EMERGENCY 
ALARM RECEPTION

The radio can receive emergency alerts in
RDS mode in exceptional circumstances
or when dangerous situations are threat-
ened (earthquakes, floods, etc.), if these
are being transmitted by the broadcaster
tuned into.

This function is activated automatically and
cannot be turned off.

The wording “ALARM” is shown on the
display during the transmission of an emer-
gency alert. The volume of the radio
changes during this announcement in the
same way as during a traffic news.

EON FUNCTION 
(Enhanced Other Network)

In some countries, there are circuits that
group multiple broadcasters that are en-
abled to transmit traffic information to-
gether. In this case, the programme of the
station that is being listened to will be tem-
porarily interrupted to:

❒

receive traffic information (only with the
TA function on);

❒

listen to regional transmissions each
time they are transmitted by one of the
broadcasters in the same circuit.

STEREOPHONIC 
BROADCASTERS

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