of sensitivity appears in the display.
There are four levels of sensitivity for FM and
two levels for MW/LW:
FM:

LEVEL4
MW/LW:

OFF

—LEVEL1—LEVEL2

The

LEVEL4 setting allows reception of only

you receive progressively weaker stations.

Selecting alternative frequencies

When the tuner can

’t get good reception, the

unit automatically search for a different sta-
tion in a same network.

% Touch AF on the function menu to turn
AF on.

# To turn AF off, touch AF again.

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 station

’s 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 tuner can

’t find a suitable station, or re-

ception status becomes bad, the unit will auto-

matically search for a different station with a
same programming. During the search,
PI SEEK is displayed and the output is muted.

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 46.

Limiting stations to regional
programming

When AF is used, the regional function limits
the selection of stations broadcasting regional
programs.

% Touch REGIONAL on the function menu
to turn the regional function on.

# To turn the regional function off, touch
REGIONAL again.

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 from the

display 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.
