NDR2 station for the duration of the  
“POP” programme.  
Situation:  
PTY is switched on and lights up in the dis-  
play.  
No station offering the selected programme  
type can be currently received (neither with  
seek tuning nor with scan).  
During tape operation, the set will also au-  
tomatically switch to the programme offer-  
ing the selected PTY within the broadcast-  
ing network.  
After the PTY programme the system will  
remain in the radio mode.  
The set will switch back to the previous sta-  
tion.  
As soon as a programme with such PTY can  
be received within the broadcasting network,  
the unit will switch over to the correspond-  
ing station for the duration of the pro-  
gramme.

As mentioned earlier, these functions are  
currently only supported by a limited number  
of RDS stations.

beep every 30 seconds. To switch off the  
beep tone proceed as described above.  
If you leave the reception area of the traffic  
programme station currently tuned into, you  
will hear a beep tone approximately every  
30 seconds.  
This tone will also be released when press-
