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.)

When an emergency broadcast (ALARM signal) is sent from an FM station:

The receiver automatically tunes in the station except in the following cases:

•When you are listening to non-RDS stations (all AM — MW/LW and some FM stations).

•When the receiver is in standby mode.

While receiving an emergency broadcast, “ALARM” appears on the display.

The TEST signal is used for equipment test — whether it can receive the ALARM signal correctly.

The TEST signal makes the receiver work in the same way as the ALARM signal does. If the TEST signal is received, the receiver automatically switches to the station broadcasting the TEST signal. While receiving the test signal, “TEST” appears on the display.
