display.
The last station selected on the respective
frequency band will be tuned into.
The FM band is divided into sections: FM1,
FM2 and FMT; the FMT reception band is
reserved for broadcasters stored automat-
ically using the Autostore function.PRESET BUTTONS
The buttons numbered from 1 to 6 are

FUNCTIONS
AND ADJUSTMENTS
RADIO
To interrupt the A-STORE function, press
one of the following buttons:
❒BAND (short and long press);
❒¯or ˙(short or long press);
❒one of the preset buttons (1,2,3,4,5,6);
❒˚(if a CD is inserted it will be ejected).
When the A-STORE function has finished,
the radio will automatically tune into the
first preset station on the FMT 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 but-
tons numbered 1 to 6.
When the A-STORE function is activated
within the AM band, the FMT band is au-
tomatically selected and the function is
performed.
IMPORTANT Sometimes the A-STORE
function does not manage to find 6 sta-
tions with a strong signal. In this case, the
previous stations stored will be duplicat-
ed in the free preset buttons.EMERGENCY ALARM
RECEPTION
The radio can receive emergency alerts in
RDS mode in exceptional circumstances
where dangerous situations are threat-
ened (earthquakes, floods, etc.) if these are
being transmitted by the broadcaster
tuned into.
This function is activated automatically and
cannot be turned off.
The wording “ALARM” will be shown in
the display during the transmission of an
emergency alert. During this announce-
ment the car radio volume will change,
similarly to what occurs when a traffic up-
date is being received (see “TA FUNC-
TION” paragraph).EON FUNCTION
(Enhanced Other Network)
In some countries, there are circuits that
group multiple broadcasters that transmit
traffic information together. In this case,
the programme of the station that is be-
ing listened to will be temporarily inter-
rupted 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.
STEREOPHONIC
BROADCASTERS
If the incoming signal is weak, the repro-
duction is automatically switched from
Stereo to Mono.
