Finding a PTY Station (RDS and XM™)

To select and find a desired PTY perform the following:

1. Press the P-TYPE button. P-TYPE and the last

selected PTY will be displayed on the screen.

2. Select a category by turning the P-TYPE 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 the category 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.

If both P-TYPE and TRAF are on, the radio will
search for stations with the selected PTY and traffic
announcements.

To use the PTY interrupt feature, press and hold the
P-TYPE button until you hear a beep on the PTY
you want to interrupt with. When selected, an asterisk
will appear beside that PTY on the display. You may
select multiple interrupts if desired. When you are
listening to a compact disc, the last selected RDS station
will interrupt play if that selected program type format
is broadcast.

SCAN: You can also scan through the channels within
a category by performing the following:

1. Press the P-TYPE button. P-TYPE and the last

selected PTY will be displayed on the screen.

2. Select a category by turning the P-TYPE knob.

3. Once the desired category is displayed, press and

hold either SCAN arrow, and the radio will begin
scanning within your chosen category.

4. Press either SCAN arrow again to stop at a

particular station.
