to an FM station without the Radio Data System
signals required for TA Standby Reception.)
To activate the reception, tune in to another station
providing these signals. The TP indicator will stop
flashing and remain lit.
To deactivate the TA Standby Reception
The TP indicator goes off.
PTY Standby Reception
PTY Standby Reception allows the unit to switch
temporarily to your favorite PTY programme from any
source other than AM.
To activate and select your favorite PTY code for
PTY Standby Reception, see page 28.
The PTY indicator either lights up or flashes.
• If the PTY indicator lights up, PTY Standby Reception

PTY programme when a call connection is established
through “BT-PHONE.”
Tracing the same programme—
Network-Tracking Reception
When driving in an area where FM reception is not
sufficient enough, this unit automatically tunes in to
another FM Radio Data System station of the same
network, possibly broadcasting the same programme
with stronger signals (see the illustration below).
When shipped from the factory, Network-Tracking
Reception is activated.
To change the Network-Tracking Reception
setting, see “AF-REG” on page 28.
• When the DAB tuner is connected, refer to “Tracing
the same programme—Alternative Frequency
Reception (DAB AF)” on page 23.
Programme A broadcasting on different frequency areas
(01 – 05)
Automatic station selection—
Programme Search
Usually when you select a preset number, the station
preset in that number is tuned in.
If the signals from the FM Radio Data System preset
station are not sufficient for good reception, this
unit, using the AF data, tunes in to another frequency
possibly broadcasting the same programme as the
original preset station is broadcasting.
• The unit takes some time to tune in to another
station using programme search.
• See also page 28.
