Radio LED adjust & PTY off
Radio LED adjust & PTY off
Hello,
Need help with radio operation.
Is there a way to make the LED radio display brighter (aside from the instrument panel dial next to the speedo)? The owner's manual, on page 107 under USER MENU section, refers to LED as the 5th function available by pressing the OPT button, but nothing comes up pertaining to the LED when arein OPT mode.
Also, is there a way to turn the PTY function off and display only the radio station number? Page 104 of the owner's manual describes how to activate PTY, but not how to turn it off.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Re: Radio LED adjust & PTY off
Thank you for the responses and info. Looks like this 2004 XF is an early one, prod date 05/03, VIN # is under 1200, so I guess a newer model radio is the only fix for the hard to read display.
Regarding turning off the PTY, looks like I'm still in the dark there. Can't find a toggle function on the radio or in the owner's manual, , onwer's manual describes the "multifunction PT button", which is readily apparent when you are in OPT mode. When you press the multifunction button that corresponds to the PT light, nothing happens, when you press it again as if to turn off, nothing happens, when you press/turn the tuning **** in OPT mode, the PT function does not turn off. Owner's manual doesn't in fact say how to de-activate PTY, so you're left guessing/experimenting/forum posting.
