Selecting alternative

frequencies

If you are listening to a broadcast and the re-

ception becomes weak or there are other pro-

blems, the unit will automatically search for a

different station in the same network which is

broadcasting a stronger signal.

! AF is on as a default.

1 Touch A.MENU and FUNCTION and then

touch AF.

2 Touch a to turn AF on.

# To turn AF off, touch b.

Notes

! Only RDS stations are tuned in during seek

tuning or BSM when AF is on.

! When you recall a preset station, the tuner

may update the preset station with a new fre-
quency from the stations AF list. (This is only
available when using presets on the FM1 or
FM2 bands.) No preset number appears on
the display if the RDS data for the station re-
ceived differs from that for the originally
stored station.

! Sound may be temporarily interrupted by an-

other program during an AF frequency
search.

! AF can be turned on or off independently for

each FM band.

Using PI Seek

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 unit will

automatically search for a different station

with the same programming. During the

search, PI SEEK is displayed and the output is

muted. The muting is discontinued after com-

pletion of the PI Seek, whether or not a differ-

ent station is found.

Using 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.

! The default setting for Auto PI Seek is off.

See Switching Auto PI Seek on page 95.

Limiting stations to regional

programming

When AF is used to automatically retune fre-

quencies, the regional function limits the se-

lection to stations broadcasting regional

programs.

1 Touch A.MENU and FUNCTION and then

touch REGIONAL.

2 Touch a to turn the regional function

on.

# To turn the regional function off, touch b.

Notes

! Regional programming and regional networks

are organized differently depending on the
country (i.e., they may change according to
the hour, state or broadcast area).

! The preset number may disappear on the dis-

play if the tuner tunes in a regional station
which differs from the originally set station.

! The regional function can be turned on or off

independently for each FM band.
