roughness
around the
edges. If such discs
are used, the player
may not work or the sound
may skip. Use a ball-point pen
or the like to remove any
roughness from the edge of the disc.
• Never stick labels on the surface of the
compact disc or mark the surface with a pencil
or pen.
• Never play a compact disc with any cellophane
tape or other glue on it or with peeling off
marks. If you try to play such a compact disc,
you may not be able to remove it from the CD
player or it may damage the CD player.
Ball-point pen
Roughness

•To remove a compact disc from its storage
case, press down on the center of the case
and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the
edges.
• Do not use commercially available CD
protection sheets or discs equipped with
stabilizers, etc. These may damage the disc or
break the internal mechanism.
Storage
• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight
or any heat source.
• Do not expose compact discs to excess
humidity or dust.
• Do not expose compact discs to direct heat
from heaters.
Cleaning
•To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft
cloth and wipe in a straight line from the center
of the compact disc to the circumference.
• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially
available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner
to clean compact discs.
• After using special compact disc cleaner, let

RDS (Radio Data System)
This unit has a built-in RDS decoder system that
supports broadcast stations transmitting RDS
data.
This system can display the name of the
broadcast station being received (PS), and can
automatically switch to the broadcast station
with the best reception as you move over long
distances (AF switching).
If a traffic announcement or programme type is
broadcasted from an RDS station, this
broadcast is received no matter what mode you
are in.
Also, if EON information is received, this
information enables automatic switching of other
preset stations on the same network and
interruption of the station being received with
traffic information from other stations (TP). This
function is not available in some areas.
When using the RDS function, always set the
radio to the FM mode.
• AF : Alternative Frequency
• PS : Programme Service Name
• PTY : Programme Type
• EON : Enhanced Other Network
• TP : Traffic Programme
• PI : Programme Identification
•TA : Traffic Announcement
∗ RDS interrupt does not function during AM
radio reception.
∗ When this unit receives the RDS signal,
and can read PS data, PS appears in the
display.
AF function
The AF function switches to a different
frequency on the same network in order to
maintain optimum reception.
• The factory default setting is “ON”.
• When the AF function is ON, “AF” blinks in the

To switch the AF function ON, repeat steps 1
and 2.
∗ If the reception of the current broadcast
station deteriorates, “SEARCH” appears in
the display, and the radio searches for the
same programme on another frequency.
■ AF function between RDS and DAB
When the same programme is broadcasted by
both RDS and DAB, and this function is ON, this
unit automatically switches to receive the
broadcast with the better reception.
• This function only operates when the DAH923
or DAH913 DAB unit (Optional) is connected.
• This factory default setting is “ON”.

priority regardless of the function mode so you
can listen to it. Traffic programme (TP) automatic
tuning is also possible.
