RDS Messages
ALERT!: This message 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 cassette tape or compact disc is
playing. If the cassette tape or compact disc player is
playing, play will stop for the announcement and resume
when the announcement is finished.
TRAF (Traffic): Press this button to receive traffic
announcements. The traffic announcement brackets will
appear on the display. TRAF will appear on the display
if the current station broadcasts traffic announcements.
If the current station does not broadcast traffic
announcements, the radio will seek to a station that
does. When the radio finds a station that broadcasts
traffic announcements, it will stop. If no station is found,
NO TRAFFIC will appear on the display.
When a traffic announcement comes on the current radio
station or a related network station, you will hear it, even
if the volume is muted or a cassette tape or compact disc
is playing. If the cassette tape or compact disc player was
being used, the tape or compact disc will stay in the
player and resume play at the point where it stopped.
INFO (Information): If the current station has a
message, INFO will appear on the display. 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 see the parts of the message faster than
every three seconds, press this button again. A new group
of words will appear on the display. Once the complete
message has been displayed, INFO will disappear from
the display until another new message is received.
