Digital Radio Receiver 

The radio controls communicate with the digital radio receiver via the class 2 communication circuit. The digital radio receiver sends low level audio signals to the radio.

Viewing Messages 

Press the TUNE/SELECT/RCL knob while in XM mode to view various pieces of information related to the current song or channel. By pressing TUNE/SELECT/RCL knob, you may view four different categories of information: Artist Name/Feature, Song/Program Title, Channel Category, and other Additional Information that may be broadcast on that channel. Additional Information messages may not always be available. Each of the four information types may have multiple pages of text. To reach a category, press TUNE/SELECT/RCL knob consecutively until the desired type is displayed. If there are multiple pages of text for the selected information type, the radio will automatically display all the pages for that type at a rate of approximately one page every three seconds before timing out and returning to the default display. You may override this feature by pressing the TUNE/SELECT/RCL knob to review all of the pages at your own pace.

Selecting a Program Type 

The TUNE/SELECT/RCL knob can be used to scroll through the list of available program types (PROG TYPE). Press the PROG TYPE button, then turn the TUNE/SELECT/RCL knob to scroll through the available program types. When the desired program type is shown on the display, press the SCAN button. The radio will seek the next station of that type.
