Radio Data System (RDS)
The audio system has a Radio Data System (RDS).
RDS features are available for use only on FM stations
that broadcast RDS information.
With RDS, the radio can do the following:
Seek to stations broadcasting the selected type of
programming.
Receive announcements concerning local and
national emergencies.
Display messages from radio stations.
Seek to stations with traffic announcements.
This system relies upon receiving specific information
from these stations and only works when the information
is available. In rare cases, a radio station could
broadcast incorrect information that causes the radio
features to work improperly. If this happens, contact the
radio station.
While the radio is tuned to an RDS station, the station
name or call letters display instead of the frequency.
RDS stations can also provide the time of day, a
program type (PTY) for current programming, and the
name of the program being broadcast.
The RDS function does not work with XM™.
