Receiving traffic announcements
TA (traffic announcement standby) lets you re-
ceive traffic announcements automatically, no

tion that broadcasts traffic information) or an-
other enhanced network
’s TP station (a station
carrying information that cross-references TP
stations).

p The system switches back to the original
source following traffic announcement re-
ception.
p Only TP stations and other enhanced net-
works
’ TP stations are tuned in during seek
tuning or BSM when TA is on.
Tuning into alternative frequencies
If you are listening to a broadcast and the re-
ception becomes weak or there are other pro-
blems, the navigation system will
automatically search for a different station in
the same network that is broadcasting a stron-
ger signal.
% Touching [AF] switches between [On]
and [Off].
p AF is on as a default.
p Only RDS stations are tuned in during seek
tuning or BSM when AF is on.
p When you recall a preset station, the tuner
may update the preset station with a new
frequency from the station
’s AF list. No pre-
set number appears on the display if the
RDS data for the station received differs
from that for the originally stored station.
p Sound may be temporarily interrupted by
another programme during an AF fre-
quency search.
p AF can be turned on or off independently
for each FM band.
PI Seek operation
If the unit fails to find a suitable alternative fre-
quency, or if you are listening to a broadcast
and the reception becomes weak, the naviga-
tion system will automatically search for a dif-
ferent station with the same programming.
During the search,
PI SEEK is displayed and
the output is muted. Muting is discontinued
after completion of the PI Seek, whether or not
a different station is found.
Activating the Auto PI seek for
preset stations
When preset stations cannot be recalled, as
when travelling long distances, the unit can
be set to perform PI Seek during preset recall.
p The default setting for Auto PI Seek is off.
