Using Radio Data System (RDS)

Setting alternative frequencies (AF) and
traffic announcement (TA)
AF continuously retunes the station to the strongest
signal in a network, and TA provides current traffic
information or traffic programs (TP) if received.

Press AF/TA to select [AF-ON], [TA-ON],
[AF/TA-ON] or [AF/TA-OFF].
To store RDS stations with the AF and TA
setting
You can preset RDS stations along with an AF/TA
setting. Set AF/TA, then store the station with BTM
or manually. If you preset manually, you can also
preset non-RDS stations.
To receive emergency announcements
With AF or TA on, emergency announcements will
automatically interrupt the currently selected
source.
To adjust the volume level during a traffic
announcement
Level will be stored into memory for subsequent
traffic announcements, independently from the
regular volume level.
To stay with one regional program

will not be switched to another regional station
with a stronger frequency. If you leave this regional
program's reception area, set [REG-OFF] in
