selects the station with the o\ftimum rece\ftion
conditions.
. Program Information (PI) search
Program In\bormation (PI) search begins automati- cally i\b no suitable station is \bound with the above
automatic switching \bunction. The PI search
\bunction checks each RDS station with the same
PI code. During this time the sound is muted and
“PI SEARCH” is dis\flayed. The PI search o\fera-
tion sto\fs when a suitable station is \bound. I\b no
station is \bound once all the \brequencies have been
searched, the radio returns to the \frevious
\brequency.
. Enhanced Other Network (EON) data update
(This function also operates when the AF
mode is off.)
When EON data is being received, this enables
automatic retuning o\b other \freset stations on the
same network. Also, network linked services can
be used. The EON indicator turns on during the

co\fditio\fs.
. Program Information (PI) search
Program I\fformatio\f (PI) search begi\fs automati- cally if \fo suitable statio\f is fou\fd with the above
automatic switchi\fg fu\fctio\f. The PI search
fu\fctio\f checks each RDS statio\f with the same
PI code. Duri\fg this time the sou\fd is muted a\fd
“PI SE\bRCH” is displayed. The PI search opera-
tio\f stops whe\f a suitable statio\f is fou\fd. If \fo
statio\f is fou\fd o\fce all the freque\fcies have bee\f
searched, the radio retur\fs to the previous
freque\fcy.
. Enhanced Other Network (EON) data update
(This function also operates when the AF
mode is off.)
Whe\f EON data is bei\fg received, this e\fables
automatic retu\fi\fg of other preset statio\fs o\f the
same \fetwork. \blso, \fetwork li\fked services ca\f
be used. The EON i\fdicator tur\fs o\f duri\fg
receptio\f of RDS EON statio\fs i\f the FM mode.
RDS functions:
. Programme Service (PS) function (station
name display function)
Whe\f a\f RDS statio\f is tu\fed i\f with seek or
ma\fual tu\fi\fg, RDS data is received a\fd the
Program Service (PS) \fame is displayed.
. Emergency broadcast interrupt function
(ALARM INTERRUPTION —EBU SPEC FOR
INFO)
Whe\f the radio receives PTY code 31 (a\f
emerge\fcy broadcast code) , the sou\fd is i\fter-
rupted, the emerge\fcy broadcast is heard, a\fd
“PTY31 \bL\bRM” is displayed. The volume level at
this time is the same as that for traffic a\f\fou\fce-
me\fts. O\fce the emerge\fcy broadcast is fi\fished,
the u\fit immediately retur\fs to the previous

Radio data system (RDS)
Alternative Frequency (AF):
.The A\f fun\btion operates in the \fM (radio) and CD
modes.
. When the A\f mode is set to “ON” in the user
setup menu mode, the A\f indi\bator illuminates.
\for a\btivation or dea\btivation, use the MENU button.
(Details are explained later in this se\btion.)
. Automatic switching function
This fun\btion \bompares the strengths of the
signals of all the stations on the A\f list and
sele\bts the station with the optimum re\beption
\bonditions.
. Program Information (PI) search
Program Information (PI) sear\bh begins automati-
\bally if no suitable station is found with the above
automati\b swit\bhing fun\btion. The PI sear\bh
fun\btion \bhe\bks ea\bh RDS station with the same
PI \bode. During this time the sound is muted and
“PI SEARCH” is displayed. The PI sear\bh opera-
tion stops when a suitable station is found. If no
station is found on\be all the frequen\bies have been
sear\bhed, the radio returns to the previous
frequen\by.
. Enhanced Other Network (EON) data update
(This function also operates when the AF
mode is off.)
When EON data is being re\beived, this enables
automati\b retuning of other preset stations on the
same network. Also, network linked servi\bes \ban
be used. The EON indi\bator turns on during the
re\beption of RDS EON stations in the \fM mode. RDS functions:
.
Programme Service (PS) function (station
name display function)
When an RDS station is tuned in with seek or
manual tuning, the RDS data is re\beived and the
Program Servi\be (PS) name is displayed.
. Emergency broadcast interrupt function
(ALARM INTERRUPTION —EBU SPEC FOR
INFO)
When the radio re\beives PTY \bode 31 (an
emergen\by broad\bast \bode) , the sound is inter-
rupted, the emergen\by broad\bast is heard, and
“PTY31 ALARM” is displayed. The volume level at
this time is the same as that for traffi\b announ\be-
ments. On\be the emergen\by broad\bast is finished,
the unit immediately returns to the previous
sour\be.
. REG (Regional) mode
Some lo\bal radio stations are linked together
a\b\bording to their region be\bause they only offer
limited \boverage due to their limited number of
transmitters. If the signal from one station be-
\bomes weak while you are driving around, RDS
mode will swit\bh to another lo\bal station in the
region with a stronger signal.
When the REG mode is a\btivated in the \fM band
and the radio re\beiver is tuned to a lo\bal radio
station, it will keep re\beiving this radio station
without swit\bhing to another lo\bal station. \for
a\btivation or dea\btivation, use the MENU button.
(Details are explained later in this se\btion.) . Traffic Announcement (TA):
.
The TA fun\btion operates in the \fM and CD
modes.
. The TA mode is turned on or off when the TA/
NEWS button is pushed for less than 2 se\bonds.
. The TA mode operates regardless of whether the
A\f mode is on or off.
. “TA ON” is displayed when the TA mode is turned
on, and the TA indi\bator turns on. “TA O\f\f” is
displayed when the TA mode is turned off, and the
TA indi\bator turns off.
The following fun\btions operate when the TA mode is
on:
. Traffic announcement interrupt function
When a traffi\b announ\bement is re\beived, the
announ\bement is tuned in and the volume
in\breases to the set level.
On\be the traffi\b announ\bement is finished, the unit
returns to the sour\be whi\bh was set before the
traffi\b announ\bement started, and the volume
returns to the previous level. \for EON stations,
the radio is interrupted by another EON station
with traffi\b announ\bements.
The traffi\b announ\bement interrupt mode is
\ban\belled if the TA/NEWS button is pushed
during a traffi\b announ\bement. The TA mode
returns to the standby mode and the audio unit
returns to the previous sour\be.
