Traffic announcement priorityon/off

If the priority for traffic announcement pro-grammes is activated, “TA” will light up inthe display.To switch the priority on or off:• Press the TA button.When pressing TA while a message is be-ing broadcast, this message will be interrup-ted.

Warning beepIf you leave the reception area of the trafficprogramme station currently tuned into, youwill hear a warning beep after approximate-ly 30 seconds.This alarm tone will also be released whenpressing a preset button which has no traf-fic programme allocated to it.

The abbreviation “EON” stands for En-hanced Other Networks, meaning theexchange of information within a radio net-work.Many FM broadcasters offer traffic messag-es for their service area at regular intervals.All traffic programme stations transmit aspecial 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 stationswhich do not actually transmit traffic pro-grammes themselves, but by using RDS-EON they offer the possibility to receive thetraffic messages broadcast by another traf-fic programme station in the same radionetwork.If you wish to have the priority for traffic an-nouncements activated while listening toone of these stations (e.g. NDR3), “TA” mustappear on the display panel.If a traffic announcement is broadcast, theradio will automatically switch to the linkedtraffic programme station (in this case,NDR2) for the duration of the message andreturn to the original programme (NDR3)afterwards.

Care notesTo avoid possible problems, we recommendyou to use C-60/C-90 type cassette tapesonly. Store your tapes in a cool place awayfrom dirt, dust and temperatures exceeding50 °Celsius. Allow very cold tapes to warmup before playing them in order to avoiduneven tape transport. After approximately100 hours of use, dust particles collectedon the playback head or roller may lead totape run problems and sound distortions.Use a head cleaning tape to remove nor-mal dirt build-up. For tougher cases, use acotton swab (Q-Tip) soaked with alcohol. Donot attempt to clean by inserting a hard ob-ject into the player!
