Finding a PTY Station

To select and find a desired PTY perform the following:

on the screen.
2. Select a category by turning the AUDIO knob.
3. Once the desired category is displayed, press either
SEEK arrow to select the category and take you to
the category's first station.
4. If you want to go to another station within that
category and P-TYPE is displayed, press either
SEEK arrow once. If the category is not displayed,
press either SEEK arrow twice to display the
category and then to go to another station.
5. If PTY times out and is no longer on the display, go
back to Step 1.
SCAN: You can also scan through the channels within
a category by performing the following:
1. Press P-TYP. The PTY symbol will be displayed on
the screen.
2. Select a category by turning the AUDIO knob.
3. Once the desired category is displayed, press and
hold either SEEK arrow, and the radio will begin
scanning within your chosen category.
4. Press and hold either SEEK arrow again to stop at
a particular station.
BAND (Alternate Frequency): Alternate frequency
allows the radio to switch to a stronger station with the
same program type. Press and hold BAND for two
seconds to turn alternate frequency on. AF ON
will appear on the display. The radio may switch to
stronger stations. Press and hold BAND again for two
seconds to turn alternate frequency off. AF OFF
will appear on the display. The radio will not switch to
other stations. When you turn the ignition off and then on
again, the alternate frequency feature will remain in
the last chosen position.
RDS Messages
ALERT!: Alert warns of local or national emergencies.
When an alert announcement comes on the current
radio station, ALERT! will appear on the display. You will
hear the announcement, even if the volume is muted
or a compact disc is playing. If a compact disc is playing,
play will stop during the announcement. You will not
be able to turn off alert announcements.
ALERT! will not be affected by tests of the emergency
broadcast system. This feature is not supported by
all RDS stations.
