Whilst in the ASPM operation mode, the tuner will automatically 
search for new RDS stations. Up to 40 stations can be stored.
If you have already stored some stations in memory, the number 
of new stations you can store will be less.

1  Press the TUNER button on the remote control or TUNER/

AUDIO IN button repeatedly on the main unit to select TUNER 
function.

2  Press and hold down the RDS ASPM button on the remote 

control.

  1  After “ASPM” has fl ashed for about 4 seconds, scanning will 

start (87.50 - 108.00 MHz).

  2  When an RDS station is found, “RDS” will appear for a short 

time and the station will be stored in memory.

  3  After scanning, the number of stations stored in memory will 

be displayed for 4 seconds, and then “END” will appear for 4 
seconds.

To stop the ASPM operation before it is complete:
Press the RDS ASPM button whilst it is scanning for stations.
The stations which are already stored in memory will be kept 
there.

  Any station which has the same frequency as the one stored in 

memory will not be stored.

  If 40 stations have already been stored in memory, the scan will 

be aborted. If you want to redo the ASPM operation, erase the 
preset memory.

  If no station have been stored in memory, “END” will appear for 

about 4 seconds.

  If the RDS signals are very weak, station names may not be 

stored in memory.

  The same station name can be stored in different channels.
  In a certain area or during certain time periods, the station 

names may temporarily be different.

  “PS”, “NO PS” and a station name appear alternately, and the 

unit does not operate properly.

  If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a station 

is conducting tests, the RDS reception function may not work 
properly.

  When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too weak, 

information like the station name may not be displayed.

  “NO PS”, “NO PTY” or “NO RT” will fl ash for about 5 seconds, 

and then the frequency will be displayed.

  The fi rst 8 characters of the radio text will appear for 4 seconds 

and then they will scroll across the display.

  If you tune in to an RDS station which is not broadcasting any 

radio text, “NO RT” will be displayed when you switch to the 
radio text position.

  Whilst radio text data is received or when the text contents 

change, “RT” will be displayed.

To specify programmed types and select stations (PTY 
search):
You can search a station by specifying the programme type (news, 
sports, traffi c programme, etc. ... see page 17) from the stations 
in memory.

1  Press the TUNER button on the remote control or TUNER/

AUDIO IN button repeatedly on the main unit to select TUNER 
function.

2  Press the RDS PTY button on the remote control.

“SELECT” and “PTY TI” will appear alternately for about 6 
seconds.

3  Within 6 seconds, press the PRESET (  or  ) button to select 

the programme type.

Each time the button is pressed, the programme type will 
appear. If the button is held down for more than    0.5 seconds, 
the programme type will appear continuously.

4  Whilst the selected programme type is fl ashing (within 6 

seconds), press the RDS PTY button again.

After the selected programme type has been lit for 2 seconds, 
“SEARCH” will appear, and the search operation will start.

  If the display has stopped fl ashing, start again from step 2. If the 

unit fi nds a desired programme type, the corresponding channel 
number will lit for about 8 seconds, and then the station name 
will remain it.

  If you want to listen to the same programme type of another 

station, press the RDS PTY button whilst the channel number or 
station name is fl ashing. The unit will look for the next station.

  If no station can be found, “NOTFOUND” will appear for 4 

seconds.

If you select the traffi c programme:
If you select the traffi c programme (TP) in step 3, “TP” will 
appear.
(This does not mean that you can listen to the traffi c information 
at that time.)
When the traffi c information is broadcast, “TA” will appear.
