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 on your number buttons.

1 Press a number button that has a local station stored on it.

2 Within five seconds, press the number button of the local station again.

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) repeatedly until “TA” or “AF TA” appears.

The unit starts searching for traffic information stations. “TP” appears in the display when the unit finds a station broadcasting traffic announcements. When the traffic announcement starts, “TA” flashes. “TA” stops flashing when the traffic announcement is over.

Tips

•If you press (AF/TA) while tuning in the traffic announcement, the unit can play a CD.

•If 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 does not broadcast traffic announcements. Then, the unit starts searching for a station that broadcasts traffic announcements.

•When “EON” appears with “TP” in the display, the current station makes use of traffic announcements broadcast by 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 “AF” and “TA” disappear.

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 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.
