RDS, if activated, allows you to continue
listening to the same station by automatically
retuning to alternative frequencies. However,
in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS
station may not be assured throughout the
entire country as radio stations do not cover
100% of the territory. This explains the loss of
reception of the station during a journey.
Playing TA messages
The TA (Traffic Announcement) function
gives priority to TA alert messages.
To operate, this function needs good
reception of a radio station that carries
this type of message. When a
traffic
report is transmitted, the current audio
source (Radio, CD, etc.) is interrupted
automatically to play the TA message.
Normal play of the media previously
playing is resumed at the end of the
message.
Press the TA button to activate or
deactivate traffic messages.
