Traffic Memo (TIM)
This set is equipped with a digital speech
memory, making it possible to automatically
record up to four traffic messages lasting a
maximum of four minutes.
When the radio is switched on and “TP” dis-
played, the system will record all incoming
messages of the tuned in station.
If the priority for traffic announcements is
activated (“TA” shown on the display pan-
el), the set will also record the messages
broadcast by the traffic station of the same
programme network (see also “Receiving
traffic programme stations with RDS-EON”).
If “TIM ON” is briefly displayed when switch-
ing off the radio, the TIM standby mode is
active. In this case the deactivated radio will
be ready to record the traffic information
broadcast for 90 minutes before and after
the programmed TIM times.
What is more, the radio will record the traf-
fic bulletins broadcast by the tuned in sta-
tion for three hours after having turned off
the set.
Depending on the length of the new mes-
sage, the oldest messages are automatically
deleted.
If a message is longer than four minutes,
“OVERFLOW” will be displayed after four
minutes of playback, followed by a beep tone
indicating that the system was unable to
record the message in full.
Warning

Danger of damaging the antenna in a car

You can programme two TIM times (TIMER
1 and TIMER 2).
If you have installed a motor antenna, then
please read the relevant warning note at the
end of this chapter.
For example, TIMER 1 could be the time
when leaving home in the morning, TIMER
2 the time when driving home after work.
The TIM times to be programmed should
correspond to the approximate times of de-
parture. The radio will then record the traffic
information broadcast for 90 minutes before
