AF SWITCHING function
(alternative frequency search)
The radio can operate in two different modes in the
RDS system:
❒ "AF Switching On": search for alternative
frequencies active (the letters "AF" appear on the
display);

frequencies not active.

function:

On”;

function.
With the function activated, the radio automatically
tunes into the station with the strongest signal
broadcasting the same programme. While driving, the
same station can be continuously listened to without
having to change the frequency when you change
zones.
Obviously, it must be possible to receive the station
that you are listening to in the area you are driving
through.
If the AF function is activated, "AF" will light up in the
display.
If the AF function has been activated and the radio is
not able to receive the current station, the radio
activates the automatic search, during which "FM
Search" appears on the display (only for top-of-the-
range radios).
With the AF function deactivated, the remaining RDS
functions, such as the display of the station name, still
remain active.
The AF function can only be activated on FM bands.

function:
❒ press the MENU button briefly and select “Traffic
