Traffic Information Receiving (7279M model only)
This model is equipped with traffic information receiving appara-
tus 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 toa 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, itis 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 in-
formation is required, tune in the desired traffic information
Station. When received, the alarm will stop and the SK indi-
cator illuminates. Since the alarm will continue if no signals
from any other traffic stations can be received, release SDK
switch for the reception of 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 ad-
justed to proper level. After the message, the sound volume
returns to the previously adjusted level.
7. If traffic information reception is no longer necessary, re-
lease SDK switch for normal radio reception.
