RDS Messages
ALERT!: Alert warns of national or local emergencies.
You will not be able to turn off alert announcements.
ALERT! appears on the display when an alert
announcement plays. When an alert announcement
comes on the current radio station, you will hear it,
even if the volume is muted or a compact disc is
playing. If the compact disc player is playing, play
will stop for the announcement and resume when the
announcement is finished.
This function will only work during actual emergency
broadcasts, and will not work during tests of the
emergency broadcast system. This feature is not
supported by all RDS stations.
INFO (Information): If the current station has a
message, the information symbol will appear on the
display. These text messages are from the RDS
broadcaster to the listening public and may be general
information such as artist and song title, call in phone
numbers, etc. Press this button to see the message.
If the whole message does not appear on the display,
parts of the message will appear every three seconds
until the message is completed. To scroll through the
message at your own speed, press the INFO button again
for less than one second. A new group of words will
appear on the display. Once the complete message has
been displayed, the information symbol will disappear
from the display until another new message is received.
The old message can be displayed by pressing the INFO
button until a new message is received or a different
station is tuned to.
TRAF (Traffic): Press this button to receive traffic
announcements. If the current station does not broadcast
traffic announcements, the radio will seek to a station
that does. The traffic symbol will flash on the display.
When the radio finds a station that broadcasts traffic
announcements, it will stop. If no station is found, NO
TRAF will appear on the display.
Your radio can be programmed to interrupt the playback
of a CD or FM station by enabling the traffic interrupt
feature. Press the TRAF button once to seek to an RDS
station that supports the traffic interrupt feature if the
current station does not. The traffic symbol will flash on
the display when seeking for a station that supports
traffic interrupt. When the traffic interrupt feature is on,
TRAF will appear on the display.
