Traffic Messages (ARI)
Many FM stations broadcast the current
traffic messages for their coverage area at
regular intervals.
Together with the programme, the traffic
stations transmit an “ARI signal”, which lets
your car radio detect the actual traffic stati-
on.
The traffic stations indicate the beginning
and the end of the message by an additional
signal. Traffic messages are “put through”
with a preset volume, the level of which can
be programmed (see chapter “Automatic
Start of the Station Seek Operation”). The
set automatically interrupts tape playback
and resumes play as soon as the message
is over.
