UsingRDSFunctions  
What is RDS?  
RDS (Radio Data System) is a system for transmitting data along with FM programs. This  
data, which is inaudible, provides a variety of features such as: program service name, pro-  
gram type display, traffic announcement standby, automatic tuning and program type tun-  
ing, intended to aid radio listeners in tuning to a desired station.  
Note:  
RDS service may not be provided by all stations.  
RDS functions, like AF (Alternative frequencies search) and TA (Traffic Announcement standby),  
are only active when your radio is tuned to RDS stations.  
Program Service Name Display  
With this function, the names of networks/stations providing RDS services replace the fre-  
quency on the display a few seconds after they are tuned in.  
• When you want to know PTY Information or the frequency of the current  
station, change the display.  
Each press changes the Display ...  
Each press of the DISPLAY button selects the display in the following order:  
Program Service Name = PTY Information = Frequency  
Note:  
After switching displays, if you do not perform an operation within 8 seconds, the Program Service  
Name is automatically displayed.  
7 PTY Information  
PTY (Program Type ID code) information for the currently tuned station appears on the  
display for 8 seconds. The information is correlated with the list in the section “PTY List”  
on page 20.  
Note:  
If a PTY code of zero is received from a station, “NONE” will be displayed. This indicates that the  
station has not defined its program contents.  
If the signal is too weak for this product to pick up the PTY code, “NO PTY” will be displayed.  
7 Frequency  
The frequency of the current station appears on the display.  
13  
 
AF Function (AF)  
The AF (Alternative Frequencies search) function is used to search for other frequencies in  
the same network as the currently tuned station. It automatically retunes the receiver to  
another frequency in the network which is broadcasting a stronger signal when there are  
problems with reception of the currently tuned station or better reception is possible on  
a different frequency.  
Note:  
AF tunes the receiver only to RDS stations when you use Seek tuning or BSM Auto Memory with  
the “AF ” indicator ON.  
When you recall a preset station, the tuner may update the preset station with a new frequency from  
the station’s AF list. (This is only available when using presets on the FM1 and FM2 bands.) No  
preset number appears on the display if the RDS data for the station received differs from that for  
the originally stored station.  
Sound may be temporarily interrupted by another program during an AF frequency search.  
When the tuner is tuned to a non-RDS station, the “AF ” indicator flashes.  
AF can be switched ON or OFF independently for each FM band.  
Activating/Deactivating the AF Function  
AF is set to ON by default.  
1. Press the FUNCTION button and select the AF mode (AF) in the Function  
Menu.  
2. Activate or deactivate AF while in an FM band.  
“AF” disappears.  
14  
UsingRDSFunctions  
PI Seek Function  
The tuner searches for another frequency broadcasting the same programming. “PI SEEK”  
appears on the display and the radio volume is muted during a PI Seek. The muting is discon-  
tinued after completion of the PI Seek, whether or not the PI seek has succeeded. If the PI  
Seek is unsuccessful, the tuner returns to the previous frequency.  
PI Seek  
If the tuner fails to locate a suitable alternative frequency or if the broadcasting signal is  
too weak for proper reception, the PI Seek will automatically start.  
Auto PI Seek (for preset station)  
When preset stations cannot be recalled, as when traveling long distances, this product can  
be set to perform PI Seek also during preset recall.  
The default setting for Auto PI Seek is OFF.  
Note:  
Refer to “Initial Setting” for details on how to switch Auto PI Seek ON/OFF.  
Regional Function (REG)  
When AF is used to retune the tuner automatically, REG (regional) limits the selection to  
stations broadcasting regional programs.  
Note:  
Regional programming and regional networks are organized differently depending on the country  
(i.e., they may change according to the hour, state or broadcast area).  
The preset number may disappear on the display if the tuner tunes in a regional station which dif-  
fers from the originally set station.  
REG can be switched ON or OFF independently for each FM band.  
Activating/Deactivating the REG Function  
The REG function is set to ON by default.  
1. Press the FUNCTION button and select the REG mode (REG) in the  
Function Menu.  
2. Activate or deactivate REG while in an FM band.  
15  
 
