To turn the unit into the PS mode or PTY mode

Press the FREQ/PS/PTY button. Whenever pressed, the mode changes into the PS mode, PTY mode and returns to usual mode in turn.

*When an RDS station is received, the display is automatically turned into the PS mode. Do not press the FREQ/PS/PTY button until the display is turned into the PS mode. If the button is pressed before the display mode is changed, it may occur that “NO PS” flashes on the display. This is because the unit has not received all of the RDS data on the station yet.

Note

When PS or PTY data reception is not possible due to poor reception conditions, “NO PS” or “NO PTY” flashes on the display in each mode. In such a case, press the TUNING MODE button so that “AUTO TUNING” goes off from the display. Though the reception mode is changed to monaural by this operation, when you changes to the PS or PTY mode, PS or PTY data may be displayed.
