Switching traffic announcement
priority on/off
If the priority for traffic announcement pro-
grammes is activated, “TA” will light up in
the display.
To switch the priority on or off:
•
Press TA.
If you press TA while a message is being
broadcast, this message will be interrupted.
The unit will then switch back to its previous
status. The priority for all other traffic mes-
sages will remain active.
Please note that several buttons have no
function while traffic announcements are
broadcast.
Adjusting the volume for traffic
announcements and the beep tone
Although this volume was preset at the fac-
tory, you can alter it using the DSC function
(see “Programming with DSC – TA VOL-
UME”).
Beep tone
When a traffic programme station is activat-
ed (“TA” in the display), you will hear a beep
tone after approximately 30 seconds if you
leave the reception area of the traffic pro-
gramme station you are currently tuned into.
Traffic programme station reception with RDS-EON
The abbreviation “EON” stands for En-
hanced Other Networks which means that
information is exchanged between the ra-
dio stations belonging to the same broad-
casting network.
Many FM broadcasters provide traffic mes-
sages for their service area at regular inter-
vals.
All traffic programme stations transmit a
special carrier signal along with their pro-
grammes, which is decoded by your car ra-
dio. If this signal is identified, “TP” will ap-
pear in the display (Traffic Programme).
In addition to these, there are also stations
which do not actually transmit traffic pro-
grammes themselves, but by using RDS-
EON it is possible to receive the traffic mes-
sages broadcast by another traffic pro-
gramme station in the same radio network.
If you wish to have the priority for traffic an-
nouncements activated while listening to
one of these stations (e.g. NDR3), “TA” must
appear in the display.
If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the
radio will automatically switch to the linked
traffic programme station (in this case,
NDR2) for the duration of the message and
return to the original programme (NDR3)
afterwards.
You will also hear this beep if you press a
station preset button for a radio station which
does not broadcast the TP signal.
Switching off the beep tone
a) Tune into another station providing
traffic information:
• Press the rocker switch or
• press a preset button for a radio
station which has a traffic pro-
gramme station allocated to it.
or
b) Switch off the priority for traffic an-
nouncements:
• Press TA.
“TA” will disappear from the dis-
play.
Automatic seek tuning start
(tape and CD changer operation)
If you leave the reception area of the cur-
rent traffic programme station while listen-
ing to a tape or CD, the system will auto-
matically start searching for a new TA pro-
gramme.
