RDS (Radio Data System)
This unit has a built-in RDS decoder system that sup-
ports broadcast stations transmitting RDS data.
This system can display the name of the broadcast
station being received (PS) and can automatically
switch to the broadcast station with the best recep-
tion as you move long distances (AF switching).
Also, if a traffic announcement or programme type
is broadcast from an RDS station, no matter what
mode you are in, this broadcast is received.
Additionally, if EON information is received, this
information enables automatic switching of other
preset stations on the same network and inter-
ruption of the station being received with traffic
information from other stations (TP). This func-
tion is not available in some areas.
When using the RDS function, always set the ra-
dio to FM mode.
• AF : Alternative Frequency
• PS : Programme Service Name
• PTY : Programme Type
• EON : Enhanced Other Network
• TP : Traffic Programme

Auto store
Auto store is a function for storing up to 6 sta-
tions that are automatically tuned in sequentially.
If 6 receivable stations cannot be received, a
previously stored station remains unoverwritten
at the memory position.
1. Press the [BND] button and select the desired
band (FM or AM (MW/LW)).
2. Press and hold the [PS/AS] button for 2 sec-
onds or longer. The stations with good recep-
tion are stored automatically to the preset
channels.
∗ If auto store is performed in the FM bands, the
stations are stored in FM3 even if FM1 or FM2
was chosen for storing stations.
Preset scan
Preset scan receives the stations stored in pre-
set memory in order. This function is useful when
searching for a desired station in memory.
1. Press the [PS/AS] button.
2. When a desired station is tuned in, press the
[PS/AS] button again to continue receiving
that station.
Note:
• Be careful not to press and hold the [PS/AS] but-
ton for 2 seconds or longer, otherwise the auto
store function is engaged and the unit starts stor-
ing stations.
