Reception of traffic announcements with RDS-EON

Many FM broadcasters provide their service
area with traffic messages at regular inter-
vals.
All traffic program stations transmit a special
signal parallel to the radio program. Your car
radio is able to identify such traffic program
station by this TP signal. The display will
indicate "TP" to confirm that a traffic program
station is tuned in.
Other radio stations do not air traffic announ-
cements by themselves, but offer the possi-
bility to receive the traffic announcements of
another radio station within the same radio
network. During reception of such a station
(e.g. NDR3) "TP" lights on the display as
soon as the priority of traffic announcements
is activated. Then the display has to light
"TA".
If a traffic announcement is aired, your radio
will switch to the traffic program station for the
duration of the message and will switch back
to the previous station after the end of the
message.
Priority of traffic announcements
ON/OFF
"TA" lights up in the display, if the priority of
traffic announcements is on. To switch the
function on and off,
• press the TA button.
If you press TA when a traffic announcement
is played, the radio stops playing the messa-
ge and switches to the previous mode. The
priority of later traffic announcements re-
mains on.

Warning beep

Whenever you leave the reception area of
the traffic program station you are tuned to,
you will hear a warning beep after approxi-
mately 30 seconds.
This warning beep will also be released, if
you press a preset button on which a station
without traffic program is stored.

• Press the rocker switch or
• press a preset button to recall a
traffic program station.
or
b) Switch the traffic message priority off:
