Using the standby receptions

TA Standby Reception

TA Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to Traffic Announcement (TA) from any source other than AM and FM-LO. The volume changes to the preset TA volume level if the current level is lower than the preset level (see page 16).

ENGLISH

9OPERATIONS

To activate TA Standby Reception

The TP (Traffic Programme)

indicator either lights up or flashes.

• If the TP indicator lights up, TA Standby Reception is activated.

• If the TP indicator flashes, TA Standby Reception is not yet activated. (This occurs when you are listening to an FM station without the Radio Data System signals required for TA Standby Reception.)

To activate the reception, tune in to another station

providing these signals. The TP indicator will stop flashing and remain lit.

To deactivate the TA Standby Reception

The TP indicator goes off.

PTY Standby Reception

PTY Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to your favorite PTY programme from any

source other than AM and FM-LO.

To activate and select your favorite PTY code for PTY Standby Reception, see page 16.

The PTY indicator either lights up or flashes.

• If the PTY indicator lights up, PTY Standby Reception is activated.

• If the PTY indicator flashes, PTY Standby Reception is not yet activated.

To activate the reception, tune in to another station

providing these signals. The PTY indicator will stop flashing and remain lit.

To deactivate the PTY Standby Reception, select “PTY OFF” for the PTY code (see page 16). The PTY indicator goes off.

Tracing the same programme—

Network-Tracking Reception

When driving in an area where FM reception is not sufficient enough, this unit automatically tunes in to another FM Radio Data System station of the same network, possibly broadcasting the same programme with stronger signals (see the illustration below).

Programme A broadcasting on different frequency areas (01 – 05)

When shipped from the factory, Network-Tracking Reception is activated.

To change the Network-Tracking Reception setting, see “AF-REG” on page 16.

Automatic station selection—

Programme Search

Usually when you select a preset number, the station preset in that number is tuned in. If the signals from the FM Radio Data System preset station are not sufficient for good reception, this unit, using the AF data, tunes in to another frequency possibly broadcasting the same programme as the original preset station is broadcasting.

• The unit takes some time to tune in to another station using programme search.

Basic operations

Turning on the power

• By pressing SRC button on the unit, you can also turn on the power. If the source is ready, playback also starts.

Turning off the power

• If you turn off the power while listening to a track, playback will start from where it had been stopped previously next time you turn on the power.

General

• If you change the source while listening to a disc, playback stops.

Next time you select “CD” as the playback source,

playback will start from where it had been stopped previously.

Tuner operations

Storing stations in memory

• During SSM search...

– All previously stored stations are erased and the

stations are stored anew.

– When SSM is over, the station stored in the lowest

preset number will be automatically tuned in.

• When storing a station manually, the previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

FM Radio Data System operations

• Network-Tracking Reception requires two types of Radio Data System signals—PI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative Frequency) to work correctly. Without receiving these data correctly, Network-Tracking Reception will not operate correctly.

• If a Traffic Announcement is received by TA Standby Reception, the volume level automatically changes to the preset level (TA VOL) if the current level is lower than the preset level.

• When Alternative Frequency Reception is activated (with AF selected), Network-Tracking Reception is also activated automatically.

Disc operations

Caution for DualDisc playback

• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

General

• This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3/WMA formats.

• When a disc is inserted upside down, “PLEASE” and “EJECT” appear alternately on the display. Press 0 to eject the disc.

• MP3 and WMA “tracks” (words “file” and “track” are used interchangeably) are recorded in “folders.”

• This unit can recognize a total of 512 files, 255 folders, and 8 hierarchical levels.

• This unit can play back files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate).

Files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in the

elapsed time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. In particular, this difference becomes noticeable after performing the search function.

• This unit cannot play back the following files:

– MP3 files encoded in MP3i and MP3 PRO format. – MP3 files encoded in an inappropriate format. – MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2. – WMA files encoded in lossless, professional, and

voice format.

– WMA files which are not based upon Windows

constant.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• This unit can only play back files of the same type as those detected first if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, or for the following reasons:

– Discs are dirty or scratched. – Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens

inside the unit. – The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty. – The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the

“Packet Write” method. – There are improper recording conditions (missing

data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched,

warped, etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the

reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.

• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs: – Discs with stickers, labels, or a protective seal stuck

to the surface. – Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an

ink jet printer. Using these discs under high temperature or high

humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to the unit.
