Receiving emergency announcements

With AF or TA on, the emergency announcements will automatically interrupt the currently selected source.

Tip

If you adjust the volume level during a traffic announcement, that level will be stored into memory for subsequent traffic announcements, independently from the regular volume level.

Staying with one regional program— REG

When the AF function is on: this unit’s factory setting restricts reception to a specific region, so you will not be switched to another regional station with a stronger frequency.

If you leave this regional program’s reception area, set “REG-OFF” in setup during FM reception (page 17).

Note

This function does not work in the UK and in some other areas.
