RDS uses PI (program identification) signal and AF (alternative frequency) list transmitted in addition to the normal FM broadcasting programs, and picks up the FM stations that are transmitting the same program from the AF list and automatically tunes to the station with the strongestsignal intensity.
Therefore, you can continue listening to one program in, for example, a long distance driving without retuning to the other station transmitting
the same program when you are leaving the service area of the currently receiving station.
The RDS radio also features the limited reception of the program types, the break-in reception of the traffic announcement to the EON (enhanced
other network) and emergency broadcast, and the limited/unlimited reception of the regional programs.
AF (Alternative Frequencies)
function
E00720900061
The AF function finds a station broadcasting
the same program and selects the station with the strongest signal of AF lists.
The AF function is turned on (with the AF in- dicator (12) 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
7-24.
CT (Clock Time) function
E00721000131
The clock can be set automatically by using
the signal from the local RDS stations. Refer to “Adjusting the time” on page 5-12.
REG (Regional) function
E00721100057
REG function limits to receive the stations
broadcasting regional programs.
Regional programming and regional net- works are organized differently depending on
the country or area (they may be changed ac- cording to the hour, state, or broadcast area),
so if you don’t want to receive the regional
programs automatically, you can set up REG
ON not to receive regional programs.

The REG function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page
7-24.
PI (Program Identification)
search function
E00721200221
When travelling long distance and the recal-
led preset station is weak, the radio searches
another frequency broadcasting the same pro- gramming with the same PI code in AF list.
If there are no frequencies broadcasting the
same programming, the radio searches a fre-
quency broadcasting the regional program-
ming. The radio succeeds in searching the re- gional programming, then the display shows the REG indicator (11).
If the radio does not succeed in searching the
regional programming, the radio returns to
the recalled preset station.
The PI function can be turned ON and OFF.
