RDS Messages
ALERT!: Alert warns of local or national emergencies.
When an alert announcement comes on the current
radio station, ALERT! will appear on the display. You will
hear the announcement, even if the volume is muted
or a compact disc is playing. If the compact disc player
is playing, play will stop during the announcement.
You will not be able to turn off alert announcements.
ALERT! will not be affected by tests of the emergency
broadcast system. This feature is not supported by
all RDS stations.
INFO (Information): If the current station has a
message, the information symbol will appear on
the display. Press this button to see the message.
The message may display the artist and song title,
call in phone numbers, etc.
If the whole message is not displayed, parts of it will
appear every three seconds. To scroll through the
message at your own speed, press the INFO button
repeatedly. A new group of words will appear on
the display with each press. Once the complete
message has been displayed, the information symbol
will disappear from the display until another new
message is received. The old message can be displayed
by pressing the INFO button until a new message is
received or a different station is tuned to.
When a message is not available from a station,
NO INFO will be displayed.
TRAF (Traffic): Press this button to receive traffic
announcements. If the current tuned station does not
broadcast traffic announcements, the radio will seek to a
station that does. When the radio finds a station that
broadcasts traffic announcements, it will stop. TRAF will
appear on the display and when a traffic announcement
comes on you will hear it. If no station is found, NO
TRAF will appear on the display.
When a traffic announcement comes on the current
station or on a related network station, you will hear it,
even if the volume is muted or a compact disc is playing.
The traffic symbol and TRAF will appear on the display
while the announcement plays. If the compact disc player
was being used, play
will
stop during the announcement.
Traffic Interrupt Feature: Your radio can interrupt the
play of a CD. Press the TRAF button. The radio will
seek to a station that broadcasts traffic announcements.
When the radio finds a station that broadcasts traffic
announcements, it will stop. TRAF will appear on
the display. When a traffic announcement comes on the

traffic announcement is over, the radio will resume play
of the CD. If no station is found, NO TRAF will appear
on the display.
