Recording the traffic
announcements
—Traffic Information Replay (TIR)
You can listen to the latest traffic
announcements by recording them. The unit

exceeds eight minutes, the recorded

automatically and records the traffic
announcements for up to two hours before and
after a preset time.

Presetting the RDS
stations with the AF and
TA data
When you preset RDS stations, the unit stores
each station’s data as well as its frequency, so
you don’t have to turn on the AF or TA
function every time you tune in the preset
station. You can select a different setting (AF,
TA, or both) for individual preset station, or
the same setting for all preset stations.

preset stations

Press (AF/TA) repeatedly to select either
“AF on,” “TA on” or “AF TA on” (for both
AF and TA functions).
Note that selecting “AF TA off” stores not
only RDS stations, but also non-RDS
stations.

Press (SHIFT), then press (4) (PLAY
MODE) repeatedly until “B.T.M” appears.
4
Press (5) (t) until “B.T.M” flashes.
