TA FUNCTION
(TRAFFIC
ANNOUNCEMENT)
This function can be switched on on-
ly in Radio mode in the FM waveband.
When listening to the CD source,
the CD changer (where fitted) or
when the navigation system is on and
the TA button (4) is pressed, the ra-
dio will switch to the FM waveband in
background and activate the TA func-
tion. This will not change the sound
source and the message “TA” will ap-
pear on the display.
When the TA function is on, you can
listen to traffic announcements even
when the CD player or CD changer
(where fitted) is on or in navigation
mode. The system will automatically
switch to the station broadcasting the
traffic announcement. At the end of
the announcement, the sound naviga-
tion system will automatically return
to the previous source.
Press the TA button (4) to switch
the TA function off.IMPORTANT In Radio mode, with
the TA function on, a beep will be
heard if you leave the area where the
station broadcasting traffic announce-
ments can be received. In this case, an
automatic TP (Traffic Program) search
will be started.
Interrupting traffic
announcements
When the TA function is on, press
either TA (4) or MEN (10) or change
station to interrupt the traffic an-
nouncement.TMC FUNCTION
(TRAFFIC MESSAGE
CHANNEL)
The TMC function is used to receive
traffic information which is then
analysed by the sound/navigation sys-
tem in order to “guide” the driver to
the required preset destination.
Since only some stations are enabled
to provide the TMC function, it is pos-
sible that traffic information in certain
areas cannot be received.
When the “Dynamic travel guide”
function is on (see “Dynamic travel
guide” in chapter “Navigation”), the
sound/navigation system will tune au-
tomatically to a TMC station.

The “TMC” message will appear in
the lower row of the display when a
TMC station is selected.
Up to six TMC stations can be
stored in the FMC storage waveband

TMC stations (TMC-Store)” on next
pages):
through this function it is therefore
possible to store the six strongest sta-
tions broadcasting in the area that you
are travelling in.
