Range selection

Range selection

FM range: press the BN key repeatedly until the display shows the required range «FM 1», «FM 2» or «FM 3».

AM Range: press the BN key repeatedly until the display shows «MW» (medium wave) or «LW» (long wave).

Last station memory

Once the selection has been made, the last programme tuned on this range can be played (Last Station Memory) While in Last Station Memory mode, the set stores the settings present before it is turned off: selected station, CD or TAPE, and plays them when the set is turned on again.

Stereo reception - FM

When a stereo station is received, the display shows the corresponding symbol.

Traffic information reception (TP)

TP (Traffic Program): RDS station able to transmit traffic broadcasts.

TP function activation

Give the TP key a short press. This enables the traffic broadcast reception function: the display shows the message "TP"

When traffic information is received with the TP function active and another sound source is playing (e.g. CD or tape), the source is interrupted to listen to the radio information and the display shows the message "TA INFO" for 10 seconds.

At the end of the traffic information, the soruce is automatically switched to the source selected originally.

NOTE: if the station tuned in is not an RDS station able to broadcast traffic information, a search is automatically started for an RDS station when the TP function is selected.

Interrupting traffic information

Give the TP key a short press. The function still remains active to receive future traffic information.

RDS-EON

Because the radio offers the EON service, another station belonging to the same network may tune in while listening to a radio station to provide traffic information (only with TP function enabled); it will return to the original station automatically at the nd of the news.

NOTE: traffic information is provided at minimum volume. This volume may be adjusted by means of the EXPERT control menu.
If only traffic information is to be played, activate the function by means of the TP key and set the volume to zero using knob A

Alternative frequency (AF)

During reception of an RDS programme that is broadcast by several stations at different frequencies, the radio will automatically switch to the frequency with the best local reception.

NOTE: in a very poor reception area, the user may become aware of attempts to switch between sound frequencies due to frequent pauses. In this case, it is advisable to deactivate the AF function temporarily.
