(8) a maximum of 12 stations in the UKW
band (6 U1 stations and 6 U2 stations),

(6 or 7) to tune the frequency to be en-
tered in the memory.
2. Press one of the memory select but-
tons (8) for about 2 seconds or longer.
The sound will be momentarily inter-

by pressing the button and then re-
leasing it within 2 seconds.
Automatic settingWith the method, all manually set stations in
the band currently selected for reception are

12 stations in the UKW band and 6 stations
each in the MW and LW band.
Follow the steps described below.
1. With the radio mode selected, hold
down the U/M/L button (3) until a beep
is emitted. The 6 stations with the best
signal strength will automatically be
assigned to the memory select but-
tons (8), with the lowest-frequency

and AF (alternative frequency) list trans-
mitted in addition to the normal UKW broad-
casting programs, and picks up the UKW
stations that are transmitting the same pro-
gram from the EON (enhanced other net-
work) and automatically tunes to the station
with the strongest signal intensity.
Therefore, you can continue listening to one
program in, for example, a long distance
driving without retuning to other station trans-
mitting the same program when you are
leaving the service area of the currently re-
ceiving station.
The RDS radio also features the limited re-
ception of the program types, the break-in re-
ception of the traffic announcement andemergency broadcast, and the limited/un-
limited reception of the regional programs.
