SavingYourPresetStations
There are six numbered preset buttons which can store and recall stations for each
band. While listening to a radio station you would like to save as a pre-set, press
and hold one of the buttons numbered 1-6 until you hear a beep. The button you
pressed is now the preset button for that station.
AutomaticScanandStore
The Automatic Memory Storing feature is most useful when travelling in an area
where you are not familiar with the local stations. The Auto-Store Tuning feature
will automatically scan and enter up to eighteen FM strong stations into the preset
memory locations for the FM1, FM2 and FM3 bands or twelve strong AM stations
into the preset memory locations for the AM1 and AM2 bands. Each band stores
up to six preset stations.
While listening to the FM radio, press and hold the AS/PS button on the faceplate.
The receiver will automatically scan and save stations of the 3 FM bands.
While listening to the AM radio, press and hold the AS/PS button on the faceplate.
The receiver will automatically scan and save stations of the 2 AM bands.
Note: If you have already set the preset memories to your favorite stations,
activating the Auto-Store feature will erase those stations and enter the new
strong stations.
RadioDataSystem(RDS)Operation
The Radio Data System (RDS) simultaneously transmits digital data along with the
audio signal on FM radio. Although RDS is a European standard, it is also used in
the USA, where it is called Radio Broadcast Data System (RBDS). RDS enables traffic
reports to be received and provides many facilities, including enabling the radio
station name and program information to be displayed on the display panel.
RDS service availability varies with areas. If RDS service is not available in your
area, the following services are not available, either.
Listening to Traffic Announcements (TA)
Press the TA button to turn Traffic Announcement function on or off. "TA" appears
on the display panel when Traffic Announcement is on.
In TA mode, traffic programs are automatically searched until the program is
received. When a traffic announcement is received, the unit will temporarily switch
to the tuner mode (regardless of the current mode) and begin broadcasting
the announcement. After the traffic announcement is over, it will return to the
previous mode and volume level.
To interrupt a traffic announcement, briefly press the TA button; it will not switch
off the TA mode.
