AF SWITCHING function
(alternative frequency search)
The radio can operate in two different
modes in the RDS system:
❒“AF Switching On”: search for alterna-
tive frequencies activated (the letters
“AF” appear on the display);
❒“AF Switching Off”: search for alterna-
tive frequencies not activated.
Proceed as follows to switch the function
on/off:
❒press the MENU button and select
“AF Switching On”;
❒press the ¯/ ˙buttons to turn the
function on/off.
With the function activated, the radio au-
tomatically tunes into the station with the
strongest signal broadcasting the same
program. While driving, you can contin-
ue to listen to the same station without
having to change the frequency when you
change zones.
Obviously, it must be possible to receive
the station that you are listening to in the
area you are driving through.If the AF function is activated, “AF” will
light up on the display.
If the AF function has been activated and
the radio is not able to receive the tuned
station, the radio activates the automatic
search, during which “FM Search” appears
on the display (only for top of the range
radios).
With the AF function deactivated, the re-
maining RDS functions, such as the display
of the station name, still remain active.
The AF function can only be activated on
FM bands.TRAFFIC INFORMATION
function (traffic information)
Some stations on the FM band (FM1, FM2
and FMA) can transmit information about
traffic conditions. In this case the letters
“TA” will appear on the display.
Proceed as follows to switch the TA
function on/off:
❒press the MENU button and select
“Traffic Info”;
❒press the ¯/ ˙buttons to turn
the function on/off.
If the TA function is activated, “TA” will
light up on the display.
IMPORTANT If the TA function is acti-
vated with an audio source other than
Tuner (Radio) (CD, MP3, Telephone or
Mute/Pause), the radio can carry out an
automatic search and therefore it is pos-
sible, when reactivating the Tuner (Radio)
source, that the frequency tuned into will
be different from the one set previously.
With the TA function, it is possible to:
❒search only for RDS stations that
broadcast on the FM band, which are
enabled to transmit traffic information;
❒receive traffic information even if the
CD player is on;
❒receive traffic information at a minimum
preset volume even with the radio vol-
ume zeroed.

FREQUENCY BAND
SELECTION
With the Radio mode active, press the
FM or AM button briefly and repeatedly
to select the desired reception band.
Each time the button is pressed the fol-
lowing bands are selected cyclically:
❒pressing the FMas button: “FM1”, “FM2”
or “FMA”;
❒pressing the AM button: “MW”.
Each band is highlighted by the name in the
display. The last station selected on the re-
spective frequency band will be tuned into.
The FM band is divided into sections: FM1,
FM1 or “FMA”; the FMA reception band
is reserved for broadcasters stored auto-
matically using the AutoSTore function.PRESELECTION BUTTONS
The buttons numbered from 1 to 6 are
used to set the following preselections:
❒18 on the FM band FM (6 on FM1, 6 on
FM2, 6 on FMT or “FMA” (on some
versions);
❒12 on the MW band;
To listen to a preset station, select the
desired frequency band and then briefly
press the corresponding preset button
(from 1 to 6).
By pressing the preset button for more
than 2 seconds, the tuned station will be
stored. The storing phase is confirmed by
an acoustic signal. INTRODUCTION
When the radio is turned on the last func-
tion selected before it was switched off is
activated: Radio, CD, CD MP3 or Media
Player (only with Blue&Me™).
To select the Radio function when anoth-
er audio source is being listened to, briefly
press the FMas or AM buttons depending
on the desired band.
Once the Radio mode has been activated,
the display will show the name (RDS sta-
tions only) and the frequency of the se-
lected radio station, the frequency band
selected (e.g. FM1) and the preselect but-
ton number (e.g. P1).

AUTOSTORE FUNCTION
(automatic station storage)
To activate the AutoSTore function, press
down on the FMas button until you hear
the acoustic confirmation signal. With this
function, the radio automatically stores the
6 stations with the strongest signal in a de-
creasing order on the FMA frequency
band.
During the automatic storing process,
“Autstore” will appear flashing on the
display.To interrupt the AutoSTore function,
press the FMas button again: the radio will
return to tuning into the station listened
to before the activation of the function.
When the AutoSTore function has finished,
the radio will automatically tune into the
first preset station on the FMA band stored
on the preset 1 side.
The stations that have a strong signal at
that moment are then automatically stored
in the preselected band in the buttons
numbered 1 to 6.
When the AutoSTore function is activat-
ed within the MW band, the FMA band is
automatically selected and the function is
performed.IMPORTANT Sometimes the AutoSTore
function does not manage to find 6 sta-
tions with a strong signal. In this case, the
strongest stations will be duplicated in the
free preset buttons.
IMPORTANT When the AutoSTore func-
tion is activated, the stations that were
previously stored on the FMA band are
deleted.

EON FUNCTION
(Enhanced Other Network)
In some countries, there are circuits that
group multiple broadcasters that transmit
traffic information together. In this case, the
program of the station that is being listened
to will be temporarily interrupted to:
❒receive traffic information (only with
the TA function on);
❒listen to regional transmissions each
time they are transmitted by one of the
broadcasters in the same circuit. EMERGENCY ALARM
RECEPTION
The radio can receive emergency an-
nouncements in RDS mode in exce ptional
circumstances where dangerous situations
are threatened (earthquakes, floods, etc.)
if these are being transmitted by the
broadcaster tuned into.
This function is activated automatically and
cannot be turned off.
The word Alarm will be shown in the dis-
play during the transmission of an emer-
gency announcement. The volume of the
radio will change during this announce-
ment in the same way as during a traffic
bulletin.STEREOPHONIC
BROADCASTERS
If the incoming signal is weak, the repro-
duction is automatically switched from
Stereo to Mono.
