A new group of words will appear on the display. Once the complete message has been displayed, INFO will disappear from the display until another new message is received. The old message can be displayed by pressing the INFO button until a new message is received or a different station is tuned to. If the INFO button is pressed when the INFO icon is not displayed and an old message has not been stored by the radio, the radio will display NO INFO. PROG-TYPE: This button is used to turn on and off Program Type (PTY) select. The P-TYPE icon will appear on the display and the SELECT LED indicator next to the SELECT knob will light. The last selected PTY will appear on the display for five seconds. Turn the SELECT knob to select the PTY you want to listen to. Press SEEK or SCAN and the radio will search for an RDS station that is broadcasting the PTY that you have selected. The last PTY selected will be used for seek or scan modes. When SELECT LED is on and a P-TYPE is not displayed, the first time seek is pressed the last selected P-TYPE will be displayed. Press the SEEK button again to seek. If a station with the selected PTY is not found, NOT FOUND will appear on the display. To use the PROG-TYPE interrupt feature, press and hold this button until you hear a beep on the PTY you want to interrupt. An asterisk (*) will appear next to the PTY name, example (CLASSICAL*). The radio will also display brackets around the P-TYPE icon when the P-TYPE interrupt is active. To disable the P-TYPE interrupt, select the interrupt format and press and hold the P-TYPE button until you hear a beep. The asterisk (*) will be removed from the display and so will the brackets. When you are listening to a cassette or compact disc, the last selected RDS FM station will interrupt play if that selected PTY format is broadcast. PUSHBUTTONS: The six numbered pushbuttons let you return to your favorite Program Types (PTYs). These buttons have factory PTY presets. You can set up to 12 PTYs (six FM1 and six FM2) by performing the following steps: 1. Press AM FM to select FM1 or FM2. 2. Press PROG-TYPE, if it is not already on. 3. Turn the SELECT knob to select a PROG-TYPE. 4. Press and hold one of the six numbered buttons until you hear a beep. Whenever you press that numbered button, with the SELECT LED and P-TYPE icon indicator on the PTY you set will return. 5. Repeat the steps for each pushbutton. 3-16
