RECEIVING RDS STATIONS
Notes
• RDS data service cannot be utilized by this unit if the
received signal is not strong enough. Especially, the RT
(Radio Text mode) needs much data to be received, so it
may occur that RT mode cannot be displayed even if other
RDS modes (PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed.

• There may be a case that RDS data reception is not
possible due to poor reception conditions. If so, press the
AUTO/MAN'L button so that "AUTO" goes off from the
display. Though the reception mode is changed to
monaural by this operation, when you change the display to
an RDS mode, RDS data may be displayed.
• If the signal strength gets weakened by external
interference during receiving an RDS station, the RDS data
service may be cut off suddenly and turn into the frequency
display mode.
Calling a program of your desired
program type from among preset
RDS stations (PTY SEEK)
By designating a program type, the unit automatically
searches all preset FM stations for an RDS station which
broadcasts a program of that program type.
* There are 15 program types to classify RDS stations. For
details, refer to page 20.
1
Turn the unit into the PTY SEEK mode by pressing the
PTY SEEK MODE button.
* The name of the program type of the station now being
received or "NEWS" flashes on the display.
2
Select the desired program type with the
button.
* If there is no operation for about 20 seconds, this mode
is canceled and turns into the frequency display. If the
station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS
mode.
3
Press the PTY SEEK START button.
The unit begins searching all preset FM stations.
* "PTY HOLD" lights up on the display.
* The preset number indicator, the name of the program
type and "AUTO" flash. The preset number changes
rapidly in sequence.
• If a station which broadcasts a program of the program
type is found, the unit stops at the station and turns into the
frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it
turns into the PS mode.
• If the called station is not the desired one, press the PTY
SEEK START button once more before "PTY HOLD" goes
out from the display. The unit begins searching for another
station which broadcasts a program of the same program
type.
• If no station is found, "NO PTY" appears and then returns
to frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that,
it turns into the PS mode.
* If the PTY SEEK START button is pressed once more
during searching, this mode is canceled and turns into
the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after
that, it turns into the PS mode.
To cancel this function
If the PTY SEEK MODE button is pressed once more, the
PTY SEEK mode is canceled and turns into the frequency
display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the
PS mode.
