Recalling stored stations

Receiving traffic programme stations with RDS-EON

This function is particularly convenient on longer trips.

•Press the FM·T button until the search process begins.

The radio will search for the strongest FM stations and store them on the memory bank “T” (Travelstore). When this process has been completed, the radio will play the first station.

If desired, stations can also be stored manu- ally on the Travelstore bank (see “Storing stations”).

You can recall any stored station at the touch of a button.

•Select the waveband by pressing the FM·T or M·L button and for FM select the memory bank with FM·T.

Toggle FM·T until the desired memory bank is indicated in the display

•Toggle the corresponding preset button until the desired preset station appears in the display.

Many FM broadcasters offer traffic mess- ages for their service area at regular inter- vals.

All traffic programme stations transmit a spe- cial carrier signal alongside their program- mes, which is decoded by your car radio. If this signal is identified, “TP” will appear in the display (Traffic Programme).

In addition to these, there are also stations which do not actually transmit traffic pro- grammes themselves, but by using RDS- EON they offer the possibility to receive the traffic messages broadcast by another traffic programme station in the same radio net- work. If you listen to one of these stations (e.g. NDR3), “TP” will appear in the display as soon as the priority for traffic programme stations has been activated, i.e. “TA” must be displayed.

If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the radio will automatically switch to the linked traffic programme station (in this case, NDR2) for the duration of the message and return to the original programme (NDR3) afterwards.

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.

When pressing TA while a message is being broadcast, this message will be interrupted. The unit will then switch back to the previous condition. The priority for other traffic messa- ges remains active.

Warning beep

If you leave the reception area of the traffic programme station currently tuned into, you will hear a warning beep after approximately 30 seconds.

This alarm tone will also be released when recalling a preset button which has no traffic programme allocated to it.

b)Switch off the priority for traffic an- nouncements:

•Press TA.

“TA” will disappear from the display.
