Press (AF/TA) until “TA” or “AF TA” lights up on the display.
The unit starts searching for traffic information stations. “TP” lights up on the display when the unit finds a station broadcasting traffic announcements. When the traffic announcement starts, “TA” flashes, then flashing stops when the traffic announcement is over.
8
Tip
When the traffic announcement starts while you are listening to another programme source, the unit automatically switches to the announcement and goes back to the original source when the announcement is over.
Notes
• “NO TP” flashes for five seconds if the received station doesn’t broadcast traffic announcements. Then, the unit starts searching for a station that does broadcast traffic announcements.
• When the “EON” indication appears with “TP” on the display, the current station makes use of broadcast traffic announcements of other stations in the same network.
To cancel the current traffic announcement
Press (AF/TA) momentarily.
To cancel all traffic announcements, turn off the function by pressing (AF/TA) until “AF” disappears.

1 Select the desired volume level.
2 Press (3) while holding down (SEL).
“TA VOL” appears and the setting is stored.
Receiving emergency announcements
If an emergency announcement comes in while you are listening to the radio, the programme will be automatically switched to the announcement. If you are listening to a source other than the radio, the emergency announcements will only be heard if you set AF or TA to on. The unit will then automatically switch to these announcements no matter what you are listening to at the time.
Presetting the RDS stations with AF and TA data
When you preset the RDS stations, the unit stores each station’s data as well as its frequency, so you don’t have to turn on the AF or TA function every time you tune in the preset station. You can select different setting (AF, TA, or both) for individual preset stations, or the same setting for all preset stations.
Presetting the same setting for all preset stations
1 Select an FM band.
2 Press (AF/TA) repeatedly and select
either “AF“, “TA” or “AF TA” (for both AF and TA functions).
Note that turning the “AF TA” function off stores RDS stations as well as non-RDS FM stations.
3 Press (SENS/BTM) for two seconds.
Presetting different settings for each preset station
1 Select an FM band, and tune in the
desired station.
2 Press (AF/TA) repeatedly and select
either “AF“, “TA” or “AF TA” (for both AF and TA functions).
3 Press the desired preset number button
for two seconds until “MEM” appears.
Repeat from step 1 for presetting other stations.
Tip
If you want to change the preset AF and/or TA setting after you tuned in the preset station, you can do so by turning on/off the AF or TA function.

Additional Information
Precautions
•If your car was parked in direct sunlight resulting in a considerable rise in temperature inside the car, allow the unit to cool off before operating it.
•If no power is being supplied to the unit, check the connections first. If everything is in order, check the fuse.
•If no sound comes from the speakers of a 2-speaker system, set the fader control to the center position.
•When the tape is played back for a long period, the cassette may become warm because of the built-in power amplifier. However, this is not a sign of malfunction.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your unit that are not covered in this manual, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
To maintain high quality sound
If you have drink holders near your audio equipment, be careful not to splash juice or other soft drinks onto the car audio. Sugary residues on this unit or cassette tapes may contaminate the playback heads, reduce the sound quality, or prevent sound reproduction altogether. Cassette cleaning kits cannot remove sugar from the tape heads.
Notes on Cassettes
Cassette care
•Do not touch the tape surface of a cassette, as any dirt or dust will contaminate the heads.
•Keep cassettes away from equipment with built-in magnets such as speakers and amplifiers, as erasure or distortion on the recorded tape could occur.
•Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, extremely cold temperatures or moisture.
•Slack in the tape may cause the tape to be caught in the machine. Before you insert the tape, use a pencil or similar object to turn the reel and take up any slack.
Slack
•Distorted cassettes and loose labels can cause problems when inserting or ejecting tapes. Remove or replace loose labels.
Cassettes longer than 90 minutes
The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes is not recommended except for long continuous play. The tapes used for these cassettes are very thin and tend to be stretched easily. Frequent playing and stopping of these tapes may cause them to be pulled into the cassette deck mechanism.
