Selecting alternative frequencies

If you are listening to a broadcast and the recep-
tion becomes weak or there are other problems,
the unit will automatically search for a different
station in the same network which is broadcast-
ing a stronger signal.
• AF is on as a default.

1 Press

FUNCTION

to select

AF.

Press

FUNCTION

until

AF

appears in the dis-

play.

off.

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
frequency from the station’s AF list. (This is
only available when using presets on the

FM1

or

FM2

band.) No preset number appears on

the display if the RDS data for the station
received differs from that for the originally
stored station.

• Sound may be temporarily interrupted by

another program during a AF frequency
search.

• When the tuner is tuned to a non-RDS station

the

AF

indicator flashes.

• AF can be switched 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 completion of the
PI seek, whether or not a different 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 42.

Limiting stations to regional program-
ming

When AF is used to automatically retune fre-
quencies, the regional function limits the selec-
tion to stations broadcasting regional
programs.
