Using Standby Reception
Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to your favorite programme (PTY:
Programme Type) and Traffic Announcement (TA) from the current source (another FM station,
MD, CD, and other connected components).
Note:
Standby Reception will not work if you are listening to an AM station.
TA Standby Reception
• When TP RDS is pressed briefly in the FM mode, the TP indicator is lit
during reception of a TP station and the TA standby mode is engaged.
Note:
When the station being received is not a TP station, the TP indicator flashes. Press
¢ or 4 to engage the TA standby mode. “SEARCH” appears on the
display, and TP station search starts. When a TP station is tuned in, the TP indicator
is lit.
• If you are listening to a CD or an MD, and wish to hear a TA broadcast,
press TP RDS to enter the TA standby mode. (The TP indicator lights up.)
If a TA programme starts broadcasting while the TA standby mode is active,
“TRAFFIC” appears and the FM mode is engaged. The volume increases to
the preset “TA VOLUME” level and the TA programme can be heard (see
page 17).
Note:
To deactivate the TA standby mode, press TP RDS again.
