TA (Traffic Announcement)
In the TA standby mode, when a traffic announce-
ment broadcast starts, the traffic announcement
broadcast is received as top priority regardless of
the function mode so you can listen to it. Traffic
programme (TP) automatic tuning is also possible.
∗ 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

traffic announcement broadcast starts, “TRA
INFO” appears in the display. If you press the
[TA] button while a traffic announcement
broadcast is being received, the traffic
announcement broadcast reception is cancelled
and the unit goes into the TA standby mode.

When “TP” is not lit, if you press the [TA] button,
