ng discs in excessive heat,
direct sunlight or dusty locations.
