Traffic information memory
Automatic recording of traffic reports
If the traffic information function is switched on and a traffic information station
is received, the incoming traffic reports will be recorded, as long as the ignition is
switched on. This way you are informed at any time of the current traffic situa-
tion, even if you have your radio switched off for a lengthy period while driving.
If the vehicle is not in use (ignition off) while a traffic information station is re-
ceived and the traffic information function is switched on, incoming traffic reports
from this station are recorded for two hours.
When switching the ignition off the current traffic information station is displayed
for about five seconds, from which the next two hours of traffic reports will be
recorded. During this display of five seconds, you can select another traffic infor-
mation station using the arrow keys on the unit, which will be recorded.
If, when the vehicle is not in use, the reception of the set traffic information sta-
tion is too poor because of external influences, it will automatically search for an-
other traffic information station.
A maximum of nine traffic announcements with a total length of up to four mi-
nutes can be recorded. The oldest traffic report will always be overwritten if the
memory is full.
TIM recording times
You also have the possibility to set two TIM recording times, to which the unit will
also record traffic reports when the vehicle is not in use. Then the radio starts ac-
cording to the set TIM recording time with the recording of all the incoming traffic
reports on the set traffic information station.
For example, when you drive your vehicle to work everyday at a certain time, only
enter the approximate start time. The radio starts with the recording 90 minutes
before the set start time and ends the recording 30 minutes afterwards. In this
way, before you begin your journey, you can retrieve the last traffic reports and
tune into the current traffic situation of the distance to be driven. Note
■ In case of a message of over four minutes long, the beginning is overwritten.
■ If the vehicle has not been used for more than three days, no further traffic re-
ports are recorded, in order to stop the vehicle battery from running down. Ð Playing traffic reports
