2. If the radio detects traffic information on ei-
ther the station currently selected or another
station, the display will show “TRAF INF”
for 5 seconds followed by a 2-second indica-
tion of the frequency. Then, it will show the
name of the station broadcasting the traffic in-
formation to which you will listen. The vol-
ume level is set separately for listening to nor-
mal audio programs and for listening to traf-
fic information. The volume level will there-
fore change automatically to that set when
traffic information was last received. When
the traffic information broadcast is over, the
radio will return to the previously received
program and to the corresponding volume lev-
el.
3. Press the TP/PTY button to return to the pre- vious condition.
NOTE l While “TP” is illuminated, the radio stops on-
ly at TP stations even if the SELECT knob is
turned.
TP (Traffic information Program) search function E00721800201
The traffic information program standby function
is
turned on (with the TP indicator shown on the dis-
play) and after about 45 seconds since the RDS in-
dicator turns off due to weak signal or the tuning
station is changed over from a TP station to a sta-
tion which does not broadcast traffic information,
and seeks out a TP station in all frequencies auto-
matically.
The TP search function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 6-15. Emergency broadcasts
E00721700255 If an emergency broadcast is caught while receiv-
ing
a FM broadcast or playing back a compact disc
with the electric motor switch in the “ACC” or
“ON” position, the display will show “ALARM”
and the emergency broadcast will interrupt the cur-
rent program. The volume level is set separately
for listening to normal audio programs and for lis-
tening to emergency broadcasts. The volume level
will therefore change automatically to that set
when an emergency broadcast or traffic informa-
tion broadcast was last received. When the emer-
gency broadcast is over, the radio will return to the
previously received program and to the correspond-
ing volume level. Function setup mode
