Receiving traffic

announcements

TA (traffic announcement standby) lets you re-

ceive traffic announcements automatically, no

matter what source you are listening to. TA

can be activated for both a TP station (a sta-

tion that broadcasts traffic information) or an

enhanced other networks TP station (a station

carrying information which cross-references

TP stations).

1 Tune in a TP or enhanced other net-

works TP station.

When you are tuned into a TP or enhanced

other networks TP station the Traffic (T) indi-

cator will light.

2 Press TA to turn traffic announcement

standby on.

Press TA and TA ON appears in the display.

The tuner will stand-by for traffic announce-

ments.

# To turn traffic announcements standby off,
press TA again.

3 Use Multi-Control to adjust the TA vo-

lume when a traffic announcement begins.

Rotate it to increase or decrease the volume.

The newly set volume is stored in memory and

recalled for subsequent traffic announce-

ments.

4 Press TA while a traffic announcement

is being received to cancel the announce-

ment.

The tuner returns to the original source but re-

mains in the standby mode until TA is pressed

again.

# You can also cancel the announcement by
pressing SOURCE, BAND or Multi-Control while
a traffic announcement is being received.

Notes

! You can also turn the TA function on or off in

the menu that appears by using

source following traffic announcement recep-
tion.

tions are tuned in during seek tuning or BSM
