Other convenient RDS functions and adjustments

Automatic selection of the station when using the number buttons

Usually when you press the number button, the preset station is tuned in.

However, when the preset station is an RDS station, something different will happen. If the signals from that preset station are not sufficient for good reception, this unit, using the AF data, tunes in another frequency broadcasting the same programme as the original preset station is broadcasting. In case no other station is tuned in, you can also search all receivable frequencies for the same programme. (Programme search) To activate programme search, follow the procedure below.

Programme search takes a while.

2.Press ¢or 4to select “P(programme)-SEARCH.”

3.Select “ON” by turning the control dial clockwise. Now programme search is activated.

To cancel programme search, repeat the same procedure and select “OFF” in step 3 by turning the control dial counterclockwise.
