Using the Radio Data System (RDS)
RDS is a broadcasting service which a growing number of FM stations provide. These FM stations send additional signals along with their regular programme signals. They send their station names, and information about the type of programme such as sport, music, etc. When tuned to an RDS station, "RDS" and the station name will be displayed. "TP" (Traffic Programme) will appear on the display when the received broadcast carries traffic information, and "TA" (Traffic Announcement) will appear whilst a traffic information is on air. "PTYI" (Dynamic PTY Indicator) will appear whilst the Dynamic PTY station is received. You can control the RDS by using the remote control only. Station name (PS) Programme type (PTY)
Information provided by RDS
Press the SHIFT button and then the RDS DISPLAY button. The display changes as follows each time they are pressed.

Frequency

Radio text (RT)
When you are tuning in to a station other than an RDS station or to an RDS station which sends weak signal, the display will change in the following order:

NO PTY NO RT

FM 98.80 MHz
Using the Auto Station Programme Memory (ASPM)
Whilst in the ASPM operation mode, the tuner will automatically search for new RDS stations. Up to 40 stations can be stored. If you have already stored some stations in memory, the number of new stations you can store will be less.
To stop the ASPM operation before it is complete:
Press the RDS ASPM button whilst it is scanning for stations. The stations which are already stored in memory will be kept there.
If the same station is broadcasting on different frequencies, the strongest frequency will be stored in memory. Any station which has the same frequency as one stored in memory will not be stored. If 40 stations have already been stored in memory, the scan will be aborted. If you want to redo the ASPM operation, erase the preset memory. If no stations have been stored in memory, "END" will appear for about 4 seconds. If the RDS signals are very weak, station names may not be stored in memory.
Press the TUNER button to select the FM stereo band.
