Storing stations in memory
You can use one of the following two methods to

• Manual preset of both FM and AM stations
FM station automatic preset: SSM
Y ou can preset 6 local FM stations in each FM band
(FM1, FM2 and FM3).

Local FM stations with the strongest signals are
searched and stored automatically in the band
number you have selected (FM1, FM2 or FM3).
These stations are preset in the number buttons —
No.1 (lowest frequency) to No .6 (highest frequency).
When automatic preset is over, the station stored
in number button 1 will be automatically tuned in.
Manual preset
You can preset up to 6 stations in each band (FM1,
FM2, FM3 and AM) manually.

RDS OPERATIONS
This section is only for KS-FX725R.
What you can do with RDS
RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to
ENGLISH
send an additional signal along with their regular
programme signals. For example , the stations send
their station names, as well as information about
what type of programme they broadcast, such as
sports or music, etc.
Another advantage of RDS function is called
“Enhanced Other Networks.” The EON indicator
lights up while receiving an FM station with the
Enhanced Other Networks data. By using the
Enhanced Other Networks data sent from a station,
you can tune in to a different station of a different
network broadcasting your favorite programme or
traffic announcement while listening to another
programme or to another source such as tape.
By receiving the RDS data, this unit can do the
following:
• Tracing the same programme automatically
(Network-Tracking Reception)
• Standby Reception of TA (Traffic
Announcement) or your favorite programme
• PTY (Programme Type) search
• Programme search
• And some other functions
Tracing the same programme
automatically (Network-Tracking
Reception)
When driving in an area where FM reception is not
good, the tuner built in this unit automatically tunes
in to another RDS station, broadcasting the same
programme with stronger signals. So, you can
continue to listen to the same programme in its
finest reception, no matter where you drive. (See
the illustration on the next page.)
Two types of the RDS data are used to make
Network-Tracking Reception work correctly — PI
(Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative
Frequency).
Without receiving these data correctly from the RDS
station you are listening to, Network-Tracking
Reception will not operate.
To use Network-Tracking Reception, press and
hold TP RDS (Traffic Programme/Radio Data
System) for more than 1 second. Each time you
press and hold the button, Network-Tracking
Reception modes change as follows:
TP
RDS
Mode 1
The AF indicator lights up but the REG indicator
does not.
Network-Tracking Reception is activated with
Regionalization set to “off.”
Switches to another station within the same
network when the receiving signals from the
current station become weak.
• In this mode, the programme may differ from the one
currently received.
Mode 2
Both the AF indicator and the REG indicator light
up.
Network-Tracking Reception is activated with
Regionalization set to “on.”
Switches to another station, within the same
network, broadcasting the same programme
when the receiving signals from the current
station become weak.
Mode 3
Neither the AF indicator nor the REG indicator
lights up.
Network-Tracking Reception is deactivated.

Using Standby Reception
Standby Reception allows the unit to switch

Programme Type) and Traffic Announcement (TA)
from the current source (another FM station, tape
or other connected components).
• Standby Reception will not work if you are listening
to an AM station.
TA Standby Reception
TP
When you press TP RDS while listening
RDS
to an FM station, the TP indicator is lit
during reception of a TP (Traffic
Programme) station and the TA standby
mode is engaged.
• When the station being received is not a TP station,
the TP indicator flashes. Press ¢ or 4
to engage the TA standb y mode. “SEARCH” appears
on the display, and TP station search starts. When a
TP station is tuned into, the TP indicator is lit.
7 If you are listening to a tape or other connected
components and wish to listen to a TP station,
press TP RDS to enter the T A standby mode . (The
TP indicator lights up.)
PTY Standby Reception
When you press PTY while listening
PTY
to an FM station, the PTY indicator is
lit during reception of a PTY station
and the PTY standby mode is
engaged. The selected PTY name
stored on page 12 flashes for 5
seconds.
• When the station being received is not a PTY station,
the PTY indicator flashes. Press ¢ or 4
to engage the PTY standby mode. “SEARCH” appears
on the display, and PTY station sear c h starts. When a
PTY station is tuned into, the PTY indicator is lit.
7 If you are listening to a tape or other connected
components and wish to listen to a selected PTY
broadcast, press PTY to enter the PTY standby
mode. (The PTY indicator lights up.)
If the selected PTY programme starts broadcasting
while the PTY standby mode is active, the selected
PTY name appears and the playback source
changes to the FM band. The selected PTY
programme can then be heard.
To deactivate the PTY standby mode, press PTY
again.
ENGLISH
If a traffic programme starts broadcasting while the
T A standby mode is activ e, “TRAFFIC” appears and
the playback source changes to the FM band. The
volume increases to the preset TA volume level (see
page 14) and the traffic programme can be heard.
To deactivate the TA standby mode, press TP
