TA ALARM:
When this mode is selected, any automatic retune mode is not activated. Only double beep
sound (ALARM) is output. So, in this mode, the unit keeps the current station anyhow. (The PI
priority is higher than TP.)
When newly tuned station doesn't have TP information for 5 seconds, beeps come out. When
TP information gets lost at the current station for retune time, the beep sound is output.
When newly tuned station doesn't have RDS signal, "PI SEEK" is suppressed somewhat.
- PI SOUND/PI MUTE
While AF switching is implemented in C201 station, AF can switch to 100 MHz, which is non
genuine AF (where, different PI with same AF) in short "DIP".
If a car cruises that critical area back and forth, an oscillation phenomenon can be occurred,
because the different PI code can be received from 100 MHz with "XXX" PI.
The car radio has special procedure to reduce even this kind of unavoidable situation however
there is a limit to be escaped from this serious case perfectly.
In that serious case, 2 modes are selectable as follows:
PI SOUND: When above different PI sound (DIP) is heard once in a while, the DIP's sound will
be heard for a short time.
PI MUTE: Under above same situation, a mute sound will be heard for a short time.
- EON (Enhanced Other Networks Information)
When you select the EON on and receive the EON information. With EON facility, it offers the
ability for local stations to "break into" a national station's broadcast for the duration of a Traffic
Announcement.
- DX / LOCAL (DISTANCE/ LOCAL)
DX: When you select "DX", both distance and local stations can be received.
LOCAL: When you select "LOCAL", only local station is available.
- Program type selection (PTY)
When PTY is selected, the radio starts to search corresponding PTY information, and stops
when the corresponding PTY information is detected.
If corresponding PTY information does not exist any more, PTY is automatically stopped to
normal mode.
1. Press and hold volume knob, the unit will enter setting menu. Shortly press volume knob
to choose "PTY OFF". Rotate volume knob to choose corresponding desired PTY group.
2. Repeatedly press 1- 6 number buttons to select PTY in following.

LISTENING TO THE DAB/DAB+ RADIO
In DAB mode, repeatedly press BAND button to select bands in following order: D1
D3.
The first time you use the radio, or if the station list is empty, the radio automatically performs a
full scan to see what stations are available. The display will change to "SCAN 00". The progress
of scanning will be showed and the number of stations found will be displayed.
When the scan is complete, the unit will select the first available station and start to play
automatically. Stations will be listed in numerical and then multiplex order by default.
You may also need to start a scan manually to update the list of stations for one of the following
reasons:
- New stations may become available from time to time.
- Stations close or can no longer be received (In the station list, invalid stations are indicated
with a question mark in front of their name).
- If reception was not good for the original scan (for example the antenna was not up), this may
result in an empty or incomplete list of available stations.
- If you have poor reception of some stations causing the audio to break up, you may wish to
list only stations with good signal strength.
To do a full scan, press AMS button.
Note:
- If no broadcasts are found by DAB/DAB+ scan, "NO SERVICE" appears in the display.
- For a better reception, extend the wire antenna or do the full scan again in another place.
- During the search operation, the sound level is automatically muted.
