Receiving traffic
announcements

— TA/TP

By activating the Traffic Announcement (TA)
and Traffic Programme (TP). You can
automatically tune in an FM station
broadcasting traffic announcements. These
settings function regardless of the current FM
programme/source, CD; the unit switches
back to the original source when the bulletin is
over.

Press (TA) repeatedly until “TA-ON”
appears.
The unit starts searching for traffic
information stations.
“TP” indicates reception of such stations,
and “TA” flashes during an actual traffic
announcement. The unit will continue
searching for stations available with TP if
“NO TP” is indicated.

To cancel all traffic announcements, select
“TA-OFF.”

of the whole AF function, press (AF) for
2 seconds until "REG-OFF" appears.
