these procedures:

To change to a new PTY type, press the

RDS OPERATION
Now in use in many countries, RDS (Radio Data
System) is a description of the station’s
programming hidden space in the FM signal.
Your new receiver is equipped with RDS to assist
in the selection of FM stations using station and
network names, rather than broadcast
frequencies. Additional RDS functions include the
ability to search for programme types.
RADIO TEXT
Some RDS stations broadcast RADIO TEXT,
which is additional information on the station and
programme being broadcast.
RADIO TEXT information appears as ‘running’ text
in the display. RADIO TEXT is transmitted
character by the radio station. As a result of that it
may take some time until the entire text has been
completely received.
RDS DISPLAY
When a receiver is tuned to an FM station that is
transmitting RDS data, the Front Panel Information
Display will automatically show the station name or
RDS TEXT in place of the typical display of the
station’s broadcast frequency.
To change the display, press the TUNER button
and press the the > button until PAGE3 is
displayed. Press the DISP (D1) button.
PROGRAMME TYPE (PTY) DISPLAY
The RDS system categorizes programmes
according to their genre into different programme
type (PTY) groups. To display the programme
type information of the current station, press the
TUNER button and press the the > button until
PAGE3 is displayed. Press the PTY (D2) button.
