3) To receive traffic information while not listening to
the radio:
❒turn on the TA function briefly pressing button 14
(AF-TA) so that the display shows “TA”;
❒tune to a station enabled to transmit traffic
information so that the display shows “TP” and turn
the volume to zero by turning the button/knob 18
(VOLUME ON/OFF).
This way, if that station broadcasts traffic information,
this will be heard at a minimum predefined volume.
IMPORTANT In certain countries radio stations exist
which, even if the TP function is on (the display shows
“TP”), do not transmit traffic information.
If the radio is working in the AM band, when button
14 (AF-TA) is pressed, it passes to the FM1 band on
the last station heard. If the station selected does not
broadcast traffic information the search for an enabled
station starts automatically.The volume with which the traffic bulletin is
transmitted varies depending on the listening volume:
❒listening volume below 20: traffic bulletin volume =
20 (fixed value);
❒listening volume above 20: same traffic bulletin
volume as the listening volume +1.
If the volume is changed during a traffic bulletin the
value is not shown on the display and the new value is
kept only for the bulletin in progress.
If the volume is changed during a traffic bulletin,
depending on the active audio source the following
cases may took place:
❒Radio on: a “beep” is given every 30 seconds;
❒Compact Disc, CD Changer (if installed), Telephone
or Mute on: a “beep” is given and the search for an
enabled station will start.
During a traffic bulletin it is possible to turn on sound
adjustment and the radio menu by pressing
respectively buttons 11 (MENU-PRESET SCAN) or 8
(AUDIO-LOUDNESS).
