RBDS functions HU-650/HU-850
Radio Broadcast Data System - RBDS
This feature, which  may not be  available in your area, functions only with FM  broadcasts. The radio in your vehicle is
equipped with an  advanced system allowing information from  broadcasters to be  transmitted visually, as text, together
with the audio signal. This information is then decoded by the radio and  made available for several new and  unique
features.
The RBDS or Radio Broadcast Data System  operates in the FM  band  only, and  the information transmitted is supplied
exclusively by participating broadcasters. Volvo has no control over the accuracy of the data or information.
Coverage by local  broadcasters may be  limited at this  time, but as the technology  and  benefits grow, you will find the
radio in your vehicle is equipped to take advantage of this  system.
PI (Program Information) Seek:
When an  FM  station has been stored  as a  preset, the radio also stores RBDS program information if it is available.
When the preset is selected at a  later time, the radio tries to access updated program information. In weak signal areas,
there may be  a  delay before the station becomes audible.  During this  delay, "PI seek" will be  displayed and  there will
be  no sound.
PI seek can be  interrupted by pressing EXIT.
Radio text
Certain  RBDS stations broadcast program information, which  can be  shown in the display. The text will be  shown
twice in the display.
To start this function:

Station information will be  shown twice in the display.
Alarm
Alarms  bulletins  are transmitted automatically  by certain RBDS stations. The function cannot be  deactivated.

The programmed button on your HomeLink® Universal Transceiver should now operate  your garage door opener. The
original handheld transmitter can also be  used, as desired, to operate  the garage door.
The remaining two HomeLink® buttons  can be  programmed in the same way. In the event of any  problems in
programming  the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, call  toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).

HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
Operating the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver

To operate,  the key  must  be  turned to the "accessory" position (II) or the engine must  be  running. Press the
programmed HomeLink® button to activate the garage door, driveway gate, security lighting, home security system,
etc.
Your original hand -held transmitters may, of course, be  used at any  time.
Erasing programmed buttons
Individual buttons  cannot be  erased. To erase all three programmed buttons:
- Turn  the ignition key  to the "accessory" position (II).
- Hold down the two outside buttons  on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver for about 20 seconds, until
HomeLink®'s indicator light begins to flash.
- Release both buttons.
The HomeLink® buttons  can be  reprogrammed  using the procedures  described on the previous  page.

buttons.

 For your own security, erase all programmed buttons  on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver when you sell your
vehicle.
 Metallic sun protection films should not be  used on any  windows in a  vehicle equipped with HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver. This could interfere  with the transceiver's function.
