RDS uses PI (program identification) signal and AF (alternative frequency) list transmitted in addition to the normal FM broadcasting programs, and picks up the
FM stations that are transmitting the same program from the AF list and automatically tunes to the station with the strongest signal intensity.
Therefore, you can continue listening to one program in, for example, a long distance driving without retuning to the other station transmitting the same program
when you are leaving the service area of the currently receiving station.
The RDS radio also features the limited reception of the program types, the break-in reception of the traffic announcement to the EON (enhanced other network)
and emergency broadcast, and the limited/unlimited reception of the regional programs.

AF (Alternative Frequencies) functionE00720900146
The AF function finds a station broadcasting the
same program and selects the station with the stron-
gest signal of AF lists.
The AF function is turned on (with the AF indica-
tor (10) shown on the display) at all times unless
you manually switch it off.

The AF function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-20.CT (Clock Time) function E00721000128
The clock can be set automatically by using the sig-
nal from the local RDS stations. Refer to “Digital
clock” on page 5-34.
REG (Regional) function E00721100015
REG function limits to receive the stations broad-
casting regional programs.
Regional programming and regional networks are
organized differently depending on the country or
area (they may be changed according to the hour,
state, or broadcast area), so if you don’t want to re-
ceive the regional programs automatically, you can
set up REG ON not to receive regional programs.

The REG function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-20.
PI (Program Identification) search function E00721200175
When travelling long distance and the recalled pre-
set station is weak, the radio searches another fre-
quency broadcasting the same programming with
the same PI code in AF list.
If there are no frequencies broadcasting the same
programming, the radio searches a frequency broad-
casting the regional programming. The radio suc-
ceeds in searching the regional programming, then
the display shows the REG indicator (14).
If the radio does not succeed in searching the re-
gional programming, the radio returns to the recal-
led preset station.
The PI function can be turned ON and OFF on
some vehicles.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-20.
