Retuning the same
programme automatically
— Alternative Frequencies (AF)
The Alternative Frequencies (AF) function
automatically selects and retunes the station
with the strongest signal in a network. By
using this function, you can continuously
listen to the same programme during a long-
distance drive without having to retune the
station manually.
Frequencies change automatically.

Press (AF) repeatedly until "AF-ON"
appears.
The unit starts searching for an alternative
station with a stronger signal in the same
network.
Note
When there is no alternative station in the area
and you do not need to search for an alternative
station, turn the AF function off by pressing (AF)
repeatedly until "AF-OFF" appears.

102.5MHz
Changing the display item
Each time you press (AF), the item changes as
follows:
AF-ON y AF-OFF
Notes
• When "NO AF" and the station name flash
alternately, it means that the unit cannot find an
alternative station in the network.
• If the station name starts flashing after selecting
a station with the AF function on, this indicates
that no alternative frequency is available. Press
either side of (SEEK/AMS) while the station name
is flashing (within eight seconds). The unit starts
searching for another frequency with the same PI
(Programme Identification) data ("PI SEEK"
appears and no sound is heard). If the unit
cannot find another frequency, "NO PI" appears,
and the unit returns to the previously selected
frequency.
Listening to a regional programme
The "REG-ON" (regional on) function lets you
stay tuned to a regional programme without
being switched to another regional station
(Note that you must turn the AF function on).
The unit is factory preset to "REG-ON," but if
you want to turn off the function, do the
following.
During radio reception, press (AF) for
two seconds until "REG-OFF" appears.
Note that selecting "REG-OFF" might cause
the unit to switch to another regional
station within the same network.
To return to regional on, select "REG-ON."
Note
This function does not work in the United
Kingdom and in some other areas.
Changing the display item
Each time you press (AF) for two seconds, the
item changes as follows:
