Selecting alternative frequencies

When the tuner cannot get a good reception, the unit automatically searches for a
different station in the same network.
* Press and hold TA/AF to turn AF on or off.
Using PI Seek
If the tuner cannot find a suitable station, or reception status deteriorates, the unit
automatically searches for a different station with the same programming. During the
search, PI SEEK is displayed and sound is muted.
Using Auto PI Seek for preset stations
When preset stations cannot be recalled, the unit can be set to perform PI Seek during
preset recall.
• The default setting for Auto PI Seek is off. Refer to "AUTO-PI (auto PI seek)" on page
13.
