    Let \(M\) be a Stein manifold with projective compactification \((X,Y)\), and let \(A\subset Y\) be a connected analytic subset. For a compact subset \(K\subset M\), we denote by \(\mathcal{A}(K)\) the set of all functions which are holomorphic in a neighborhood of \(K\). Define \(\| f\| _K:= \max_{x\in K}| f(x)| \), for any \(f\in \mathcal{O}(M)\) and any compact subset \(K\). Let \(\{\varphi_n\}\) be a sequence in Aut \((M)\). A function \(f\in \mathcal{O}(M)\) is universal with respect to \(\{\varphi_n\}\) in \(\mathcal{A}(K)\) for all \(K\in \mathcal{K}(M,A)\) if every function in \(\mathcal{A}(K)\) is approximated uniformly on \(K\) by \(\{f\circ \varphi_n\}\) for all \(K\in \mathcal{K}(M,A)\). Theorem. Assume \(\mathcal{K}(M,A)\neq \emptyset\). Let \(\{\varphi_n\}\subset \Aut (M)\). If \(\{\varphi_n^{-1}\}\) is \(A\) runaway, then the set of all functions in \(\mathcal{O}(M)\) which are universal with respect to \(\{\varphi_n\}\) in \(\mathcal{A}(K)\) for all \(K\in \mathcal{K}(M,A)\) is the intersection of countable number of open dense subsets in \(\mathcal{O}(M)\). The authors study some examples.
