Usually when you select preset stations, the preset  
station is tuned in.  
If the signals from the FM RDS preset station are not  
sufficient for good reception, this unit, using the AF  
data, tunes in to another frequency broadcasting the  
same programme as the original preset station is  
broadcasting. (page 33)  
• The unit takes some time to tune in to another  
station using programme search.
