The unit begins searching all preset stations, and calls a station of the program type if such a station is found.
*When the right side of the PRESET STATIONS button is pressed, the search is performed from “A1” toward higher numbers of the preset stations (A1, A2 ... A8, B1, B2, ...). If, however, “A3” is currently being called for example, the search begins from the next station “A4”.
When the left side of the PRESET STATIONS button is pressed, the search is performed in reverse order.
If the called station is not the desired one, press the PRESET STATIONS button again to search for another station of the same program type.

Note
If no station is found by this function, after searching all preset stations, “NO PTY” flashes for about 3 seconds on the display, and then it returns to the mode which had been obtained before the searching was performed.
