If the broadcaster has special features, the following indicators light in the display.

STEREO: The broadcaster you are listening to is in stereo.

MULTI: The broadcaster you are listening to is simulcast in multiple languages or with different services. For more information, refer to page 14. CODED: The broadcaster is encoded, and cannot be listened to without a password. For more information, refer to page 16.

4When the MULTI indicator lights, the broadcaster is transmitting multiple programs within the same BCID.

Press the LANG button to select the program (PGM) you want. By setting the User Preferred Language and the User Preferred Program Type, when a BCID with multiple programs is selected, the program with the selected language or program type is automatically tuned. For more information, refer to pages 14 and 15.

Notes:

When selecting a broadcaster, the information from each broadcaster may take several seconds to receive. During this time, “WAIT” appears in the display.

Occasionally, a WS broadcaster may broadcast a single program during a certain time period and then broadcast simultaneous programs in different languages or with different content at other times. When this type of program change occurs, “CHANGING” appears in the display. During this time, if the TUNING/SELECT dial is turned, ”WAIT” appears in the display. When “CHANG- ING” disappears, the TUNING/SELECT dial can be used to select another broadcaster. If “CHANGING” doesn’t disappear from the display for some time, turn the unit off and then on again.

Occasionally, a selected program may be transmitting non-audio information. When this occurs, “NO AUDIO” appears in the display alternately with the broadcaster’s Service Label (SL).

WS

Even if a broadcaster is available in the service area where you live, reception of the signal for that broad- caster may not be possible in all parts of the service area. This is not a malfunction.

If the LEARN function has established that more than one frequency is available in your area, turning the TUNING/ SELECT dial will switch to broadcasters on other available frequencies automatically.

When selecting the WS band, be sure that the telescopic antenna is retracted and locked in its holding position. Having the telescopic antenna extended may interfere with WS antenna reception.

One button WS band operation

When this unit is in standby, pressing the WS button turns the power on, selects the WS band, and tunes in the last broadcaster received.
