1 Press (PTY/LIST) during FM reception until “PTY” appears.

The current programme type name appears if the station is transmitting the PTY data. “- - - - -” appears if the received station is not an RDS station, or if the RDS data has not been received.

2 Press (PTY/LIST) repeatedly until the desired programme type appears.

The programme types appear in the order shown in the above table. Note that you cannot select “None” (Not specified) for searching.

3 Push the SEEK/AMS control up or down. The unit starts searching for a station broadcasting the selected programme type. When the unit finds the programme, the programme type appears again for five seconds.

“NO” and the programme type appear alternately for five seconds if the unit cannot find the programme type. It then returns to the previous station.
