“P1” flashes for a few seconds.

Select the number (1 – 6) for the preset station you want.

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 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.” The EON indicator lights up while receiving an FM station with the Enhanced Other Networks data. By using these data sent from a station, you can tune into a different station of a different network broadcasting your favorite programme or traffic announcement while listening to another programme or to another source such as tape.

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 favorite programme

• PTY (Programme Type) 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 into 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.

Using Network-Tracking Reception

For KS-FX473R/KS-FX470R:

Press and hold TP RDS (Traffic Programme/ Radio Data System) for more than 1 second. Each time you press and hold the button, Network-Tracking Reception modes change as follows:

Mode 1

For KS-F363R/KS-F360R:

Press RDS (Radio Data System). Each time you press the button, NetworkTracking Reception change as follows:

Mode 1

AF indicator

REG indicator

Mode 1

The AF indicator lights up but the REG indicator does not. Network-Tracking Reception is activated with Regionalization set to “off.” 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.

Mode 2

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

Mode 2 Mode 3

ENGLISH

Mode 3

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

The same programme can be received on different frequencies.

Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency A

ENGLISH

Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency B

Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency C

Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency E

Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency D

Using Standby Reception

Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to your favorite programme (PTY: Programme Type) and Traffic Announcement (TA) from the current source (another FM station, tape, or CD changer (only for KS-FX473R/KS-FX470R).

• Standby Reception will not work if you are listening

to an AM station.

TA Standby Reception

changer: only for KS-FX473R/KS-FX470R) and wish to listen to a TP station, eject the cassette and press TP RDS or TP to enter the TA standby mode. (The TP indicator lights up.)

If a traffic programme starts broadcasting while the T A standby mode is activ e, “TRAFFIC” appears and the playback source changes to the FM band. The volume increases to the preset TA volume level (see page 13) and the traffic programme can be heard.

To deactivate the TA standby mode, press TP RDS or TP.

PTY Standby Reception

When you press PTY while listening to an FM station, the PTY indicator is lit during reception of a PTY station and the PTY standby mode is engaged. The selected PTY name stored on page 11 flashes for 5 seconds.

• When the station being received is not a PTY station, the PTY indicator flashes. Press 4 / ¢ (for KS-FX473R/KS-FX470R) or / (for KSF363R/KS-F360R) to engage the PTY standby mode. “SEARCH” appears on the display, and PTY station search starts. When a PTY station is tuned into, the PTY indicator is lit.
