Traffic news monitoring with the TP function is only possible if the trafficnews station is available.

While traffic news monitoring is switched on and enabled, TP is displayed⇒ Fig. 12.
In radio mode, the selected station must support the TP function. If a sta-tion selected via the station buttons or manual tuning does not support theTP function, traffic news monitoring is not possible (display: NO TP).
If the currently selected traffic news station can no longer be received,NO TP is also displayed and you will need to start a manual station searchusing the arrow buttons ⇒ Fig. 1
