Temporarily have reception switched from stereo to mono to
reduce multi-path noise when listening to the FM station.
Display and setting:
"CRSC ON" : The CRSC is on. (Default setting)

NOTE
Strong electrical fields (such as from power lines) may cause
unstable sound quality when CRSC is turned on. In such a
situation, turn it off.

AF (Alternative Frequency) Function

another frequency broadcasting the same program in the
same RDS network with better reception.
The RDS indicator lights up when the AF function is turned on.

"AF ON" : The AF function is on. (Default setting)
"AF OFF" : The AF function is off.

When no other stations with stronger reception are available for
the same program in the RDS network, you may hear the
incoming broadcast in bits and snatches. Turn off the AF function
in such a case.
