'\QDPLF DXWRVWRUH )0 '$6 In FM DAS mode, all receivable stations are displayed above the multifunction buttons arranged according to alphabetical order. The user menu (Page 85) explains how to set your favourite stations for selection according toalphabetical order. Set the desired station by pressing the button directly below the abbreviated station designation. If the selected station broadcasts several programmes/ regional programmes, a submenu is automatically displayed to select the desired programme. If a programme has previously been selected that belongs to the particular transmitter chain, the last stored programme entry will be automatically selected. The symbol ! means that the button can be pressed for displaying and selecting additional stations. To indicate those stations not easily identified due to display of advertisement or news, the abbreviation /... /= (L = Local) is used, thus preventing constant switching in the lower display line. Selected stations of this type are indicated by a star (e.g. / ). When using the unit for the first time, or following interruption of the power supply, allow for a brief waiting period so that the receiver can evaluate the station signals. The display will appear incrementally as the evaluation progresses. 59 5DGLR 2SHUDWLRQ )0 WUDQVPLWWHU VHDUFK Turn the right rotary control to the left/right.

Pressing the right rotary control switches to fine tuning (1kHz steps). 63 5DGLR 2SHUDWLRQ 5HJLRQDOLVDWLRQ The RDS diversity function is independent of region. If the RDS diversity function should switch among various regional programmes with diverse broadcast contents, the special regional sub-programme must be selected directly. A transmitter must first be selected in order to see if it broadcasts more than one regional programme. Stations with additional regional transmitters are identified by a star (e.g. ). Upon selection of one of these stations (e.g. ) all receivable regional subprogrammes for this station will be displayed. At this point it is possible to select the desired regional sub-programme (e.g. %:.). If, despite RDS diversity function, the reception quality of a regional subprogramme is inferior, bear in mind that regional sub-programmes are transmitted for the most part over only a few frequencies. If the unit remains tuned to frequencies with better reception quality, there will be less drift. 6ZLWFKLQJ UHJLRQDOLVDWLRQ RQ RII Select radio menu mode.

Moreover, you can listen to one FM station while having TP announcements switched through that are transmitted by another FM station. There are two ways to select a TP station: DXWRPDWLF WUDFNLQJ GLUHFW SURJUDPPLQJ $XWRPDWLF WUDFNLQJ transmits TP announcements over the FM station currently being listened to. If the selected FM station reception is of poor quality or cannot function as a TP transmitter, the unit applies specified criteria to search for a new TP transmitter. 'LUHFW SURJUDPPLQJ enables a TP transmitter to be programmed that is not the FM station being listened to. You can, for example, listen to one FM station while having TP announcements switched through that are transmitted by another FM station. If the programmed TP transmitter reception becomes weak, the unit switches to automatic tracking until the programmed TP transmitter is receivable. If an RDS transmitter is provided with a traffic programme, an inverse T will appear on the display. If TP is activated, the currently selected TP transmitter will appear on the righthand side of the display. In addition, an inverse TP will appear on the display to indicate the activated traffic programme. 67 5DGLR 2SHUDWLRQ $FWLYDWLQJTXLWWLQJ WKH 73 PHQX $FWLYDWLQJPress and hold the button for longer than 2 seconds. 4XLWWLQJ Press and hold the button; otherwise, the TP menu will automatically disappear after 8 seconds if no further operations are performed. 6HWWLQJ DXWRPDWLF WUDFNLQJ Press multifunction button "73" repeatedly in the TP menu until 21 appears. ,PSRUWDQW If a TP transmitter has previously been directly programmed, it will once again be selected as TP transmitter.
