RDS News and Traffic Announcement (TA)

select the news option.

is displayed if you have activated the news or

the function.

announcement

does not work while recording a cassette.

during CD playback, playback will pause and you will be

broadcast has finished. In tape mode, the tape continues
playing but you will hear the news/TA only until the
broadcast has finished.

NEWS

announcement with an

EON station, the whole network is searched for the
