When the ASPM button is pressed whilst tuned to the FM band, the RDS (Radio Data System) function will automatically search for new RDS stations. Up to 30 stations can be stored in memory. (If you have already stored some stations in memory, the number of new stations you can store will be less.)

� After scanning, the number of stations that have
been stored in memory automatically will flash for 4 seconds.

Notes: q Only RDS stations can be stored in memory. q If the same station is broadcasting on different frequencies, the transmission with the strongest broadcast frequency will be stored in memory. q Any station which has the same frequency as one which has been already stored in memory will not be stored again. q If a 30th station is stored in memory during a scan, the scanning will stop at that station. The number of stations will flash for 4 seconds. q If no stations have been stored in memory, �0MEMORY� will appear for about 4 seconds. q If 30 stations have already been stored in memory and the ASPM button is pressed, �ASPM� will flash for 4 seconds and the scan will be aborted.
