AUDIO TRAF (Traffic) function: A station that regularly broadcasts traffic information is automatically sought and broadcasts when the program starts. When you push the "TRAF" button, "TRAF SEEK" appears on the display and the radio will start seeking any traffic program station. If any traffic program station is not found, "NO TRAF INFO" appears on the display for a few seconds and the previous mode returns. However, if the "TRAF" button is pushed in the "TAPE" or "CD" mode, the radio will start seeking traffic program station again after 20 seconds. If the traffic program station is found, the name for traffic program station is displayed for a while until traffic announcement is received. On reception of traffic announcement, you will hear a beep and "TRAF ANNOUNCE" appears on the display for a few seconds. After the traffic announcement program is over, one beep sounds and the previous mode returns. TA volume level: The volume of the traffic information program can be adjusted independently by turning the "POWER VOL" knob while a traffic program station is received. Radio text message: 21g126 If the radio receives a radio text message during FM reception, "MSG" and a text message appears on the display. After the text message goes off, "MSG" also goes off. After the text message goes off from the display, pushing the "MSG" button during receiving the message shows the text message again on the display. The RDS audio system has memory to store three messages consisting of 64 characters. To store a message in memory, push the "MSG" button until you hear a beep. If three messages are already stored in memory, the oldest message will be overwritten by the new message. 157
