By receiving the RDS data, this unit can do the
following:
• Programme Type (PTY) Search (see the
following)
• TA (Traffic Announcement) and PTY
Standby Receptions (see pages 9 and 15)
• Tracing the same programme automatically
—Network-Tracking Reception (see page 10)
• Programme Search (see page 15)
Searching for your favorite
FM RDS programme
You can tune in to a station broadcasting your

DAB tuner operations
What is DAB system?
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) can deliver
digital quality sound without any annoying
interference and signal distortion. Furthermore,
it can carry text, pictures, and data. When
transmitting, DAB combines several
programmes (called “services”) to form one
“ensemble.” In addition, each “service”—called
“primary service”—can also be divided into its
components (called “secondary service”). A
typical ensemble has six or more programmes
(services) broadcast at the same time.
By connecting the DAB tuner, this unit can do
the following:
• Tracing the same programme automatically
—Alternative Frequency Reception (see
“DAB AF” on page 16).
It is recommended to use DAB tuner
KT-DB1000 with your unit. If you have
another DAB tuner, consult your JVC
IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer.
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied for
your DAB tuner.
