TA (Traffic Announcement)
In TA standby mode, when a traffic announcement
broadcast starts, the traffic announcement broad-
cast is received as top priority regardless of the
function mode so you can listen to it. Traffic pro-
gramme (TP) automatic tuning is also possible.
∗
RDS interrupt does not function during AM radio
reception or in TV mode.
∗
This function can only be used when “TP” is lit in
the display. When “TP” is lit, this means that the
RDS broadcast station being received has traffic
announcement programmes.
●

If you press the [TA] button when only “TP” is lit in
the display, “TP” and “TA” light in the display and
the unit is set into TA standby mode until a traffic
announcement is broadcast. When a traffic an-
nouncement broadcast starts, “TRA INFO” ap-
pears in the display. If you press the [TA] button
while a traffic announcement broadcast is being
received, the traffic announcement broadcast re-
ception is cancelled and the unit goes into TA
standby mode.
●
Cancelling TA standby mode
With “TP” and “TA” are lit in the display, press the
[TA] button. The “TA” in the display goes off and
TA standby mode is cancelled.

If “TP” is not lit, pressing the [TA] button searches
for a TP station.

Searching for a TP station
When “TP” is not lit, if you press the [TA] button,
“TA” lights in the display and the unit automati-
cally searches a TP station.
Note:
• If a TP station is not received, the unit continues
the search operation. Pressing the [TA] button again
makes the “TA” indicator go off and stops TP sta-
tion searching.
Auto store function for TP stations
You can automatically store up to 6 TP stations
into preset memory. If the number of TP that can
be received is less than 6, broadcast stations al-
ready stored in memory are left without being over-
written.

dition are stored into preset memory.
