RDS Trouble-shooting Guide

Incorrect response from RDS Reason and rectification

Radio does not display programme name. Check that RDS is turned on by pressing and holding the TA button until the
display confirms RDS ON. If the radio does not display a programme service
name, it is not broadcasting RDS data, or you are in a poor reception area.
Try re-tuning to another station with RDS.

Station name is lost and displays frequency only. Radio has lost reception of the RDS data due to vehicle moving out of transmitter
range, loss of signal in a tunnel, under a garage forecourt canopy, or similar
