The behaviour of the set during Autostore
is as follows:
– at the beginning of the Autostore func-
tion all the other functions are disabled
– any change in volume is not shown on
the display
– pressing one of the radio function but-
tons, for example "PTY" (2), "˙˙" (7),
"¯¯" (4), (17), (16), (15), (12),
(11), (10) the automatic storage process
is interrupted, the last station heard before
Autostore was turned on is tuned and the
function associated with the button pressed
is run
– pressing "AF-TA" (1) during auto-
matic storage will interrupt it, the TA func-
tion (traffic information) will be turned
on/off and a new automatic storage process
will be started
– changing the sound source (Radio, Com-
pact Disc, CD-Changer) during automatic
storage, Autostore is not interrupted.
IMPORTANT Sometimes the Autostore
function is unable to find 6 stations with a
strong signal. In this case, the free presetting
buttons will be shown on the display, for
about 2 seconds, by 4 dashes and the last
station heard will be returned.

Listening to stored stations
Proceed as follows:
– select the required frequency band (FM,
MW, LW)
– briefly press one of the six station stor-
age buttons.
The display will show the number that cor-
responds to the button.
In bands FM1, FM2 and FMT, if reception
is poor and the AF alternative frequency
search function is active, the station with the
strongest signal that is broadcasting the
same programme will be sought automati-
cally.
AF function (alternative
frequency search)
Within the RDS system the radio can work
in two different modes:
AF ON: alternative frequency search on
AF OFF: alternative frequency search off.
When the signal of the RDS station tuned
weakens, the following two cases may oc-
cur:
– With AF ON the RDS system activates
automatic tuning of the optimum frequency
of the station chosen, with the stations en-
abled, therefore the radio is automatically
tuned to the station with the strongest sig-
nal that is broadcasting the same pro-
gramme. During the journey it will thus be
possible to continue listening to the station
chosen without having to change the fre-
quency when changing area. Of course, the
station being listened to must be receivable
in the area the car is crossing.
– With AF OFF the radio will not tune
the strongest station automatically and it
will have to be found manually using the
tuner buttons.
