RDS Messages
ALERT!: Alert warns of local or national emergencies.
When an alert announcement comes on the current
radio station, ALERT! will appear on the display. You will
hear the announcement, even
if the volume is muted
or a cassette tape or compact disc is playing. If a
cassette tape or compact disc is being used, play will
stop during the announcement. You will not be able
to turn off alert announcements.
ALERT! will not be affected by tests of the emergency
broadcast system. This feature is not supported by
all RDS stations.
INFO (Information):
If the current station has a
message, INFO will appear on the display. Press this
button to see the message. The message may display
the artist and song title, call in phone numbers, etc.
If the whole message is not displayed, parts of it
will appear every three seconds. To scroll through the
message at your own speed, press the INFO button
repeatedly.
A new group of words will appear on
the display with each press. Once the complete
message has been displayed, INFO will disappear from
the display until another new message is received.
The old message can be displayed by pressing
the INFO button until a new message is received or
a different station is tuned to.
TRAF (Traffic): TRAF will appear on the display
if
the tuned station broadcasts traffic announcements.

around TRAF and when a traffic announcement comes
on the tuned radio station you will hear it.
If the current tuned station does not broadcast traffic
announcements, press this button and the radio
will seek to a station that does. When the radio finds a
station that broadcasts traffic announcements, it will
stop. Brackets will be displayed around TRAF and when
a traffic announcement comes on the tuned radio
station you will hear it.
If no station is found, NO TRAF
will appear on the display.
Traffic Interrupt Feature: Your radio can interrupt the
play of a cassette,
CD, or XMTM station. Press the
TRAF button. The radio will seek to a station that
broadcasts traffic announcements. When the radio

traffic announcement is over, the radio
will resume play
of the cassette,
CD, or XMTM station. If no station is
