TA
TRAFFIC INFORMATION
(
TRAFFIC
ANNOUNCEMENTS
)
Some stations allow broadcasting of
these messages thanks to the "TA" func-
tion.
You can activate this function by pressing
on button "TA/PTY" (S).
Your system allows you to receive traffic
information flashes from an FM station
which broadcasts them, even though you
are listening to another radio programme
not itself providing traffic information, or
to another audio source.
The display will indicate "TA" if the func-
tion is active and the station is compatible
with these messages ; "TA" will be
barred on the monochrome display and
shaded on the colour display, if the sta-
tion is not compatible.
While traffic announcements are being
broadcast, the original radio programme,
or audio source being played, is paused.
When the messages are finished, your
NaviDrive will revert automatically to the
musical programme originally being lis-
tened to.
Note:
• You should be in FM wave band.
• During station search phases or auto-
matic memorisation phases, if the "TA"
function is active, the transmitters that
are compatible with the broadcasting of
these messages will be captured or
memorised first.
• The station being listened to should in-
dicate via the RDS system that it broad-
casts traffic information.
• Stations organised in a network (EON)
have regional transmitters sending
their own programmes: while listening
to one of these stations the system will
switch automatically to any station on
the network that is broadcasting traffic
information.
During the broadcast of a message you
can stop listening to it by pressing the
"TA/PTY" button (S), the "TA" function
remains active.

OUND VOLUME ADJUSTMENT FOR
TRAFFIC INFORMATION
The sound volume for traffic information
operates separately from that for the rest
of the system, and can be adjusted inde-
pendently.
Rotate button (C) while a traffic informa-
tion message is being broadcast.
This volume adjustment is memorised.

ADIO TEXT VIA CONTEXTUAL MENU
If you are in radio source, a press on the
control (G) lets you call up the Radio con-
textual menu to select "Reading of Ra-
dio Text" (information broadcast by the
station about the programme being lis-
tened to) (for example : name of singer,
title of song, etc.).
