This is the only reference to a Beep from the radio. If it's not this, could it be from somewhere else in the car? Alarm for example?
Anyway, if you see "NO PTY" when you hear the Beep, this is probably your problem.
Programme type (PTY)
Besides transmitting the station name, some FM stations also provide information on the type of programme that they are broadcasting. Your radio can receive and display this information. For example, the programme types can be:
CULTURE TRAVEL JAZZ
SPORT NEWS POP
ROCK CLASSICS
Using the PTY function, you can directly select stations of a particular programme type.
Activating PTY
To use the PTY function,
- press the TUNER button 12 in radio mode.
The radio functions menu appears in the display.
- Press the softkey 4 assigned to the “PTY” display item.
When PTY is activated, the display shows the current programme type. The programme types are displayed alongside the softkeys 4.
Cancelling PTY
To cancel the PTY function,
- Whilst the programme types are being displayed, press the softkey 4 assigned to the “OFF” display item.
Selecting a programme type and starting seek tuning The PTY menu is made up of several pages on which the known programme types are displayed. To browse through the PTY menu’s pages,
- repeatedly press the NEXT button 3 until the required programme type appears alongside one of the softkeys.
- Press the softkey 4 assigned to the required programme type.
- Move the joystick 7 up/right or down/left to start seek tuning.
The next receivable station corresponding to your selected programme type will then be tuned into. If no station is found that corresponds to the selected programme type, you will hear a beep and “NO PTY” appears briefly in the display.
The radio will then retune to the station that was received last.
Note:
If you want to switch back to the programme types display,
- briefly move the joystick 7 in any direction.
