"TA SEEK or TAALARM"→ "PI SOUND or PI MUTE"→ "RETUNE L or RETUNE S"→
"MASK DPI or MASKALL"→ "TAVOL 17" (traffic announcement volume)→ "CLOCK 24 or 12" (Clock format)→ "BEEP ON/OFF" (beep sound on/off)→ EXIT
After selecting the desired menu item, rotate the volume control to select the mode of the selected item.
"TA SEEK or TA ALARM"(search for traffic announcement/traffic announcement alarm)
- TA SEEK mode:
When a newly tuned station does not receive traffic information for 5 seconds, the radio retunes to next station which has a different PI and which broadcasts traffic information.
If, during the chosen retune time (30 seconds for a short retune or 90 seconds for a long retune), the unit can no longer receive the current station which was broadcasting traffic information, it will start to search for the next station that has the same PI.
If no station with the same PI is found after one search cycle, the radio will search for the next station broadcasting traffic announcements.
- TA ALARM mode:
Select this mode to switch off the automatic retune. The radio will bring up a warning message "NO TP, TA" on the LCD display and emit a double beep sound (ALARM). If a newly tuned station does not broadcast any traffic information for 5 seconds, a beep can be heard.
If the unit can no longer receive the current station during the chosen retune time, a beep sound can also be heard.
If a newly tuned station has no RDS signal, the message "PI SEEK" disappears.
Note: TP: Traffic Program.
PI: Program Identification.
"PI SOUND or PI MUTE":
In some regions, there is a possibility of having two different stations with the same frequency but different PI codes.
If "PI SOUND" is selected, radio will switch to the new station with a different PI for a few seconds before switching back to the current station that was broadcast initially. If "PI MUTE" is selected, the radio will not broadcast the new station that is received.
"RETUNE L or RETUNE S"(long/short retune):
This function allows you to set the duration after which the automatic search for traffic information or a station with an identical PI should be carried out.
- RETUNEmatriodearch
will take place after 90 seconds.
- RETUNE S mode: The automatic search will take place after 30 seconds.
"MASK DPI or MASK ALL":
Any alternative frequency (AF) with a different PI or which does not broadcast an RDS signal that is strong enough will normally be masked when the PI is checked while the unit searches for an alternative frequency. The unit will not automatically go to this type of alternative frequency. It is possible that an AF which does not broadcast a strong enough RDS signal is a valid AF, but that the car radio wrongly considers it as a station with a different PI due to interference. For this reason, the unit offers the user an option (MASK DPI) which does not mask the AFs which do not broadcast a strong RDS signal.
- MASK DPI mode:
Only masks the alternative frequencies with a different PI.
- MASK ALL mode:
Masks alternative frequencies with a strong signal that have a different PI or which do not emit a strong enough RDS signal.
"TAVOL 17"(Traffic announcement volume):
This function allows you to define the minimum volume for the traffic announcements. The adjustable range is 0\~45. The defaulted value is 17. Rotate the volume control to adjust the volume of the traffic announcements.
"CLOCK24 or CLOCK(12ck format): This unit is equipped with two types of clock display formats, 24 hours and 12 hours. Rotate the volume control to choose 24 hours format or 12 hours format.
"BEEP ON/OFF" (beep sound on/off):
The car audio device is equipped with confirmation beep tone.
- Beep on: The confirmation beep sound will be heard when any button is pressed.
- Beep off: The confirmation beep sound is
disabled.
Rotate the volume control to select switch on or off the confirmation beep sound
