[QUOTE="leakwoon, post: 128723, member: 2410"] "MUTE" control function If your radio head unit has a button on the right side of the station presets that has a printed "PTY and "RDS" on it this info is most likely useless. If your radio head unit has a button on the right side of the station presets that has 2 horizontal slashes ( - - ), and a small display above that button seperate from the main dislay, then this info should work for you. The reason for this seems to be that the slashes indicate variable/choosable functions for these button positions. Obviously, the printed ones have pre-determined functions only (PTY/RDS) 1) turn the radio off 2) turn it back on again & dont touch any buttons 3) hold down the 'M' on the right for 10 seconds, this will bring up the radio head serial # 4) depress the '+' key on the left under the volume knob 6 times until the word "AREA" displays it should say USA next to it 5) now depress the position #1 preset button until the words "AREA OC+RDS appear 6) turn the radio off and your new choices will be set There is a small display to the right of the large display which originally should have displayed RDS*PTY When your thru with this reset, it should display RDS*MUTE When you press the slash under MUTE, it soft'fades out to just above silent, push again and it fades back up to the preset volume level [/QUOTE]
