AF (Alternative Frequency) Function
When an emergency transmission (announcing disasters, etc.)
is sent, all current functions are interrupted to allow the
warning to be received.
Alarm
Stations that offer also transmit
information about other RDS stations that have traffic
information. When you are tuned to a station that is not
transmitting traffic information, but another RDS station starts
transmitting a traffic bulletin, the tuner automatically switches
to the other station for the duration of the bulletin.
Enhanced Other Network
RDS is a digital information system that lets you receive signals
besides those of regular radio programmes, such as network
information being transmitted from radio stations.
When listening to an RDS station (ie, a station with RDS
capability), the programme service name of the station is
displayed along with the frequency, advising you quickly which
station is being received.
RDS (Radio Data System) stations also transmit frequency data
for the same station. When you are making long trips, this
function automatically switches to the particular frequency with
the best reception for the particular network of stations that
you want to listen to. The data is automatically stored,
allowing you to switch quickly to another RDS stations,
broadcasting the same programme, that has better reception.
These include stations stored in the station preset memory that
you often listen to.