TA Function (TA)  
The TA (Traffic Announcement standby) function lets you receive traffic announcements  
automatically, no matter what source you are listening to. The TA function can be activat-  
ed for either a TP station (a station that broadcasts traffic information) or an enhanced  
other network’s TP station (a station carrying information which cross-references TP sta-  
tions).  
Activating/Deactivating the TA Function  
1. Tune in a TP or enhanced other network’s TP station.  
The TP indicator “TP” lights when the tuner is tuned to a TP station or an enhanced other  
network’s TP station.  
2. Activate the TA function.  
“TA” “TP”  
The TA indicator “TA” lights, indicating that the tuner is waiting for traffic announce-  
ments.  
Repeat the preceding operation when no traffic announcement is being received to deacti-  
vate the TA function.  
Note:  
You can also switch the TA Function ON/OFF in the Function Menu.  
The system switches back to the original source following traffic announcement reception.  
The TA function can be activated from sources other than tuner if the tuner was last set to the FM  
band but not if it was last set to the MW/LW band.  
If the tuner was last set to FM, turning on the TA function lets you operate other tuning functions  
while listening to sources other than tuner.  
Only TP or enhanced other network’s TP stations are tuned in during the Seek Tuning mode when  
the TA indicator “TA” is ON.  
Only TP or enhanced other network’s TP stations are stored by BSM when the TA indicator “TA”  
is ON.

Canceling Traffic Announcements  
• Press the TA button while a traffic announcement is being received to cancel  
the announcement and return to the original source.  
The announcement is canceled but the tuner remains in the TA mode until the TA button is  
pressed again.  
Adjusting the TA Volume  
When a traffic announcement begins, the volume adjusts automatically to a preset level to  
enable you to hear the announcement clearly.  
• Set the volume by adjusting it during reception of a traffic announcement.  
The newly set volume is stored in memory and recalled for subsequent traffic announce-  
ments.  
TP Alarm Function  
About 30 seconds after the TP indicator “TP” is extinguished due to a weak signal, a 5 sec-  
ond beep sounds to remind you to select another TP or enhanced other network’s TP sta-  
tion.  
• If you are listening to the tuner, tune in another TP station or enhanced  
other network’s TP station.  
In sources other than tuner, the tuner automatically seeks out the TP station with the  
strongest signal in the current area 10 (or 30)* seconds after the TP indicator “TP” disap-  
pears from the display.  
* Time taken before Seek begins.

Usode lasfunciones RDS  
¿Qué es RDS?  
RDS (Radio Data System) es un sistema para transmisión de dados con los programas de  
FM. Esos datos, que son inaudibles, proveen una variedad de funciones tales como:  
nombre de servicio de programa, indicación de tipo de programa, espera por anuncio de  
tráfico, sintonización automática y sintonización por tipo de programa, para ayudar los  
oyentes de radio a sintonizar una emisora deseada.  
Nota:  
El servicio RDS puede no ser disponible para todas las emisoras.  
Las funciones RDS, como AF (Alternative Frequencies search) y TA (Traffic Announcement  
standby), son solamente activas cuando su radio se sintoniza en emisoras RDS.  
Visualización del nombre de servicio de programa  
Con esta función, los nombres de redes/emisoras que proveen servicios RDS reemplazan la  
frecuencia en el visualizador por algunos segundos después de sintonizada la emisora.  
• Cuando desee saber la información PTY o la frecuencia de la emisora actual,  
cambie la visualización.  
Cada presión cambia la visualización ...  
Cada vez que se presiona el botón DISPLAY, la visualización cambia en el siguiente  
orden:  
Nombre de servicio de programa = Información PTY = Frecuencia  
Nota:  
Después de cambiar las visualizaciones, si no se realiza una operación dentro de 8 segundos, el  
nombre de servicio de programa se visualiza automáticamente.  
7 Información PTY  
La información PTY (código de identificación de tipo de programa) para la emisora  
sintonizada actualmente aparece en el visualizador por 8 segundos. La información se  
correlaciona con la lista en la sección “Lista de PTY” en la página 20.  
Nota:  
Si se recibe un código PTY cero de una emisora, “NONE” (ninguno) será visualizado. Eso indica  
que la emisora no ha definido el contenido de sus programas.  
Si la señal está muy débil para que este producto capte el código PTY, “NO PTY” se visualizará.  
7 Frecuencia  
La frecuencia de la emisora actualmente aparece sobre en el visualizador.

