RDS OPERATIONS

What you can do with RDS

RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular programme signals. For example, the stations send

ENGLISH

their station names, as well as information about what type of programme they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc. Another advantage of RDS function is called “Enhanced Other Networks.” By using the Enhanced Other Networks data sent from a station, you can tune in to a different station of a different network broadcasting your favourite programme or traffic announcement while listening to another programme or to another source such as CD.

By receiving the RDS data, this unit can do the following:

• Tracing the same programme automatically (Network-Tracking Reception)

• Standby Reception of TA (Traffic Announcement) or your favourite programme

• PTY (Programme T ype) search

• Programme search

• And some other functions

Tracing the same programme automatically (Network-Tracking Reception)

When driving in an area where FM reception is not good, the tuner built in this unit automatically tunes in to another RDS station, broadcasting the same programme with stronger signals. So, you can continue to listen to the same programme in its finest reception, no matter where you drive. (See the illustration on the next page.) Two types of the RDS data are used to make Network-Tracking Reception work correctly — PI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative Frequency). Without receiving these data correctly from the RDS station you are listening to, Network-Tracking Reception will not operate.

To use Network-Tracking Reception

You can select the different modes of networktracking reception to continue listening to the same programme in its finest reception. When shipped from the factory, “AF” is selected.

• AF: Network-Tracking Reception is activated with Regionalization set to “off.” With this setting, the unit switches to another station within the same network when the receiving signals from the current station become weak. (In this mode, the programme may differ from the one currently received.) The AF indicator lights up but the REG indicator does not.

• AF REG: Network-Tracking Reception is activated with Regionalization set to “on.” With this setting, the unit switches to another station, within the same network, broadcasting the same programme when the receiving signals from the current station become weak. Both the AF indicator and the REG indicator light up.

• OFF: Network-Tracking Reception is deactivated. Neither the AF indicator nor the REG indicator lights up.

TP/PTY

Press TP/PTY to activate TA Standby Reception. 7 When the current source is FM, the TP indicator

either lights up or flashes.

• If the TP indicator lights up, TA Standby Reception is activated. If a station starts broadcasting a traffic announcement, “TRAFFIC” appears on the display, and this unit automatically tunes in to the station. The volume changes to the preset TA volume level (see page 15) and the traffic announcement can be heard.

• If the TP indicator flashes, TA Standby Reception is not yet activated since the station being received does not provide the signals used for TA Standby Reception. To activate TA Standby Reception, you need to tune in to another station providing these signals. Press ¢ or 4 to search for such a station. When a station providing these signals is tuned in, the TP indicator stops flashing and remains lit. Now TA Standby Reception is activated.

7 When the current source is other than FM,

the TP indicator lights up. If a station starts broadcasting a traffic announcement, “TRAFFIC” appears on the display, and this unit automatically changes the source and tunes in to the station.

To deactivate the TA Standby Reception, press TP/PTY again.

MAINTENANCE

Handling CDs

This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs and CD-Rs.

• Other discs cannot be played back.

How to handle CDs

When removing a CD from its case, press down the center holder of the case and lift the CD out, holding it by the edges.

• Always hold the CD by the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.

When storing a CD into its case, gently insert the CD around the center holder (with the printed surface facing up).

• Make sure to store CDs into the cases after use.

To keep CDs clean

A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a CD does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

To play new CDs

New CDs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such a CD is used, this unit may reject the CD. To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.

About mistracking:

Mistracking may result from driving on extremely rough roads. This does not damage the unit and the CD, but will be annoying. We recommend that you stop CD play while driving on such rough roads.

Center holder

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD player in the following cases:

• After starting the heater in the car.

• If it becomes very humid inside the car. Should this occur, the CD player may malfunction. In this case, eject the CD and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.

When playing a CD-R (Recordable)

You can play back your original CD-Rs on this receiver.

• Before playing back CD-Rs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

• Some CD-Rs recorded on CD recorders may not be played back on this receiver because of their disc characteristics, and of the following reasons: – Discs are dirty or scratched. – Moisture condensation occurs on the lens

inside the unit.

– The pickup lens inside the CD player is dirty.

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs.

• CD-RWs (Rewritable) cannot be played back on this receiver.

• Do not use CD-Rs with stickers or sticking labels on the surface. They may cause malfunctions.

CAUTIONS:

• Do not insert 8 cm CDs (single CDs) into the loading slot. (Such CDs cannot be ejected.)

• Do not insert any CD of unusual shape — like a heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a malfunction.

• Do not expose CDs to direct sunlight or any heat source or place them in a place subject to high temperature and humidity. Do not leave them in a car.

• Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean CDs.
