INTRODUCTION
RADIO
When the signal of the RDS station tuned
weakens, the following two cases may oc-
cur:
– 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 automatically tuned to the station
with the strongest signal that is broad-
casting the same programme. During the
journey it will thus be possible to contin-
ue listening to the station chosen with-
out having to change the frequency when
changing area. Of course, the station be-
ing listened to must be receivable in the
area the car is crossing.
– With “AF SWITCHING: OFF” the ra-
dio will not tune the strongest station au-
tomatically and it will have to be found
manually using the tuner buttons. AF FUNCTION

briefly button AF
PTY. RDS name (if avail-
able) will stay on the display and if the
function is on the wording is shown.

– “AF SWITCHING: OFF” = alternative
frequency search off.TA FUNCTION
(traffic information)
Certain stations in the FM band (in stor-
age blocks FM1, FM2, FM3 and FMAST)
are enabled to also broadcast information
about traffic conditions. During a traffic
bulletin, the message “TRAFFIC INFO”
will be displayed alternate with the cur-
rent one (e.g.: station name).
To turn the TA function on/off, press
briefly button TA. When the TA function
is on the display will show the message
“TA-ON”.
When the TA function is on, an incoming
traffic bulletin will stop temporarily the
current broadcasted programme or the
CD being played. Switching from the se-
lected station to the station broadcasting
traffic announcements is only possible if
connection for EON function is enabled.
