Note:
In Mode 1, the broadcast may switch between different programmes
even within the same network at certain times.

Network-Tracking is activated and Regional mode is engaged (switches
between stations broadcasting the same programme, at all times).
• Mode 3 (AF: off/REG: off):
Network-Tracking is deactivated.
When driving in an area where the signal strength drops, the tuner
automatically uses PI (Programme Identification) and AF codes to retune to
the same programme with a stronger signal from another RDS station in the
network. By utilizing these codes, you can continue to listen to the same
programme in its finest condition, no matter where you drive. (See illustration.)
• When the RDS station to which you are tuned does not provide AF data or
the unit is unable to receive AF data for any reason, Network-Tracking
reception will NOT operate even when the signal strength drops below the
reference level.

EON (Enhanced Other Networks)
• When tuning in a broadcasting station
transmitting EON data, the EON indicator
is lit and the following operations start.
EON automatically stores the frequencies
of stations from other networks transmitting
information codes (TP/TA/AF/PTY/PS
(Programme Service), etc.) so they can be
mutually used. The following points have
been improved:
When listening to a station NOT transmitting
traffic inf ormation or NEWS for example, EON
automatically tunes to a station in a local
network when this information is broadcast
and then switches back to the original
programme when the broadcast ends. The
transmitted information (AF and other codes)
is constantly and automatically updated so
that preset programme information can be
heard immediately even if in a different
network area.
Traffic information and NEWS volume
control
This function adjusts the volume of traffic
information or news broadcasts.
1. Press the SEL button for more than 2
seconds to set the preferred setting mode.
2. Select “TA VOL” with the SEL button.
3. Set to the desired volume with the + or –
button. (See page 23.)
ENGLISH
11
Number buttons
When a number button is pressed, if the
station with that frequency is broadcasting a
sufficiently strong signal, the receiver will tune
to that frequency.
When the signal strength is not sufficient for
good reception, by referring to the AF list, the
receiver searches for a station broadcasting
the same programme with a stronger signal.
If a station cannot be found in the AF list, PIseek tuning starts. If a station broadcasting
the same PI code cannot be detected in one
search-cycle, PI-seek tuning is released and
the original preset frequency is tuned to.
CT (Clock Time)
When CT data is received in the RDS signal,
the time is correctly renewed.
• RDS updates the local time according to
Greenwich Mean Time.
• When automatic renewal of clock time is
NOT required, follow the steps below.
1. Press the SEL button for more than 2
seconds to set the preferred setting mode.
2. Select “AUTO ADJ” with the SEL button.
3. Press the “–” level control button and set to
“ADJ OFF”. (See page 23.)
Once these steps are completed, clock time
is not renewed even if the CT (Cloc k Time)
data is received with the RDS signal. When
you wish to reactivate this mode, repeat the
same procedure and in Step 3 press the “+”
Level Control button to set to “ADJ ON.” In
the activated mode, clock time is automatically
renewed when the CT data is received.
Display Mode
Setting the main display mode.
1. Press the SEL button for more than
2 seconds to set the preferred setting

2. Select “DISPMODE” with the SEL button.
3. Select the desired mode with the + or –

When the “CLOCK” mode is set, clock time

The DISP button is used to select the
Operation (Tuner, Tape or CD) and Clock
modes. Each time the button is pressed, the

Clock time.
The display returns to the initially preset mode
after a short while.
* When the RDS or PTY signal is weak or
when not tuned to an RDS or PTY station,
the station name or PTY is NOT displayed.
Note:
It takes at least 2 minutes to renew the time after
receiving CT data. The station must be received
for more than 2 minutes continuously, otherwise
the clock time will NOT be renewed.
