station has a message, INFO will appear on the display.
Touch INFO from the preset menu to view the
message. If the whole message does not appear on the
display, parts of the message will appear every three
seconds until the message is completed. Once the
complete message has been displayed, INFO will
disappear from the display until another new message
is received. INFO will remain available to allow you
to display the entire message again.

stations with types of programs you want to listen
to. This button is used to turn on and off Program
Type (PTY) features.

display will turn on. Touch RDS followed by this button
again to turn the PTY display off.

station with the selected PTY is not found, STATION

TA are on, the audio system will search for stations with
traffic announcements and the selected PTY.
PTY (Program Type) Presets: The six presets let you
return to your favorite PTYs. These presets have
factory PTY preset stations. See “RDS Program Type
(PTY) Selections” later in this section. You can set up to
12 PTYs, 6 FM1 and 6 FM2. To save a PTY preset,

the list.
6. Touch and hold one of the six presets for more
than two seconds until you hear a beep. Whenever
you touch that numbered preset for less than
two seconds, the PTY you set will return.
7. Repeat the steps for each preset.
Once you have stored a PTY for each of your preset
stations, you can recall a PTY preset by touching
the preset station for less than two seconds. Then use
