PTY priority
Situation:
PTY is switched on and lights up in the dis-
play.
No station offering the selected programme
type can be found currently in your recep-
tion range (with seek tuning or scan).
The set will switch back to the station previ-
ously tuned into.
As soon as it is possible to receive a pro-
gramme in the broadcasting network with
the PTY selected, the radio will switch over
to the corresponding station for the dura-
tion of the programme.
Example:
German broadcasting network NDR:
- Station playing: NDR3.
- “PTY” lights up in the display.
- Programme type “POP” selected.
- Seek tuning is started.
- No station with “PTY-POP” can be
found.
- The display shows “NO PTY” and
- automatically switches back to NDR3.
- NDR2 airs a “PTY-POP” programme.
- The radio will switch to the linked sta-
tion NDR2 for the duration of the
“POP” programme.
During cassette or CD operation, the set will
also switch to the programme offering the
selected PTY within the broadcasting net-
work.
After the PTY programme has ended the
system will switch back to the previous mode
(radio, cassette or CD).
Note:
As already mentioned, these functions are
only supported by a limited number of RDS
stations at the present time.
Storing programme types
Each of the preset buttons 1-6 has been
assigned one programme type at the facto-
ry.
If desired, you can also replace these with
other available programme types.
To do so, make sure that “PTY” lights up in
the display.
• If necessary, press the PTY button to
switch on the function.
• Select a programme type using but-
tons << >> and
• hold down the desired preset button
(1-6) until you hear a beep.
Now the selected programme type can be
recalled by pressing this preset, if “PTY”
lights up in the display.
Scanning stations with PTY SCAN
Requirement: “PTY” must appear in the dis-
play.
• Press the SRC/SC button until you
hear a beep.
All of the stations in your current re-
ception area offering the selected pro-
gramme type will be scanned.
To switch off PTY-SCAN:
• Press SRC/SC or the seek-tuning
rocker switch once again.
