The unit starts searching for an alternative frequency with a stronger signal in the same network. Receiving traffic announcements, even when enjoying another programme/source.

The unit will continue searching for stations available with TP if "NO TP" is indicated. When the AF function is on: this unit's factory setting restricts reception to a specific region, so you will not be switched to another regional station with a stronger frequency. If you leave this regional programme's reception area or would like to take advantage of the whole AF function, select "REG-OFF" from the menu (page 24).
