RBDS (Radio Broadcast Data System)

RBDS is a service used by radio stations to transmit data
outside normal radio broadcast signals.
When an RBDS station is received, you can immediately find
out what kind of data is being transmitted by looking at the
program service name, which appears in the display after the
frequency.
The AF indicator turns on when an RBDS station is being
received.

Alarm

When an emergency transmission (announcing disasters, etc.)
is made, the current function will be interrupted to allow the
warning to be received under the following conditions:
during tuner reception, or when the Traffic Information
function is turned on.
