Receiving traffic announcements
TA (traffic announcement standby) lets you re-
ceive traffic announcements automatically, no
matter what source you are listening to. TA
can be activated for both a TP station (a sta-
tion that broadcasts traffic information) or an
enhanced other network’s TP station (a station
carrying information which cross-references
TP stations).
1 Tune in a TP or enhanced other net-
work’s TP station.
TP indicator lights.
2 Press TA to turn traffic announcement
standby on.
# To turn off, press TA again.
3 Use MULTI-CONTROL to adjust the TA
volume when a traffic announcement be-
gins.
The newly set volume is stored in memory and
recalled for subsequent traffic announce-
ments.
4 Press TA while a traffic announcement
is being received to cancel the announce-
ment.
The tuner returns to the original source but re-
mains in the standby mode until TA is pressed
again.