Función AF (AF)  
La función AF (Alternative Frequencies search) se usa para buscar otras frecuencias en la  
misma red de la emisora sintonizada actualmente. La función sintoniza de nuevo el  
receptor automáticamente a una otra frecuencia en la red con señales más fuertes, cuando  
hay problemas en la recepción de la emisora sintonizada actualmente, o si es posible  
obtener una mejor recepción en una frecuencia diferente.  
Nota:  
La función AF sintoniza el receptor solamente en emisoras RDS cuando se usa la sintonización de  
búsqueda o la función BSM con el indicador “AF ” encendido.  
Cuando se llama una emisora preajustada, el sintonizador puede actualizar la emisora preajustada  
con una nueva frecuencia desde la lista AF de la emisora. (Esto solamente se dispone cuando se  
usan los preajustes en las bandas FM1 y FM2.) Ningún número preajustado aparece en el  
visualizador si los datos RDS para la emisora recibida son diferentes de los datos para la emisora  
almacenada originalmente.  
El sonido puede interrumpirse temporalmente por un otro programa durante la búsqueda de  
frecuencia AF.  
Cuando el sintonizador se sintoniza en una emisora no RDS, el indicador “AFdestella.  
La función AF se puede activar y desactivar independientemente para cada banda FM.  
Activación/desactivación de la función AF  
La función AF está activada por omisión.  
1. Presione el botón FUNCTION y seleccione el modo AF (AF) en el menú de  
funciones.  
2. Active o desactive la función AF mientras esté en una banda FM.  
Desaparece “AF ”.

Función de búsqueda PI  
El sintonizador busca por una otra frecuencia transmitiendo el mismo programa. “PI  
SEEK” (búsqueda PI) aparece en el visualizador y el volumen de la radio se enmudece  
durante la búsqueda PI. El enmudecimiento cesa después de completada la búsqueda PI,  
tenga la búsqueda PI sido exitosa o no. Si la búsqueda PI no es exitosa, el sintonizador  
vuelve a la frecuencia anterior.  
Búsqueda PI  
Si el sintonizador no logra localizar una frecuencia alternativa apropiada o si la señal de  
radiodifusión es muy débil para una recepción apropiada, la búsqueda PI comenzará  
automáticamente.  
Búsqueda PI automática (para la emisora preajustada)  
Cuando no se pueden llamar a emisoras preajustadas, como durante un viaje, se puede  
ajustar el producto para realizar la búsqueda PI también durante la llamada de emisoras  
preajustadas.  
La búsqueda PI automática está desactivada por omisión.  
Nota:  
Para más detalles sobre cómo activar y desactivar la búsqueda PI automática, consulte a la sección  
“Ajustes iniciales”.  
Función regional (REG)  
Cuando se usa la función AF para sintonizar de nuevo el receptor automáticamente, la  
función REG (Regional) limita la selección a emisoras que transmiten programas  
regionales.  
Nota:  
Los programas regionales y redes regionales se organizan de manera diferente dependiendo del país  
(es decir, pueden cambiar de acuerdo a la hora, estado o área de radiodifusión).  
El número preajustado puede aparecer en el visualizador si el receptor sintoniza una emiso
