AF (Alternative Frequencies) functionE00720900146
The AF function finds a station broadcasting the
same program and selects the station with the stron-

The AF function is turned on (with the AF indica-
tor (10) shown on the display) at all times unless
you manually switch it off.

The AF function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-20.CT (Clock Time) function E00721000128

nal from the local RDS stations. Refer to “Digital
clock” on page 5-34.
REG (Regional) function E00721100015

casting regional programs.
Regional programming and regional networks are
organized differently depending on the country or
area (they may be changed according to the hour,
state, or broadcast area), so if you don’t want to re-
ceive the regional programs automatically, you can
set up REG ON not to receive regional programs.

The REG function can be turned ON and OFF.

PI (Program Identification) search function E00721200175

programming, the radio searches a frequency broad-
casting the regional programming. The radio suc-
ceeds in searching the regional programming, then
the display shows the REG indicator (14).
If the radio does not succeed in searching the re-
gional programming, the radio returns to the recal-
led preset station.
The PI function can be turned ON and OFF on
some vehicles.

2.If the radio detects traffic information on ei-
ther the station currently selected or another
station, the display will show “TRAF INF”
for 5 seconds followed by a 2-second indica-
tion of the frequency. Then, it will show the
name of the station broadcasting the traffic in-
formation to which you will listen. The vol-
ume level is set separately for listening to nor-
mal audio programs and for listening to traf-
fic information. The volume level will there-
fore change automatically to that set when an
emergency broadcast or traffic information
was last received. When the traffic informa-
tion broadcast is over, the radio will return to
the previously received program and to the
corresponding volume level.
3. Press the TP button (6) to return to the previ-
ous condition.
NOTE l While “TP” is illuminated, the radio stops on-
ly at TP stations even if the TUNE/SEEK but-
ton (3 or 4) is pressed.TP (Traffic information Program) search function E00721800155
The traffic information program standby function
is turned on (with the TP indicator (11) shown on
the display) and after about 45 seconds since the
RDS indicator (9) turns off due to weak signal or
the tuning station is changed over from a TP sta-
tion to a station which does not broadcast traffic in-
formation, the sound will beep 5 times and seeks
out a TP station in all frequencies automatically.

The TP search function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-20.
Emergency broadcasts E00721700183
Except during MW tuning, if an emergency broad-
cast is caught when the ignition switch is in the
“ACC” or “ON” position, the display will show
“ALARM” and the emergency broadcast will inter-
rupt the current program. The volume level is set
separately for listening to normal audio programs
and for listening to emergency broadcasts. The vol-
ume level will therefore change automatically to
that set when an emergency broadcast or traffic in-
formation broadcast was last received. When the
emergency broadcast is over, the radio will return
to the previously received program and to the corre-
sponding volume level.
