special carrier signal alongside their pro-
grammes, which is decoded by your car ra-
dio. If this signal is identified, “TP” will ap-
pear in the display (Traffic Programme).
In addition to these, there are also stations
which do not actually transmit traffic pro-
grammes themselves, but by using RDS-
EON they offer the possibility to receive the
traffic messages broadcast by another traf-
fic programme station in the same radio
network.
When pressing TA while a message is be-
ing broadcast, this message will be interrup-
ted. The unit will then switch back to the pre-
vious condition. The priority for other traffic
messages remains active.
Please note that several buttons have no
function while a traffic announcement is
broadcast.
Notice:
As earlier mentioned, these functions are
currently only supported by a limited number
of RDS stations.
Warning beep
If you wish to have the priority for traffic an-
nouncements activated while listening to
one of these stations (e.g. NDR3), “TA” must
appear on the display panel.
If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the
radio will automatically switch to the linked
traffic programme station (in this case,
NDR2) for the duration of the message and
return to the original programme (NDR3)
afterwards.
If you leave the reception area of the traffic
programme station currently tuned into, you
will hear a warning beep after approximate-
ly 30 seconds.
This alarm tone will also be released when
pressing a preset button which has no traf-
fic programme allocated to it.

“TA” will disappear from the dis-
play.
For example, it is possible to listen to traffic
reports via the front left (right) speaker only.
This provides the driver with the important
traffic information without bothering the rear
passengers too much.
Automatic seek tuning start
(CD operation)
When leaving the reception area of the tuned
in traffic programme station while listening
to a CD, the system will automatically start
searching for a new TA programme.
If no such station is found within approxi-
mately 30 seconds, CD operation will be
stopped and a warning beep will sound. To
switch the warning beep off, proceed as
described above.
