Presetting RDS stations with the AF and TA data

When you preset RDS stations, the unit stores each station’s data as well as its frequency, so you don’t have to turn on the AF or TA function every time you tune in the preset station. You can select a different setting (AF, TA, or both) for individual preset stations, or the same setting for all preset stations.

Presetting the same setting for all preset stations

1 Select an FM band (page 6).

2 Press (AF/TA) repeatedly to select either “AF,” “TA” or “AF TA” (for both AF and TA functions).

Locating a station by programme type
