Switching to broadcast program
of your choice temporarily
Another convenient RDS service is called “Enhanced Other
Network.”
This allows the system to switch temporarily to a broadcast
program of your choice (TA, NEWS, and/or INFO) from a
different station except in the following cases:
• When you are listening to non-RDS stations (all AM—MW
stations, some FM stations and other sources).
• When the system is in standby mode.
Before you start, remember...
The Enhanced Other Network function is only applicable to preset
stations.
Press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly until the
program type (TA/NEWS/INFO) indicator you
want appears on the display window.
Each time you press the button, the indicator on the display
window changes to show the following:
