10 ` `223 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 infor-
mation 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 infor-
mation transmitted is supplied exclusively by
participating broadcasters. Volvo has no con-
trol over the accuracy of the data or informa-
tion.
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 pre-
set, the radio also stores RBDS program infor-
mation 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.
