AF SWITCHING function
(alternative frequency search)
The radio can operate in two different
modes in the RDS system:
❒“AF ON”: search for alternative fre-
quencies activated (the letters “AF” ap-
pear in the display);
❒“AF OFF”: search for alternative fre-
quencies not activated.
Proceed as follows to activate/deactivate
the function:
❒press the MENU button and select “AF
ON”;
❒press the buttons ÷/˜to acti-
vate/deactivate the function.
With the function activated the car radio
will automatically tune into the station
with the strongest signal that is transmit-
ting the same programme. While driving,
the same station can be continuously lis-
tened to without having to change the fre-
quency when you change zones.
Obviously, it must be possible to receive
the station that you are listening to, in the
area you are driving through.If the AF function was activated, the “AF”
icon will light up on the display.
If the AF function has been activated and
the radio cannot receive the tuned station,
the radio activates the automatic search
during which the text “FM Search” will
be shown on the display (for versions/
markets where provided).
With AF function deactivated, the re-
maining RDS functions such as the radio
station name display, remain active.
The AF function can only be activated on
FM bands.
TRAFFIC INFORMATION function
(traffic news)
Some stations on the FM band (FM1, FM2
and FMA) can transmit information about
traffic conditions. In this case the text
“TA” appears on the display.
Proceed as follows to activate/deactivate
the TA function:
❒press the MENU button briefly and
select “TRAFFIC INFO”;
❒press the buttons ÷/˜to acti-
vate/deactivate the function.
If the TA function has been activated, the
“TA” icon lights up on the display.IMPORTANT If the TA function is acti-
vated with an audio source other than
Tuner (Radio) (CD, MP3, CD CHANG-
ER, telephone or Mute/Pause), the radio
can carry out an automatic search and
therefore it is possible, when reactivating
the Tuner (Radio) source, that the fre-
quency tuned into is different from the
one set previously.
With the TA function, it is possible to:
❒search only for RDS stations that trans-
mit on the FM band, that are enabled to
transmit traffic information;
❒receive traffic information even if the
CD/CD CHANGER player is on;
❒receive traffic information at a minimum
preset volume even with the radio vol-
ume off.
IMPORTANT In some countries there are
radio stations that, even with the TP func-
tion activated (the icon “TP” appears on
the display), do not transmit traffic infor-
mation.
If the radio is tuned to a station in the AM
band, when TA is activated it will tune to
the last selected station in the FM1 band.

The volume at which the traffic news is
transmitted depends on the listening vol-
ume:
❒listening volume below 5: traffic news
volume equal to 5 (fixed value);
❒listening volume above 5: traffic news
volume equal to listening volume +1.
If the volume is changed during the traffic
news, the level will not be shown on the
display; the new level will only be main-
tained during the traffic news in progress.
While traffic information is being received,
“TRAFFIC INFORMATION” will appear
on the display.
The TA function can be interrupted by
pressing any button on the car radio.REGIONAL MODE function
(reception of regional
transmissions)
Some national broadcasters transmit re-
gional programmes at certain times of the
day (that vary from region to region). This
function makes it possible to tune into lo-
cal (regional) broadcasters automatically
(see “EON function” paragraph).
If you want the radio to automatically tune
into the regional stations being broadcast
on the selected network, the function
must be activated.
To activate/deactivate the function use the
buttons ÷or ˜.
The current status of the function appears
on the display:
❒“REG ON” function activated.
❒“REG OFF” function deactivated.
If the function is deactivated and you have
tuned into a regional station working in a
given area and you enter a different area,
then the regional station received in the
new area will be broadcast.
IMPORTANT If the AF and REG functions
are active at the same time, once a bor-
der between two regions is crossed, the
radio may not switch correctly to a valid
alternative frequency.MP3 DISPLAY Function
(MP3 Compact Disc data display)
This function makes it possible to select
the information shown by the display
when listening to a CD containing MP3
tracks.
The function can be selected only if a
MP3 CD is loaded: in this case the text
“MP3 DISP” appears on the display.
To change the function use the buttons
÷or ˜.
The following settings are available:
❒“TITLE” (track title, if ID3-TAG is avail-
able);
❒“AUTHOR” (track author, if ID3-TAG
is available);

on the volume level will be:
– if the volume level is equal to or high-
er than the maximum value, the ra-
dio will come on at the maximum
volume;
– if the volume level is between the
minimum and maximum values, the
radio will come on at the same vol-
ume as before it was switched off;
– if the volume level is equal to or low-
er than the minimum value, the radio
will come on at the minimum volume.
❒“NO LIMIT” the radio will come on
at the same volume as before it was

imum volume value.
❒If turning on the radio the function
“TA”, “TEL” or an external audio
source is activated, the radio will turn
on with the volume set for these
sources. The volume can be adjusted
between the minimum and the maxi-
mum level, by deactivating the exter-
nal audio source.
❒If the battery charge is too low, the vol-
ume cannot be adjusted between the
minimum and the maximum level.
