Searching for a Program by PTY Codes
One of the advantages of the RDS service is that you can locate a particular kind of program from the preset channels (see page 13) by specifying the PTY codes.
•To stop searching any time during the process, press PTY SEARCH while searching.
•When pressing the buttons on the remote control, make sure that you have selected the FM station using the remote control. If not, the RDS operation buttons do not work for RDS operation.
(Pressing FM/AM activates the remote control for RDS operation.)
