Tip
When the traffic announcement starts while you are
listening to another programme source, the unit
automatically switches to the announcement and goes back
to the original source when the announcement is over.
Notes
• “NO TP” flashes for five seconds if the received station
doesn’t broadcast traffic announcements. Then, the unit
starts searching for a station that does broadcast traffic
announcements.
• When the “EON” indication appears with “TP” on the
display, the current station makes use of broadcast traffic
announcements of other stations in the same network.
To cancel the current traffic
announcement
Press (AF/TA) momentarily.
To cancel all traffic announcements, turn
off the function by pressing (AF/TA) until
and “TA” disappears.
Presetting the volume of traffic
announcements
You can preset the volume level of the traffic
announcements beforehand, so you will not
miss the announcement. When a traffic
announcement starts, the volume will be
automatically adjusted to the preset level.
1 Select the desired volume level.
2 Press (3) while holding down (SEL).
A beep sounds, and the setting is stored.
Receiving emergency
announcements
If an emergency announcement comes in while
you are listening to the radio, the programme
will be automatically switched to the
announcement. If you are listening to a source
other than the radio, the emergency
announcements will only be heard if you set
AF or TA to on. The unit will then
automatically switch to these announcements
no matter what you are listening to at the time.
Listening to a regional programme
The “REG” (regional on) function of this unit
lets you stay tuned to a regional programme
without being switched to another regional
station. (Note that you must turn the AF
function on.) The unit is factory preset to
“REG“ but if you want to turn off the function,
do the following.
Press (AF/TA) for more than two seconds
until “REG” disappears.
Note that turning the “REG” function off
might cause the unit to switch to another
regional station within the same network.
Note
This function does not work in the United Kingdom and in
some other areas.
Local link function (United
Kingdom only)
The Local Link function lets you select other
local stations in the area, even though they are
not stored in your presets.
1 Press a preset number button that has
stored a local station.
2 Within five seconds, press again the
preset number button of the local
station.
3 Repeat this procedure until the desired
local station is received.
Listening to traffic
announcements
The Traffic Announcement (TA) and Traffic
Programme (TP) data let you automatically
tune in an FM station that is broadcasting
traffic announcements even though you are
listening to other programme sources.
Press (AF/TA) until “TA” or “AF TA” lights
up on the display.
The unit starts searching for traffic
information stations. “TP” lights up on the
display when the unit finds a station
broadcasting traffic announcements.
When the traffic announcement starts,
“TA” flashes, then flashing stops when the
traffic announcement is over.
