Traffic announcement priority
on/off
If the priority for traffic announcement pro-
grammes is activated, “TA” will light up in
the display.
To switch the priority on or off:
• Press the TA button.
If you press TA while a message is being

ous mode. The priority for other traffic mes-

Warning beep
If you leave the reception area of the traffic
information station you are currently tuned
into, you will hear a warning beep at inter-
vals of approx. 30 seconds.
This warning beep will also be emitted if you

Traffic information station reception with RDS-EON
The abbreviation “EON” stands for En-
hanced Other Networks, which means that
information is exchanged within a radio net-
work.
Many FM radio stations provide their serv-
ice area with traffic messages at regular in-
tervals.
Along with their programs, all traffic infor-
mation stations transmit a special carrier
signal, which is decoded by your car radio.
If this signal is identified, “TP” will appear in
the display (Traffic program).
In addition to these, there are also stations
which do not actually transmit traffic infor-
mation themselves, but by using RDS-EON
it is possible for them to forward the traffic
messages broadcast by another traffic in-
formation station in the same radio network.
If you want to have the priority for traffic an-
nouncements activated while listening to
one of these stations (e.g. NDR3), “TA” must
appear on the display panel.
If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the
radio will automatically switch to the linked
traffic program station (in this case, NDR2)
for the duration of the message and return
to the original program (NDR3) afterwards.
• press a preset button which has a
traffic information station allocated to
it.
Or:
b) Switch off the priority for traffic an-
nouncements:
• Press TA.
“TA” will disappear from the display.
Automatic seek tuning start
(CD operation)
If you leave the reception area for the traffic
information station you have tuned into while
you are listening to a CD, the system will
automatically start searching for a new TA
station. If no such station is found within
approximately 30 seconds, a warning beep
will sound every 30 seconds. To switch the
warning beep off, proceed as described
above.
Adjusting the volume for traffic
announcements and the warning
beep
This volume was preset at the factory, but
you can use the DSC function to alter the
setting as desired (see “DSC programming
- TA VOL”).
