RDS
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
F1
or
F2
bands.) No preset number appears on the
display if the RDS data for the station received
differs from that for the originally stored sta-
tion.
• 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 present 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 50.
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.

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 on the
display if the tuner tunes in a regional station
which differs from the originally set station.
•
REG
can be turned on or off independently for
each FM band.
