RDS data telegram and contains information
on the program type. Program types e.g. are:

Reception of traffic
announcements with
RDS-EON
(Enhanced Other Networks)
Many FM broadcasters provide their service
area with traffic messages at regular inter-
vals.
All traffic program stations transmit a special
signal in parallel with the radio program,
which is processed by the car radio. As soon
as such a signal is received, the display
shows "TP" (Traffic Program).
Other radio stations do not air traffic announ-
cements by themselves, but offer the possi-
bility to receive the traffic announcements of
another station within the same radio net-
work. In this case, "TP" also lights up in the
display.
"TA" is displayed, if the priority for traffic
announcements is activated.
If a traffic announcement is aired, your radio
will automatically switch to the traffic pro-
gram for the duration of the message and
return to the previous station after the end of
the message.
Priority of traffic announcements ON/
OFF
If the priority of traffic announcements is
activated, "TA" lights up in the display. To
switch the function on/off:
• Press the TA button.
