PTY search (only on FM)
This function allows you to search for stations of the desired programme type.
☞
Touch the PTY symbol on the touchscreen to display the list of available programme types
(genres).
☞
Select the desired programme type to start a search for a radio station of the selected
programme type.
✎
PTY is not supported by all RDS stations and is not available in all countries.
■
AF retuning (only in FM):
The radio continuously checks a series of alternate frequencies (AF) for the selected station
and automatically chooses the best frequency.
☞
Touch the AF symbol on the touchscreen to switch the AF function on or off.
✎
Deactivate this function only if you hear brief interruptions in transmission or if the unit
automatically switches to an undesired station (e.g. to another regional station belonging
to the selected programme).
■
Traffic announcements (TA)
Activate this function if you wish to listen to traffic announcements (TA), e.g. during play-
back of other sources or when the unit is set to mute.
☞
Touch the TA symbol on the touchscreen to switch the TA function on or off.
✎
The automatic search only responds to stations that transmit traffic announcements (TA
stations).
✎
If the radio has not been tuned to a station with TA, it will automatically search for a sta-
tion broadcasting traffic announcements.
■
Traffic announcements from other stations – EON
With the RDS function EON (Enhanced Other Networks) you will hear traffic announcements
even if the set station does not transmit its own traffic information but is operating on a
network with other stations.
If you have activated "TA", stations with EON will be treated like TA stations, i.e. the search
will also stop at these stations.
✎
When a traffic announcement is made, the unit switches to a traffic information station
linked to EON. The programme name of the traffic information station is displayed during
the traffic announcement.
After the announcement, the unit returns to the previous programme.
