News Bulletin Functionwith PTY News Timeout Setting

You can arrange to have news bulletins interrupt your current listening source, including other radio stations. When the News Bulletin function is on, the PTY News Timeout setting allows you to set the interval during which further news interruption cannot take place. You can adjust the PTY news interruption period from 10 to 90 minutes for each journey.

Display and setting:

"NEWS OFF/ 00min(M)/ 10min(M)/ 20min(M)/ 30min(M)/ 40min(M)/ 50min(M)/ 60min(M)/ 70min(M)/ 80min(M)/ 90min(M)"

(min(M)= minutes)

:When you select the news interruption timeout interval, the News function turns on and the NEWS indicator lights up. When a news bulletin is received, "NEWS" will be displayed and reception will begin at the preset volume.

NOTE

If you choose the "20min(M)" setting, further news bulletins will not be received for 20 minutes once the first news bulletin is received.

This function is only available if the desired station sends PTY- code for news bulletin or belongs to <Enhanced Other Network>-Network sending PTY-code for news bulletin.

If you turn on the news bulletin function in the MW/LW band, the band is switched automatically to the FM band. However, the MW/LW band is not returned to when you turn off the function.

Local Seek Function

With the local seek function turned on, auto seek tuning skips stations with relatively poor reception.

Display and setting:

"Local.S/LO.S ON" : The local seek function is on.

"Local.S/LO.S OFF" : The local seek function is off.

Selecting Tuning Mode

You can choose from three tuning modes: auto seek, preset station seek, and manual. The "AUTO 1" indicator lights up when auto seek tuning is selected, and the "AUTO 2" indicator lights when preset station seek tuning is selected.

Display and setting:

"Auto/AUTO 1" : Auto seek tuning mode

"Auto/AUTO 2" : Preset station seek tuning mode

"Manual/MANUL" : Manual tuning mode

Auto Memory Entry

You can automatically store all the receivable frequencies in the band currently being listened to, and then recall them with the touch of a button later. This function is especially useful when you are travelling and do not know what stations are available. Up to 6 frequencies can be stored this way.

Display and setting:

1Select the display "Auto-Memory/A-MEMORY" during the selecting function in the menu system.

2Hold down either the 4 or ¢ button for two seconds or more to start auto memory function.

The numbers of the preset station buttons showed in order. When all the stations in a certain band are stored in the preset memory, the auto memory entry stops. The tuner then plays the last station received.

NOTE

When the AF function is turned on whilst auto memory entry takes place, only RDS stations (i.e., stations with RDS capability) are stored. RDS stations that have been preset for FM1 cannot also be preset in FM2 or FM3.

When the local seek function is turned whilst auto memory entry takes place, stations with poor reception are not stored.

When the Traffic Information function is on , only the local traffic information station frequency will be stored.
