Receiving Traffic Information
Press TA/AUDIO to turn on the Traffic Information
mode.
When the traffic information station is tuned in, the TA indicator
lights up.
Traffic information is heard only when it is being broadcast. If
traffic information is not being broadcast, the unit is set in the
standby mode.
When a traffic information broadcast begins, the unit
automatically receives it and the display shows “T. INFO.”
When traffic information broadcast is over, the unit will
automatically set in the standby mode.
• If the traffic information broadcast signal falls below a certain level,
the unit remains in the receiving mode for 1 minute. If the signal
remains below a certain level for over 70 seconds, “TA” blink light
up in the display.
• If you do not want to listen to the traffic information being received,
press TA/AUDIO to skip that traffic information message.
The T. INFO mode will remain in the ON position to receive the next
traffic information message.
• If the volume level is changed while receiving traffic information, the
changed volume level will be memorised. When traffic information is
received next time, the volume level will be automatically adjusted to
the level memorised.

broadcast during CD playback.
1
In the CD mode, press TA/AUDIO to turn on the
Traffic information mode.
The unit automatically starts to search the receivable traffic
broadcasts.
When the traffic information broadcast is searched out, the
CD mode is switched to the Radio mode and the unit
receives the traffic information broadcast.

automatically mutes the CD.
• When the traffic information broadcast finishes, the unit
automatically returns to the original source you were
playing before the traffic information broadcast began.
• The receiver is equipped with the EON (Enhanced Other Networks)
function so if the station being received does not broadcast the traffic
information, the receiver automatically tunes in the related station
that broadcasts the traffic information.

When the traffic information broadcast has finished,
the unit returns to the CD mode.
