Listening To Traffic Announcements - Sony CDX-M610 Operating Instructions Manual

Listening to traffic
announcements
The Traffic Announcement (TA) and Traffic
Programme (TP) data let you automatically
tune in an FM station that is broadcasting
traffic announcements even if you are listening
to other programme sources.
Press (AF/TA) repeatedly until "TA on" or
"AF TA on" appears.
The unit starts searching for traffic
information stations. "TP" appears in the
display when the unit finds a station
broadcasting traffic announcements.
When the traffic announcement starts,
"TA" flashes. The flashing stops when the
traffic announcement is over.
Tips
• If the traffic announcement starts while you are
listening to another programme source, the unit
automatically switches to the announcement and
goes back to the original source when the
announcement is over.
• If you select the mode using the buttons on the
unit, press (TA) until "TA on" appears.
Note
"NO TP" flashes for five seconds if the received
station does not broadcast traffic announcements.
Then, the unit starts searching for a station that
broadcasts it.
To cancel the current traffic
announcement
Press (AF/TA).
To cancel all traffic announcements, turn off
the function by pressing (AF/TA) until "AF
TA off" appears.

Presetting the volume of traffic
announcements
You can preset the volume level of the traffic
announcements beforehand so you won't miss
the announcement. When a traffic
announcement starts, the volume will be
automatically adjusted to the preset level.

Press (AF/TA) for two seconds.

Receiving emergency
announcements
If an emergency announcement comes in while
you are listening to the radio, the programme
will be automatically switched to it. If you are
listening to a source other than the radio, the
emergency announcements will be heard if
you set AF or TA to on. The unit will then
automatically switch to these announcements
no matter which source you are listening to at
the time.
