“TA-Traff. Ann.” FUNCTION
(TRAFFIC INFORMATION)
Certain stations in the FM band
(FM1, FM2, FM3 and FMAST) are al-
so enabled to broadcast information
about the conditions of the traffic. In
this case the displays shows the ab-
breviation “TP”.
To turn on/off the TA function (Traf-
fic Announcement) for traffic bulletins,
turn the encoder 14-fig. 1to select
the “TA-Traff. Ann.” function, then
press “ENTER” 15-fig. 1.
When the TA function is on, the dis-
play shows “TA” and symbol “✓” is
shown near the corresponding icon.The listening conditions and infor-
mation shown on the display may be
the following:
– TA and TP: you are tuned to a sta-
tion that broadcasts traffic information
and the traffic information function is
on
– TP: you are tuned to a station that
broadcasts traffic information but the
traffic information function is off
– TA: the traffic information function
is on but you are tuned to a station
that does not broadcast traffic infor-
mation
– TA and TP not shown on the dis-
play: you are tuned to a station that
does not broadcast traffic information
and the traffic information function is
off.
With the TA function on it is possi-
ble:
1) to receive traffic information al-
so if the CD/CDC/MP3 player is
working;
2) to receive traffic information at a
preset minimum level also with the ra-
dio volume down completely or in
stand-by. Listening to stored stations
Proceed as follows:
– choose the required frequency
band (FM1, FM2, FM3, FMAST, MW,
LW or AMAST) pressing repeatedly
the “SRC” key 3-fig. 1;
– press briefly one of the station
storage keys on the keypad 17-fig. 1
numbered from “1” to “6” at the bot-
tom of the main screen.
In the FM1, FM2, FM3 and FMAST
bands, if reception is poor and the
“AF-Alt. Freq.” alternative frequency
seek function is on, a station with the
strongest signal that is broadcasting
the same programme is automatically
sought.

The operations to be carried out for
each of the above two conditions are
listed below.
1) If you wish to receive traffic in-
formation while listening to a CD, be-
fore inserting the CD, tune to a sta-
tion enabled to broadcast traffic in-
formation (TP) and turn the TA func-
tion on. If, while playing the CD, this
station broadcasts traffic information,
CD playing will be temporarily
stopped and resumed automatically at
the end of the message.
If the CD player is already working
and at the same time you wish to re-
ceive traffic information, turning on
the TA function, the radio tunes to the
last station heard in the FM band and
the traffic announcements are trans-
mitted. 2) To receive traffic information
though not listening to the radio:
– turn on the TA function, so that
the display shows the abbreviation
“TA”;
– tune to a station enabled to broad-
cast traffic information so that “TP”
is shown on the display;
– set the system to stand-by press-
ing the “AUDIO” key 24-fig. 1.
This way, if that station broadcasts
traffic information, this will be heard
at a minimum predefined volume.
A telephone call has higher priority
than traffic message.IMPORTANT In certain countries,
radio stations exist which though the
TP function is active (the display shows
“TP”), do not broadcast traffic infor-
mation.
If the radio is working in the AM
band, choosing the FM band tunes to
the last station heard. If the chosen
station does not broadcast traffic in-
formation (“TP” not shown on the dis-
play), an automatic search is started
for an enabled station.
If the volume is changed during a traf-
fic bulletin the value is not shown on
the display and the new value is kept
only for the bulletin in progress.

– With AF OFF the radio will not
tune the strongest station automati-
cally and it will have to be found man-
ually using the tuner buttons.
To turn the “AF-Alt. Freq.” function
on/off, select “AF-Alt. Freq.” icon by
encoder 14-fig. 1and then press
“ENTER” 15-fig. 1repeatedly.
When the AF function is on, the dis-
play shows “AF” and the symbol “✓”
is shown near the icon.
The RDS channel name (if available)
is still shown on the display.“RDS” FUNCTION
The “RDS” function enables/disables
RDS string (showing the tuned station
name) display.
To turn the “RDS” function on/off,
select the “RDS” function turning the
encoder 14-fig. 1and then press
“ENTER” 15-fig. 1.
When the “RDS” function is on, the
display shows the string with tuned
station name and the symbol “✓” is
shown near the corresponding icon. “AF-Alt. Freq.” FUNCTION
(SEEKING ALTERNATIVE
FREQUENCIES)
Within the RDS system the radio can
work in two different modes:
– AF ON: alternative frequency
search on;
– AF OFF: alternative frequency
search off.
When the signal of the RDS station
tuned weakens, the following two cas-
es may occur:
– With AF ON the RDS system ac-
tivates automatic tuning of the opti-
mum frequency of the station chosen,
with the stations enabled, therefore
the radio is automatically tuned to the
station with the strongest signal that
is broadcasting the same programme.
During the journey it will thus be pos-
sible to continue listening to the sta-
tion chosen without having to change
the frequency when changing area. Of
course, the station being listened to
must be receivable in the area the car
is crossing.

During automatic storage the display
shows “Autostore”.
Stations will be stored automatically
on the preset keys from “1” to “6” of
the keypad17-fig. 1. After storage,
the radio tunes automatically to the
first station of the FMAST band, cor-
responding to the frequency stored on
the preset key “1” of the keypad 17-
fig. 1.
Every station is stored only once, ex-
cept in the case of regional pro-
grammes, which in certain cases might
be stored twice.
The behaviour of the set during Au-
tostore is as follows:
– at the beginning of the Autostore
function all the other functions are dis-

function (e.g. PTY) the automatic stor-
age process is interrupted, the last sta-
tion heard before tuning on Autostore
is tuned and the function associated
with the key pressed is run
– selecting and activating one or both
TA/AF functions during the automat-
ic storage process, automatic storage
will be interrupted, the TA (traffic in-
formation) and AF (alternative fre-
quencies) functions will be turned
on/off and a new automatic storage
process will be started
– changing the audio source (Radio,
CD, CD-Changer) during the auto-
matic storage process, the Autostore
