Searching for RDS programs
One of the most useful features of RDS is the ability to
search for a particular kind of radio program. You can
search for any of the program types listed on the previous
page.

RDS is only possible in the FM band.
2 Press the CHARACTER/SEARCH button.
SEARCH shows in the display.
3 Use the MULTI JOG dial to select the program
type you want to hear.
• You can also use the + / – buttons on the front panel to
select the program type.
4 Press ENTER to search for the program type.
The system starts searching through the station presets
for a match. When it finds one, the search stops and the
station plays for five seconds.
5 If you want to keep listening to the station, press
ENTER within the 5 seconds.
If you don’t press ENTER , searching resumes.
If NO PTY is displayed it means the tuner couldn’t find
that program type at the time of the search.
Note
• RDS searches station presets only. If no stations
have been preset, or if the program type could not be
found among the station presets
NO PTY is
displayed. FINISH means the search is complete.
