Danger of accident

Do not read Radio text while driving.
Please read the radio text only when the vehicle
is stationary.
As the radio text contents change constantly and
may distract the driver, radio text should only be
read when the vehicle is not in motion.
5.8. Traffic Program (TP)
If an RBDS/RDS diversity station transmits TP an-
nouncements, it is possible to have CD, CDC, and
AM operation interrupted so that the transmitted TP
announcements can be played. Moreover, you can lis-
ten to one FM station while receiving TP announce-
ments transmitted by another FM station.
There are two ways to select a TP transmitter:
- automatic tracking
- direct programming
Automatic tracking
always uses the current FM sta-
tion as TP-transmitter. If the selected FM station has
poor signal quality or cannot function as a TP trans-
mitter, the unit applies specified criteria to search for
a new TP transmitter.
Direct programming
makes it possible to have a TP
transmitter different from the current FM station. For
example, one FM station and TP announcements
transmitted by another FM station can be received si-
multaneously.
If reception from the programmed TP transmitter is
poor, the unit switches to automatic tracking until the
programmed TP transmitter is receivable.
If an RBDS/RDS station is equipped with traffic pro-
gramming, this is indicated by
TP
in the display.
An inverse
appears on the display to indicate that
the TP is active.
