To stop the ASPM operation before it is complete:
Press and hold the RDS (ASPM/PTY) button for more than 3 seconds whilst it is scanning for stations.
The stations which are already stored in memory will be kept there.
Notes:
If the same station is broadcasting on different frequencies, the strongest frequency will be stored in memory.
Any station which has the same frequency as one stored in memory will not be stored.
If 20 stations have already been stored in memory, the scan will be aborted. If you want to redo the ASPM operation, erase the preset memory.
If the RDS signals are very weak, station names may not be stored in memory.
To store a station name again if the wrong name was stored in memory:
It may be impossible to store station names in memory using the ASPM function if there is lots of noise or if the signal is too weak. In this case, perform as follows.
1Press the PRESET ( or ) button to check whether the names are correct.
2If you find a wrong name during receiving the station, wait until the correct name will be displayed. And then press the MEMORY/ DISP button.
3Within 30 seconds, press the MEMORY/DISP button whilst the preset channel number is flashing.
The new station name has been stored in memory correctly.
Notes:
The same station name can be stored in different channels.
In a certain area or during certain time periods, the station names may temporarily be different.
Notes for RDS operation
If any of the following events occur, it does not mean that the unit is faulty:
"PS", "NO PS" and a station name appear alternately, and the unit does not operate properly.
If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a station is conducting tests, the RDS reception function may not work properly.
When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too weak, information like the station name may not be displayed.
"NO PS", "NO PTY" or "NO RT" will flash for about 5 seconds, and then the frequency will be displayed.
Notes for radio text:
The first 7 characters of the radio text will appear for 4 seconds and then they will scroll across the display.
If you tune in to an RDS station which is not broadcasting any radio text, "NO RT" will be displayed when you switch to the radio text position.
Whilst radio text data is received or when the text contents change, "RT" will be displayed.
