RDS Messages
ALERT: Alert warns of local and national emergencies.
When, an alert announcement comes on the current
radio station or a related network station, ALERT
displays. You will hear the announcement, even if the
volume is low or a CD is playing. If a CD is playing, play
stops during the announcement. Alert announcements
cannot be turned off. If the radio tunes to a related
network station for the announcement, it returns to the
original station when the announcement is finished.
ALERT is not affected by tests of the emergency
broadcast system. This feature is not supported by all
RDS stations.
MSG (Message): If the current RDS station has a
message, MSG displays. The message can display the
artist, song title, call in phone numbers, etc. If the
entire message does not display, parts of the message
displays every three seconds until the message is
complete. Once the completed message has displayed,
MSG disappears from the display until another new
message is received.
To display the last message, perform the following
steps:
1. Press the
w knob to enter the main menu.
2. Turn this knob until RECALL RDS MESSAGE
displays.
3. Press the same knob and the message displays.
Once the message displays, MSG disappears from the
display until another new message is received.
TP (Traffic Program): TP displays when the radio
detects a signal from an RDS station that has traffic
announcement broadcast capability.
TA (Traffic Announcement): If TA displays, the tuned
radio station broadcasts traffic announcements, and
when a traffic announcement comes on the tuned
station, you will hear it.
If the station does not broadcast traffic announcements,
when TA is turned on it seeks to a station that does.
When a station that broadcasts traffic announcements is
found, the radio stops seeking and TA displays. If no
station is found that broadcasts traffic announcements,
No Traffic displays.
