RECEIVING RDS STATIONS
Notes
cRDS data service cannot be utilized by this unit if the received signal is not strong enough. Especially, the RT (Radio Text mode) needs much data to be received, so it may occur that RT mode cannot be displayed even if other RDS modes (PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed.

cThere may be a case that RDS data reception is not possible due to poor reception conditions. If so, press the AUTO/MAN’L button so that “AUTO” goes off from the display. Though the reception mode is changed to monaural by this operation, when you change the display to an RDS mode, RDS data may be displayed.
cIf the signal strength gets weakened by external interference during receiving an RDS station, the RDS data service may be cut off suddenly and turn into the frequency display mode.
Calling a program of your desired program type from among preset RDS stations (PTY SEEK)
By designating a program type, the unit automatically searches all preset FM stations for an RDS station which broadcasts a program of that program type.
*There are 15 program types to classify RDS stations. For details, refer to page 26.
1 Turn the unit into the PTY SEEK mode by pressing the PTY SEEK MODE button.
*The name of the program type of the station now being received or “NEWS” flashes on the display.
2 Select the desired program type with the PTY SELECT
or 
button.
*If there is no operation for about 20 seconds, this mode is canceled and turns into the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS mode.
3 Press the PTY SEEK START button.
The unit begins searching all preset FM stations.
*“PTY HOLD” lights up on the display.
*The preset number indicator, the name of the program type and “AUTO” flash. The preset station number changes rapidly in sequence.
cIf a station which broadcasts a program of the program type is found, the unit stops at the station and turns into the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS mode.
cIf the called station is not the desired one, press the PTY SEEK START button once more before “PTY HOLD” goes out from the display. The unit begins searching for another station which broadcasts a program of the same program type.
cIf no station is found, “NO PTY” appears and then returns to frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS mode.
*If the PTY SEEK START button is pressed once more during searching, this mode is canceled and turns into the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS mode.
To cancel this function
If the PTY SEEK MODE button is pressed once more, the PTY SEEK mode is canceled and turns into the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS mode.
