OPERATION
Traffic Information Receiving
This model is equipped with traffic information receiving apparatus to be used in West
Germany where the traffic information is broadcast in FM. The following is how to use
this unit to receive traffic information broadcasting.
1. Select FM position.
2. Depress the SDK switch @ and tune to a station. If the station is a traffic information
station, the SK indicator @ will glow and show the reception of a broadcast from a
traffic information station.
NOTE: SK Indicator
When SK signal is received irrespective of the SDK position, the SK indicator @ will
illuminate.
3. In the SDK mode, stations other than traffic information stations are muted and cut
out. Therefore, it is easy to select a traffic information station.
4. As the signal of the tuned traffic information station becomes weak, the SK indicator
@® will extinguish, then after the lapse of 30 seconds, a rhythmical alarm will sound to
urge retuning to another stronger station. If the reception of further traffic information
is required, tune in the desired traffic information station. When received, the alarm
will stop and the SK indicator @ illuminates. Since the alarm will continue if no signals
from any other traffic stations can be received, release SDK switch @ to stop the
alarm and receive normal broadcasting.
5. When the unit is playing a cassette tape with the SDK switch @ pushed in and tuned
to a traffic information station, the tape play is interrupted and changed to FM radio if
the pre-tuned station begins a traffic information message. When the message is
over, the unit reverts to tape play automatically.
6. Even if the VOLume control @ is set to the minimum position, the volume of the traffic
information will be automatically adjusted to proper level. After the message, the
sound volume returns to the previously adjusted level.
7. If traffic information reception is no longer necessary, release SDK switch @ for normal
radio reception.
NOTE: This unit has a special volume control on the bottom of the unit for adjusting the
volume level for SDK reception and the alarm which will sound when there is no
SK signal in the SDK mode. Set the VOLume control @ to the minimum level
position, and adjust the special volume control on the bottom of the unit to your
desired level with a screwdriver.
