NOTE

• If the system takes time to show the RDS

information received from a station, “PS”, “PTY” or
“RT” may appear on the display window.

• When PS, PTY, or RT signals appear on the display

window, some special characters and marks may
not be displayed correctly.

One of the advantages of RDS is that you can
locate a particular kind of program by specifying
the corresponding PTY code.
• The PTY Search is applicable only to the preset

stations.

and PTY code flash. When “SEARCH” is
pressed while the selected frequency and
PTY code are flashing, the system
automatically starts to find the next station.
After the frequency and PTY code stop
flashing or if any other operation is done, the
system automatically tunes in to the station.

To stop searching, press SEARCH.

If no program is found, “NOTFOUND” appears
on the display window and the system returns to
the last received station.
