Setting a PTY Preset Stations
The six numbered pushbuttons let you return to your
favorite PTYs. These pushbuttons have factory presets.
See “Radio Data Systems (RDS) Program Type (PTY)
Selections” in the Index. You can set up to 12 PTYs
(six FM1 and six FM2), by doing the following:
1. Turn PTY on.
2. Press BAND to select FM1 or FM2.
3. Tune in an RDS station with the PTY you desire.
4. Press and hold one of the six numbered pushbuttons
for more than two seconds until you hear a beep.
Whenever you press that pushbutton for less than
two seconds, the PTY you set will return.
5. Repeat the steps for each pushbutton.
When battery power is removed and later applied,
you will not have to reset your RDS presets because
the radio remembers them.
RDS Messages
ALERT: This type of announcement warns of national
or local emergencies. You will not be able to turn off
alert announcements. Alert announcements will come
on even if RDS mode is turned off. ALERT appears
on the display when an alert announcement plays.
The radio uses TA volume during these announcements.
To increase volume, turn the VOL knob clockwise.
Turn it counterclockwise to decrease volume.
TA VOLUME will appear on the display while the
volume is being adjusted. When an alert announcement
comes on the current radio station or a related network
station, you will hear it, even if the volume is muted
or a cassette tape or compact disc is playing. If the
radio tunes to a related network station for an alert
announcement, it will return to the original station
when the announcement is finished. If the cassette tape
or compact disc player is playing, play will stop for the
announcement and resume when the announcement
is finished.
