Using the standby receptions

TA Standby Reception

TA Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to Traffic Announcement (TA) from any source other than AM. The volume changes to the preset TA volume level if the current level is lower than the preset level (see page 17).

To activate TA Standby Reception

The TP (Traffic Programme) indicator either lights up or flashes.

• If the TP indicator lights up, TA Standby Reception is activated.

• If the TP indicator flashes, TA Standby Reception is not yet activated. (This occurs when you are listening to an FM station without the RDS signals required for TA Standby Reception.)

To activate TA Standby Reception, tune in to

another station providing these signals. The TP indicator will stop flashing and remain lit.

To deactivate the TA Standby Reception

The TP indicator goes off.

Ex.: When “ROCK M” is selected

3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 to store other

PTY codes into other preset numbers.

PTY Standby Reception

PTY Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to your favorite PTY programme from any source other than AM.

To activate and select your favorite PTY code for PTY Standby Reception, see page 16.

The PTY indicator either lights up or flashes.

• If the PTY indicator lights up, PTY Standby Reception is activated.

• If the PTY indicator flashes, PTY Standby Reception is not yet activated.

To activate PTY Standby Reception, tune in

to another station providing these signals. The PTY indicator will stop flashing and remain lit.

To deactivate the PTY Standby Reception, select “OFF” for the PTY code (see page 16). The PTY indicator goes off.

Tracing the same programme—

Network-Tracking Reception

When driving in an area where FM reception is not sufficient enough, this unit automatically tunes in to another FM RDS station of the same network, possibly broadcasting the same programme with stronger signals (see the illustration below).

When shipped from the factory, NetworkTracking Reception is activated.

To change the Network-Tracking Reception setting, see “AF-REG” on page 16.
