an RDS station which sends weak signal, the display will
change in the following order:

Memory (ASPM)
While in the ASPM operation mode, the tuner will auto-
matically search for new RDS stations. Up to 40 stations
can be stored.

When an RDS station is found, "RDS" will appear
for a short time and the station will be stored in
memory.

memory will be displayed for 4 seconds, and then

Notes:
● If the same station is broadcasting on different frequen-
cies, the strongest frequency will be stored in memory.
● 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 be different.
■ Notes for RDS operation
If any of the following events occur, it does not mean
that the unit is faulty:
● "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.
Notes for radio text:
● The first 14 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 broadcast-
ing any radio text, "No RT" will be displayed when you
switch to the radio text position.
● While radio text data is received or when the text con-
tents change, "RT" will be displayed.
