    Hello

    I would search for this but that is not working at this point.

    Basically I am wondering if the stereo system supports RDS so that it displays the data stream that some stations send. I.E. song titles, artist name, etc.

    Thanks

    Does the JBL Receiver Have Automatic Volume Control?

    I'm renting the dealer's TRAC 05 Prius with the base sound system (I should say base radio). I'm getting really tired of lowering the volume when I stop and raising it again when I'm moving. Does the JBL system have automatic volume control?

    I hope so!

    Thank you.

    While it seems like a small thing, I find RDS useful and am glad to hear it has this.

    Why didn't you ask your dog (observing your avatar)? Doesn't he drive a Prius?

    It's funny since I never knew that Brian from Family Guy drove a Prius until I started researching this car. B)

    RDS does not work while car is in motion though(heh whats the point), HOWEVER a smaller version of it (harder to see, go figure) appears in the upper left corner.
