TA (Traffic Announcement)

In the TA standby mode, when a traffic announcement broadcast starts, the traffic announcement broadcast is received as top priority regardless of the function mode, so you can listen to it. The Traffic Programme (TP) automatic tuning is also available.

•This function can only be used when “TP” is displayed on the screen. When “TP” is displayed, this means that the RDS broadcast station being received has traffic announcement programmes.

●Setting TA standby mode

1.Press the [TA] button when only “TP” is displayed on the screen.

“TP” and “TA” will be displayed on the screen, and this unit will be set to the TA standby mode until a traffic announcement is broadcast. When a Traffic Announcement broadcast starts, “TRA INFO” is displayed on the screen.

If you press the [TA] button while a Traffic Announcement broadcast is being received, the Traffic Announcement broadcast reception is cancelled, and this unit goes into the TA standby mode.

●Cancelling TA standby mode

1.When “TP” and “TA” are displayed on the screen, press the [TA] button. “TA” on the screen goes off, and the TA standby mode is cancelled.

* If “TP” is not displayed, press the [TA] button to search for a TP station.

●Searching for a TP station

1.When “TP” is not displayed, press the [TA] button.

“TA” is displayed on the screen, and this unit automatically searches for a TP station.

Note:

•If no TP station is received, this unit continues the search operation. Pressing the [TA] button again makes the “TA” go off, and stops TP station searching.

Auto store function for TP stations

You can automatically store up to 6 TP stations into the preset memory. If the number of TP that can be received is less than 6, the broadcast stations already stored in memory are left without being overwritten.

1.When “TA” is displayed on the screen, touch the [List] key on the RDS mode screen.

2.Touch and hold the [AS] key for more than 2 seconds.

The TP stations with a good reception condition are stored into the preset memory.

* Even if you select FM1 or FM2, TP stations are stored into the memory for FM3.

PTY

This function enables you to listen to a broadcast of the specified programme type when the broadcast starts, even if this unit operates in a source mode other than the TUNER.

•The factory default setting is “OFF”.

•In the TA standby mode, a TP station has priority over a PTY broadcast station.

Selecting PTY
