Presetting RDS stations with AF and TA setting

When you preset RDS stations, the unit stores each station’s AF/TA setting (on/off) as well as its frequency. You can select a different setting (for AF, TA, or both) for individual preset stations, or the same setting for all preset stations. If you preset stations with “AF-ON” the unit automatically stores stations with the strongest radio signal.

Presetting the same setting for all preset stations

1 Select an FM band (page 10).

2 Press (AF) and/or (TA) to select “AF-

ON” and/or “TA-ON.”

Note that selecting “AF-OFF” or “TA-OFF” stores not only RDS stations, but also non- RDS stations.

3 Press (MENU), then press either side of (DISC) repeatedly until “BTM” appears.

4 Press (ENTER) until “BTM” flashes.

Presetting different settings for each preset station

1 Select an FM band, and tune in the desired station (page 11).

2 Press (AF) and/or (TA) to select “AF-

ON” and/or “TA-ON.”

3 Press the desired number button ((1) to (6)) until “MEM” appears.

Repeat from step 1 to preset other stations.
