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. 3-21
