The Radio

Using the Radio

Data System (RDS)

Radio Data System (RDS) is a

broadcasting service that allows radio

stations to send additional information

along with the regular programme

signal. This player offers convenient RDS

features like station name display,

location of stations by programme type,

etc. RDS is available only on FM stations.

Notes

• Not all FM stations

provide RDS services,

nor do they provide the

same type of services. If

you are not familiar

with the RDS system,

check with your local

radio stations for

details on RDS services

in your area.

• RDS may not work

properly if the station

you tuned in is not

transmitting the RDS

signal properly or if the

signal intensity is weak.

Before receiving RDS broadcasts

Be sure to preset the FM stations according to the

procedure on page 16.

Receiving RDS broadcasts

Simply select a station from the FM band.

When you tune in a

station that provides

RDS services, “RDS” will

be displayed.
