In the following cases, the EON stand-by mode will be cancelled.

Press the ON/STAND-BY button to enter the stand-by mode.

When the unit is switched to another band in the EON stand-by mode

When you change the FM station whilst in the EON stand-by mode

When a preset call is made

Notes:

During the same programme as the specified PTY (or TA) is being broadcast on the station you are receiving, the unit will not switch to other network station.

If there are more than two other network stations you want to listen to, compare the strength of each station's signal and tune in the station with the strongest signal. (EON-AF)

However, if the frequency of other network station has been stored in the preset channel memory, the unit will switch to that preset channel.

If you want to cancel the reception of an ON (other network) station which was tuned in by the EON system and return to the original station you were receiving, press the EON button.

After the unit returns to the original station, the stand-by mode will still be active. (The "TI" or "PTY" will remain lit.)

The unit will not switch from the ON station to another network station. The unit returns to the original station.

When the unit switches automatically to "other network" station, if there is any problem with this station or the station cannot be received properly "WEAK SIG" will appear and the unit will return to the original station.

Even if the unit switches from the station you are listening to directly to one "other network" station which is in the preset memory, if the signal is very weak, the unit will search for another station of other network and find out the station with the strongest signal and switch to it.

However, if the signals from all the other network stations are very weak, or if the tuning conditions are very bad (due to electrical noise), the unit will be displayed "WEAK SIG", and the unit will return to the original station you were receiving.
