The display will show the station
name (if any) and frequency, and on
the bottom line of the display will be
shown “Pn” where ncorresponds
to the active presetting number.
In bands FM1, FM2 and FM3 if
reception is poor and the AF alter-
native frequency search function is
active, the station with the strongest
signal that is broadcasting the same
programme will be sought automati-
cally.
AF function
(alternative frequency search)
To turn on/off the alternative fre-
quency search function (AF func-
tion), press briefly (less than 1 sec-
ond) the 8(AF PTY) button. The
name RDS (if available) stays on the
display and if the AF function has
been turned on the message AF
SWITCHING: ONis displayed.
– “AF SWITCHING: ON”=
alternative frequency search on
– “AF SWITCHING: OFF” =
alternative frequency search off.When the signal of the RDS station
tuned weakens, the following two
cases may occur:
– With “AF SWITCHING:ON”
the RDS system activates automatic
tuning of the optimum frequency of
the station chosen, with the stations
enabled, therefore the radio is auto-
matically tuned to the station with
the strongest signal that is broadcast-
ing the same programme. During the
journey it will thus be possible to
continue listening to the station cho-
sen without having to change the fre-
quency when changing area. Of
course, the station being listened to
must be receivable in the area the car
is crossing.
– With “AF SWITCHING: OFF”
the radio will not tune the strongest
station automatically and it will have
to be found manually using the tuner
buttons.TA function
(traffic information)
Certain stations in the FM band (in
FM1, FM2, FM3 and FMAST storing
sections) are enabled to also broad-
cast information about traffic condi-
tions. When listening to traffic infor-
mation the display shows “TRAF-
FIC INFO” and the current station
(e.g. station name) alternately.
To turn the TA (traffic information)
function on/off, briefly press (less
than 1 second) the 9(TA) button. If
the function is on the display shows
“TA-ON”.
With the TAfunction on, at the
start of the traffic bulletin the radio
stops temporarily the current sta-
tion or the CD in order to broadcast
traffic information. This is possible
only if the current station selected
and the station broadcasting traffic
information are connected for the
EONfunction.
