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 to another frequency broadcasting the
same programme as the original preset station is
broadcasting. (Programme search)
