"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 flash for about 5 seconds, and
then the frequency will be displayed.

  

The first 10 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.

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

will flash for 7 seconds, which will remain lit.

  

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 flashing. The unit will look for the next station.

  

If no station can be found, "NOT FOUND" will appear for 4
seconds.

 

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