EMERGENCY ALARM
RECEPTION
The radio can receive emergency alerts in
RDS mode in exceptional circumstances or
when dangerous situations are threatened
(earthquakes, floods, etc.) if these are be-
ing transmitted by the broadcaster tuned in-
to.
This function is activated automatically and
cannot be turned off.
The word ALARM will be shown in the dis-
play during the transmission of an emer-
gency announcement. The volume of the ra-
dio will change during this announcement in
the same way as during a traffic bulletin.

EON FUNCTION

(Enhanced Other Network)
In some countries, there are circuits that
group multiple broadcasters that transmit
traffic information together. In this case, the
programme on the station that is being lis-
tened to will be temporarily interrupted to:
❒ receive traffic information (only with the
TA function on);
❒ listen to regional transmissions each time
they are transmitted by one of the broad-
casters in the same circuit.

STEREO STATIONS

If the incoming signal is weak, the repro-
duction is automatically switched from
Stereo to Mono.
