Receiving traffic announcements

TA (traffic announcement standby) lets you receive traffic announcements
automatically, no matter what source you are listening to. TA can be activated for both
a TP station (a station that broadcasts traffic information) or an enhanced other
network's TP station (a station carrying information which cross-references TP
stations).
1. Tune in a TP or enhanced other network's TP station.
The TP (
) indicator will light.
2. Press TA/NEWS to turn traffic announcement standby on.
• To turn traffic announcements standby off, press TA/NEWS again.
3. Use MULTI-CONTROL to adjust the TA volume when a traffic announcement
begins.
The newly set volume is stored in memory and recalled for subsequent traffic
announcements.
4. Press TA/NEWS while a traffic announcement is being received to cancel the
announcement.
The tuner returns to the original source but remains in the standby mode until TA/
NEWS is pressed again.
Notes
• You can also turn the TA function on or off in the menu that appears by using MULTI-
CONTROL.
• The system switches back to the original source following traffic announcement reception.
• Only TP and enhanced other network's TP stations are tuned in during seek tuning or BSM
when TA is on.
