Using the RDS Functions
PI Seek Function
The tuner searches for another frequency broadcasting the same program-
ming. "PI SEEK" appears on the display and the radio volume is muted
during a PI Seek. The muting is discontinued after completion of the PI
Seek, whether or not the PI seek was successful. If the PI Seek is unsuc-
cessful, the tuner returns to the previous frequency.
7 PI Seek
If the tuner fails to locate a suitable alternative frequency or if the broad-
casting signal is too weak for proper reception, the PI Seek will automati-
cally start.
7 Auto PI Seek (for preset station)
When preset stations cannot be recalled, as when traveling long distances,
the product can be set to perform PI Seek also during preset recall.
The default setting for Auto PI Seek is OFF.
Note:
• Refer to "Initial Setting" for details on how to switch Auto PI Seek ON/OFF.
REG Function
When AF is used to retune the tuner automatically, REG (regional) limits
the selection to stations broadcasting regional programs.
Note:
• Regional programming and regional networks are organized differently depend-
ing on the country (i.e., they may change according to the hour, state or broadcast
area).
• The preset number may disappear on the display if the tuner tunes in a regional
station which differs from the originally set station.
7 Activating REG
The REG function can be turned ON independently for each FM band.
1. Select the REG mode (REG) in the Function Menu.
2. Activate or deactivate REG while in an FM band.
