Radio data system (RDS)

1- PWR (Power ON/OFF) switch . 8- SEEK (Down-seek) button. 2- AM/FM (FM/MW/LW selection ) button. 9- CT (Clock time) indicator. 3- Memory select buttons. 10- RDS (Radio data system) indicator. 4- TP (Traffic programme) button. 11- TP (Traffic programme identification) indicator. 5- PTY (Programme type) button. 12- PTY (Programme type) indicator. 6- TUNE switch. 13- REG (Regional programme) indicator. 7- SEEK (Up-seek) button. 14- Display.

RDS uses PI (programme identification) signal and AF (alternative frequency) list transmitted in addition to the normal FM broadcasting programmes, and picks up the FM stations that are transmitting the same programme from the AF list and automatically tunes to the station with the strongest signal intensity. Therefore, you can continue listening to one programme in, for example, a long distance driving without retuning to the other station transmitting the same programme when you are leaving the service area of the currently receiving station. The RDS radio also features the limited reception of the programme types, the break-in reception of the traffic announcement to the EON (enhanced other network) and emergency broadcast, and the limited/unlimited reception of the regional programmes.

AF (Alternative Frequencies) function

The AF function finds a station broadcasting the same programme and selects the station with the strongest signal of AF lists. The AF function is turned on at all times unless you manually switch it off. The AF function can be turned ON and OFF. Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-29.

CT (Clock Time) function

The clock can be set automatically by using the signal from the local RDS stations. Refer to “Digital clock” on page 5-74.

REG (Regional) function

REG function limits to receive the stations broadcasting regional programmes. Regional programming and regional networks are organised differently depending on the country or area (they may be changed according to the hour, state, or broadcast area), so if you don’t want to receive the regional programmes automatically, you can set up REG ON not to receive regional programmes. The REG function can be turned ON and OFF. Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-29.

PI (Programme identification) search function

When travelling long distance and the recalled preset station is weak, the radio searches another frequency broadcasting the same programming with the same PI code in AF list. If there are no frequencies broadcasting the same programming, the radio searches a frequency broadcasting the regional programming. The radio succeeds in searching the regional programming, then the display shows the REG indicator (13). If the radio does not succeed in searching the regional programming, the radio returns to the recalled preset station. If the radio does not succeed in searching the regional programming, the radio returns to the recalled preset station.

PTY (Programme type)

RDS broadcasts are classified according to programme type (PTY) as follows. Use the TUNE switch (6) to select your desired PTY.

1. NEWS. 2. AFFAIRS (Current affairs). 3. INFO (Information). 4. SPORT. 5. EDUCATE (Education). 6. DRAMA. 7. CULTURE. 8. SCIENCE. 9. VARIED. 10. POP M (Pop music). 11. ROCK M (Rock music). 12. EASY M (Easy music). 13. LIGHT M (Light classics). 14. CLASSICS. 15. OTHER M (Other music). 16. WEATHER (Weather information). 17. FINANCE. 18. CHILDREN. 19. SOCIAL. 20. RELIGION. 21. PHONE IN. 22. TRAVEL. 23. LEISURE. 24. JAZZ. 25. COUNTRY. 26. NATION M (National music). 27. OLDIES. 28. FOLK M (Folk music). 29. DOCUMENT.

To search for a broadcast of the desired programme type: 1. Press the PTY button (5). 2. Turn the TUNE switch (6) or press a memory select button (3) to select your desired PTY. 3. Two seconds after a desired PTY has been selected, the radio will begin to search for a broadcast of your selected PTY. During search, the selected PTY on the display blinks. 4. When the radio picks up a station with your desired PTY, the display will show the name of the station.

NOTE:
● If the SEEK button (7 to 8) is pressed, the radio will try to find out another broadcast of the same programme type as currently selected.
● If no station is found with your desired PTY, the display will show “EMPTY” for about 5 seconds and the radio will return to the previous station.

How to enter PTYs in the memory

As many as 6 PTYs can be entered in the memory. Follow the steps described below. 1. Press either the TUNE switch (6) to tune the PTY to be entered in the memory. 2. Press one of the memory select buttons (3) for 2 seconds or longer. The sound will be momentarily interrupted while the PTY is being entered into the memory.

Then, it will show the name of the station broadcasting the traffic information to which you will listen. The volume level is set separately for listening to normal audio programmes and for listening to traffic information. The volume level will therefore change automatically to that set when traffic information was last received. When the traffic information broadcast is over, the radio will return to the previously received programme and to the corresponding volume level. 3. Press the TP button (4) to return to the previous condition.

NOTE:
● While “TP” is illuminated, the radio stops only at TP stations, even if the TUNE switch (6) is turned.
