RBDS functions HU-650/HU-850
Radio Broadcast Data System - RBDS
This feature, which may not be available in your area, functions only wi\
th FM broadcasts. The radio in
your vehicle is equipped with an advanced system allowing information fr\

transmitted visually, as text, together with the audio signal. This info\
rmation 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, an\
d 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 t\
echnology and benefits grow, you
will find the radio in your vehicle is equipped to take advantage of thi\
s system.
