Finding a PTY Preset Station To find a PTY preset station, perform the following steps: 1. Turn the P-TYPE LIST knob to display the program type list. 2. Turn the knob either clockwise or counterclockwise to select a program type. The list is alphabetical. If you select ANY TYPE your radio will seek to the first PTY available. 3. Push the SEEK button to activate search. The radio will seek to the first RDS broadcaster of the selected program type. If the radio cannot find the desired program type, NONE will appear on the display and the radio will return to the last station you were listening to. To use the P-TYPE interrupt feature, press and hold the P-TYPE LIST knob until you hear a beep on the PTY you want to interrupt on. When you are listening to a compact disc, the last selected RDS FM station will interrupt play if that selected PTY format is broadcast. A SEEK ": Press the right arrow to go to a station with the last selected PTY; TYPE and the last selected PTY will appear on the display, if it is not already showing. Press SEEK a second time to seek. If a station with the selected PTY is not found, the radio will return to the original station and display NONE. BAND (Alternate Frequency): Alternate frequency allows the radio to switch to a stronger station with the same program type. Press and hold BAND for two seconds to turn alternate frequency on. AF ON will appear on the display. The radio may switch to stronger stations. Press and hold BAND again for two seconds to turn alternate frequency off. AF OFF will appear on the display. The radio will not switch to other stations. When you turn the ignition off and then on again, the alternate frequency feature will automatically be turned on. 3-25
