RDS News and Traffic Announcement (TA)
You may set up the tuner in such a way that listening to CD
or tape is interrupted by the news of a RDS station. This
only works if the RDS station broadcasts a NEWS signal
while sending the news.
1 Tune to the desired RDS station.
2 Press NEWS/TA once or more on the remote control to
select the news option.
™
NEWS ON, TA ON or OFF is displayed briefly.
™ NEWS is displayed if you have activated the news or
TA option. Changing listening source will not disarm
the function.
Notes:
• To avoid unwanted recordings, the
NEWS announcement
does not work while recording a cassette.
• When you receive RDS news or traffic announcements
during CD playback, playback will pause and you will be
able to hear the news/TA. Playback resumes after the
broadcast has finished. In tape mode, the tape continues
playing but you will hear the news/TA only until the
broadcast has finished.
• If you are using the RDS NEWS announcement with an
EON station, the whole network is searched for the
respective news.

There are a number of ways to disarm the news feature:
• Press NEWS/TA on the remote control during reception
