Listening to traffic announcements

The Traffic Announcement (TA) and Traffic

GB 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 on” or “AF TA on” 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. The flashing stops when the traffic announcement is over.

Tip

If the traffic announcement starts while you are listening to another programme source, the unit automatically switches to the announcement and return 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 broadcast traffic announcements by other stations in the same network.

While the unit is receiving the traffic announcements, the voice drive function and voice memo function do not work.

To cancel the current traffic announcement

Press (AF/TA) or (SOURCE) momentarily. To cancel all traffic announcements, turn off the function by pressing (AF/TA) until “AF TA off” appears.

Presetting the volume of traffic announcements

You can preset the volume level of the traffic announcements beforehand so you won’t 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 (AF/TA) for two seconds.

“TA” appears and the setting is stored.

Receiving emergency announcements

If an emergency announcement comes in while you are listening to the radio, the programme will automatically switch 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.
