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
programmes.
1 Touch on the
“FM” screen.
The
“Function” menu appears.
2 Touch [Regional].
Each touch of [ Regional] turns it on or off.
p Regional programming and regional net-
works are organised differently depending
on the country (i.e., they may change ac-
cording to the time, country or broadcast
area).
p The preset number may disappear on the
display if the tuner tunes in a regional sta-
tion that differs from the originally set sta-
tion.
p The regional function can be turned on or
off independently for each FM band.

that programme type.
# If you touch [Stop], the search is cancelled.
p The programmes of some stations may dif-
fer from that indicated by the transmitted
PTY.

gramme you searched for,
“Not Found” is
displayed for about two seconds and then
the tuner returns to the original station.
Receiving traffic announcements
TA (traffic announcement standby) lets you re-
ceive traffic announcements automatically, no
matter what source you are listening to. TA
can be activated for both a TP station (a sta-
tion that broadcasts traffic information) or an-
other enhanced network
’s TP station (a station
carrying information that cross-references TP
stations).
1 Tune in a TP station or another en-
hanced network
’s TP station.
2 Touch [TA] on the
“Function” menu to
turn traffic announcement standby on.
p To turn traffic announcements standby off,
touch [ TA] again.
3 Use the VOL (+/
–) button or Multi-con-
trol to adjust the TA volume when a traffic
announcement begins.
The newly set volume is stored in memory and
recalled for subsequent traffic announce-
ments.
4 Touch [Cancel] while a traffic announce-
ment is being received to cancel the an-
nouncement.
The tuner returns to the original source but re-
mains in standby mode until [
TA] is touched
again.
You can also cancel the announcement by
changing the source or band.
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 the TA function is on.
