P-TYPE: This button is used to turn on and off

Program Type (PTY) select. The PTY icon and the light

next to the button will turn on. The last selected PTY

will appear on the display for five seconds. Turn the

-TYPE knob to select the PTY you want to listen to.

Press SEEK or SCAN to find radio stations of the PTY

you want to listen to. The last PTY selected will be used

for seek or scan modes. If a station with the selected

PTY is not found, NONE FOUND will appear on the

display. If both P

-TYPE and TRAF are on, the radio

will search for stations with traffic announcements and

the selected PTY.

To use the P

-TYPE interrupt feature, press and hold

the P

-TYPE button until you hear a beep on the PTY

you want to interrupt on. 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). Just:

1. Press P

-TYPE, if it is not already on.

2. Press AM FM to select FM1 or FM2.

3. Turn the SELECT knob to select a PTY.

4. Press and hold one of the six numbered buttons

until you hear a beep. Whenever you press that

numbered button, the PTY you set will return.

5. Repeat the steps for each pushbutton.

ALERT!: This type of announcement warns of national

or local emergencies. You will not be able to turn off

alert announcements. ALERT! appears on the display

when an alert announcement plays. When an alert

announcement comes on the tuned radio station, you

will hear it, even if the volume is muted or a cassette

tape or compact disc is playing. If the cassette tape

or compact disc player is playing, play will stop for the

announcement and resume when the announcement

is finished.

ALTERNATE FREQUENCY: This feature allows

the radio to switch to a stronger station with the same

program type. Press and hold AM FM 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 AM FM 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.
