If the radio is already set to the FM band
and tuned to a TP or EON-TP station,
even when listening to the cassette or the
multi-play CD player, when the button (6)
is pushed ("TA" [35] is shown on the dis-
play), traffic report waiting will begin.
When a traffic report begins, the system
will switch from cassette or CD to the traf-
fic report.
BSA function
+ While button [6] is on, ("TA" [35] is
shown on the display) and AF function is
off, and you are listening to either the
cassette or multi-play CD player, should
the TP station become weak, the radio
will start BSA (Best TP Station Auto
Search) 10 seconds after "TP" [34] disap-
pears from the diplay. The tuner will auto-
matically tune to the strongest TP station
in the area, and will stand by for a traffic
bulletin. BSA does not work when the AF
function is selected, so turn the AF func-
tion off by pressing button [7] when you
want to use BSA.
TP Alarm Function

{34] disappears from the display, which
occurs if the signal from the TP station
becomes weak, an alarm sounds for 10
seconds to tell you to tune to another TP
station.
* Storing cassettes in areas directly ex-
posed to sunlight or high temperatures
can distort them and subsequently inter-
fere with tape transport. (Fig. 6)
Fig. 6
* Store unused tapes in a tape case where
there is no danger of them becoming
loose or being exposed to dust.
Cleaning the Head
lf the heads become dirty, the sound quality
will deteriorate and there will be sound
dropouts and other imperfections in perfor-
mance. in this case, the head must be
cleaned.
* When using a cleaning tape, play it once
on one side for normal cleaning.
Excessive use of the cleaning tape will in-
crease head wear.
Be sure to read the cleaning tape instruc-
tions before use.

Non-RDS stations such as those using the
Swedish MBS system may be tuned in as
RDS stations, but this is due to both sys-
tems using the same 57 kHz subcarrier fre-
quency and is not a malfunction of the unit.
Tuning Steps
The tuning step is normally 50 kHz during
seek tuning on an FM band. However this
tuning step changes to 100 kHz when the
set is in AF or TP mode. In some countries
it may be desired to set a tuning step of
50 kHz in AF mode by holding down the
button @ in Bank [4] while turning the igni-
tion key from OFF to ON.
¢ During manual tuning, the step does not
change; it remains fixed at 50 kHz.
* The tuning step will return to 100 kHz if
the batteries supply is temporarily discon-
nected or the clear button is pressed.
* In AF mode, only those stations being
broadcast at 100 kHz steps are subject to
AF reception (CENELEC STANDARD).
