Traffic Memo (TIM)
This set is equipped with a digital speech memory which can automatically record
up to four traffic messages lasting a maximum of four minutes.
As soon as
TP
appears in the display, the system will record all incoming traffic
messages broadcast by the station when the radio is switched on.
If the priority for traffic announcements is activated (
TA
shown in the display
panel), the set will also record the messages broadcast by the traffic station of
the same programme network (see also “Traffic message reception with RDS-
EON”).
If “
TIM ACTIVE
” appears briefly in the display when the radio is switched off,
the TIM standby mode is active. In this case the radio will record the traffic infor-
mation broadcast for 90 minutes before and after the programmed TIM times
even if it is switched off.
The radio will also record the traffic messages broadcast by the last station it was
tuned into for three hours after the set has been switched off.
Depending on the length of the new message, the oldest messages will be delet-
ed automatically.
If a message is longer than four minutes, “
OVERFLOW
” will appear in the display
header for 2 seconds after you have activated TIM to indicate that the system
was unable to record the message in full.
