A Title (English)

What is RDS?

RDS (Radio Data System) is a system for transmitting data along with FM programs. This data, which is inaudible, provides a variety of features such as: program service name, program type display, traffic announcement standby, automatic tuning and program type tuning, intended to aid radio listeners in tuning to a desired station.

Note:

• RDS service may not be provided by all stations.

• RDS functions, like AF (Alternative frequencies search) and TA (Traffic Announcement standby), are only active when your radio is tuned to RDS stations.

Program Service Name Display

With this function, the names of networks/stations providing RDS services replace the frequency on the display a few seconds after they are tuned in.

• When you want to know PTY Information or the frequency of the current station, change the display.

Each press of the DISPLAY button selects the display in the following order: Program Service Name (A) = PTY Information and Frequency = Program Service Name (B)

Note:

• After switching displays, if you do not perform an operation within 8 seconds, the Program Service

Name (A) is automatically displayed. (When the Program Service Name (B) is selected, the display remains.)

7 PTY Information

PTY (Program Type ID code) information for the currently tuned station appears on the display for 8 seconds. The information is correlated with the list in the section “PTY List” on page 26.

Note:

• If a PTY code of zero is received from a station, “None” will be displayed. This indicates that the

station has not defined its program contents.

• If the signal is too weak for this product to pick up the PTY code, the PTY Information Display is

blank.

AF Function (AF)

The AF (Alternative Frequencies search) function is used to search for other frequencies in the same network as the currently tuned station. It automatically retunes the receiver to another frequency in the network which is broadcasting a stronger signal when there are problems with reception of the currently tuned station or better reception is possible on a different frequency.

Note:

• AF tunes the receiver only to RDS stations when you use Seek tuning or BSM Auto Memory with the “AF ” indicator ON.

• When you recall a preset station, the tuner may update the preset station with a new frequency from the station’s AF list. (This is only available when using presets on the FM1 and FM2 bands.) No preset number appears on the display if the RDS data for the station received differs from that for the originally stored station.

• Sound may be temporarily interrupted by another program during an AF frequency search.

• When the tuner is tuned to a non-RDS station, the “AF ” indicator flashes.

• AF can be switched ON or OFF independently for each FM band.

Activating/Deactivating the AF Function

AF is set to ON by default.

1. Press the FUNCTION button and select the AF mode (AF) in the Function Menu.

2. Activate or deactivate AF while in an FM band.

PI Seek Function

The tuner searches for another frequency broadcasting the same programming. “PI SEEK” appears on the display and the radio volume is muted during a PI Seek. The muting is discontinued after completion of the PI Seek, whether or not the PI seek has succeeded. If the PI Seek is unsuccessful, the tuner returns to the previous frequency.

PI Seek

If the tuner fails to locate a suitable alternative frequency or if the broadcasting signal is too weak for proper reception, the PI Seek will automatically start.

Auto PI Seek (for preset station)

When preset stations cannot be recalled, as when traveling long distances, this product can be set to perform PI Seek also during preset recall. The default setting for Auto PI Seek is OFF.

Note:

• Refer to “Initial Setting” for details on how to switch Auto PI Seek ON/OFF.

Regional Function (REG)

When AF is used to retune the tuner automatically, REG (regional) limits the selection to stations broadcasting regional programs.

Note:

• Regional programming and regional networks are organized differently depending on the country (i.e., they may change according to the hour, state or broadcast area).

• The preset number may disappear on the display if the tuner tunes in a regional station which differs from the originally set station.

• REG can be switched ON or OFF independently for each FM band.

Activating/Deactivating the REG Function

The REG function is set to ON by default.

1. Press the FUNCTION button and select the REG mode (REG) in the Function Menu.

2. Activate or deactivate REG while in an FM band.

TA Function (TA)

The TA (Traffic Announcement standby) function lets you receive traffic announcements automatically, no matter what source you are listening to. The TA function can be activated for either a TP station (a station that broadcasts traffic information) or an enhanced other network’s TP station (a station carrying information which cross-references TP stations).

Activating/Deactivating the TA Function

1. Tune in a TP or enhanced other network’s TP station.

The TP indicator (“ ”) lights when the tuner is tuned to a TP station or an enhanced other network’s TP station.

2. Activate the TA function.

The TA indicator (“ ”) lights, indicating that the tuner is waiting for traffic announcements.

Repeat the preceding operation when no traffic announcement is being received to deactivate the TA function.

Note:

• You can also switch the TA Function ON/OFF in the Function Menu.

• The system switches back to the original source following traffic announcement reception.

• The TA function can be activated from sources other than tuner if the tuner was last set to the FM band but not if it was last set to the MW/LW band.

• If the tuner was last set to FM, turning on the TA function lets you operate other tuning functions while listening to sources other than tuner.

• Only TP or enhanced other network’s TP stations are tuned in during the Seek Tuning mode when the TA indicator (“ ”) is ON.

• Only TP or

enhanced other network’s TP stations are stored by BSM when the TA indicator

Canceling Traffic Announcements

• Press the TA button while a traffic announcement is being received to cancel the announcement and return to the original source.

The announcement is canceled but the tuner remains in the TA mode until the TA button is pressed again.

Adjusting the TA Volume

When a traffic announcement begins, the volume adjusts automatically to a preset level to enable you to hear the announcement clearly.

• Set the volume by adjusting it during reception of a traffic announcement.

The newly set volume is stored in memory and recalled for subsequent traffic announcements.

TP Alarm Function

About 30 seconds after the TP indicator (“ ”) is extinguished due to a weak signal, a 5 second beep sounds to remind you to select another TP or

enhanced other network’s TP sta-

tion.

• If you are listening to the tuner, tune in another TP station or enhanced other network’s TP station.

In sources other than tuner, the tuner automatically seeks out the TP station with the strongest signal in the current area 10 (or 30)* seconds after the TP indicator (“ ”) disappears from the display.
