OPERATION
(7516M/7516MM model only)
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 8 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 switch position, the SK indicator
will illuminate.
3. Inthe 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 25 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 the SDK switch for reception of
normal broadcasting.
5. When the unit is playing a tape or a CD with the SDK switch pushed in and tuned to a
traffic information station, the tape or CD 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 or CD 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 the level preset by the special volume
control on the left side of the unit. After the message, the sound volume returns to
the previously adjusted level.
7. If traffic information reception is no longer necessary, release the SDK switch for
normal radio reception.
NOTE:
When the SDK switch is pressed and there is no SK signal, ALARM will sound after the
lapse of 25 seconds. Press the SDK switch again to stop it.
NOTE:
This unit has a special volume control on the left side 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 contro! @ to the minimum level position, and adjust the
special volume control on the left side of the unit to your desired level with a screwdriver.
