Radio Data System (RDS)
The radio may have the Radio Data System (RDS)
feature. RDS is available for use only on FM stations
that broadcast RDS information. This system relies upon
receiving specific information from these stations and
only works when the information is available. While the
radio is tuned to an FM-RDS station, the station name
or call letters display. In rare cases, a radio station can
broadcast incorrect information that causes the radio
features to work improperly. If this happens, contact the
radio station.
Playing the Radio
O
(Power/Volume): Press to turn the system on
and off.
Turn clockwise or counterclockwise to increase or
decrease the volume.
The radio goes to the previous volume setting when the
radio is turned on. The volume can still be adjusted
by using the volume knob.
Speed Compensated Volume (SCV): The Radio
with CD (MP3) and the Radio with Six-Disc CD (MP3)
have SCV. SCV automatically adjusts the radio volume
to compensate for road and wind noise as the vehicle
increases or decreases speed while driving. The volume
level should sound about the same while driving.
To activate SCV:
1. Set the radio volume to the desired level.
2. Press the MENU button to display the radio
setup menu.
3. Press the pushbutton under the AUTO VOLUM
(automatic volume) tab on the radio display.
4. Press the pushbutton under the desired Speed
Compensated Volume setting (OFF, Low, Med,
or High) to select the level of radio volume
compensation. The display times out after
approximately 10 seconds. Each higher setting
allows for more radio volume compensation at
faster vehicle speeds.
