About RDS Features
What is RDS?
Introduced by the European Broadcasting
Union (EBU) in 1987, the Radio Data System
(RDS) allows information such as station
names to be received via the 57 kHz sub-
carrier signal of FM broadcasts. However, the
availability of RDS data varies depending on
the area. It therefore may not be always be
possible to receive RDS information.
Using the RDS functions
The radio supports the following RDS
functions.
RDS function Description
Station name
display
•Displays the station
name you are listening
to.
PTY
(programme
type)
•Displays the programme
type of the received
programme.
RT (radio text) •Displays the free-form
textual information.
Notes
• The RDS functions will not be activated if the
FM station being received is not transmitting
RDS data. They may also not work properly in
areas where RDS transmissions are in the
experimental stage.
• If the radio signal being received is weak, it
may take time to receive the RDS data.

of the plugs of other manufacturers may be
different.
• When operating the unit on batteries, it is
recommended that you remove the AC
adaptor from the wall outlet and the DC IN 5V
jack. Disconnect the plug of the external power
source before operating the unit.
• Use the unit within a temperature range of 0°C
to 40°C. If it is used in temperatures higher
than this range, the display may gradually turn
black. If it is used in temperatures lower than
this range, the display may change very slowly.
(These irregularities will disappear and there
will be no damage to the unit when the unit is
used in the recommended temperature range
again.)
