PTY indicator
7When the current source is FM, the PTY indicator either lights up or flashes.
•If the PTY indicator lights up, PTY Standby Reception is activated. If a station starts broadcasting the selected PTY programme, this unit automatically tunes in to the station.
•If the PTY indicator flashes, PTY Standby Reception is not yet activated since the station being received does not provide the signals used for PTY Standby Reception.
To activate PTY Standby Reception, you need to tune in to another station providing these signals. Press ¢ or 4 to search for such a station. When a station providing these signals is tuned in, the PTY indicator stops flashing and remains lit. Now PTY Standby Reception is activated.
7When the current source is other than FM, the PTY indicator lights up.
If a station starts broadcasting the selected PTY programme, this unit automatically changes the source and tunes in to the station.
To deactivate the PTY Standby Reception, select “Off” in step 4 by turning the control dial. The PTY indicator disappears.
