TA (Traffic Announcement) Standby
Function
When you press and release the TA/
PTY button, TA comes on in the
display and the system stands by for
traffic announcements.
When the automatic traffic
information program (A-TP ON) is
selected, TP will come on in the
. display. This indicates that the traffic
reports can be received from the
traffic information broadcasting
station.
A-TP cross-references other
program services that broadcast
traffic information, and the traffic
reports can be received through
another program service in the RDS
network area.
You can receive traffic information
while you are listening to a disc or
tape (if equipped). If the system is
tuned to a TP station before playing
a disc or tape, the system will stand
by for traffic announcements with
the TA/PTY button pressed (TA
indicator is on) and the system will
switch from disc or tape to the traffic
announcement when it begins. You
will see TA-INFO in the display. The
system will return to the disc or tape
mode when the traffic information is
finished.
You can also switch to the normal
audio mode while you are listening to
the traffic information by pressing
the TA/PTY button. It does not
cancel the TA standby function.
