sound and tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab
moistened with commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or
isopropyl alcohol.

unit which contains high voltages.
● After long use, the deck’s heads and capstans may be-
come magnetised, causing poor sound. Demagenetise
these parts once every 30 hours of playing/recording time
by using a commercial tape head demagnetiser. Read the
demagnetiser’s instructions carefully before use.
● Clean the dust or stain on the CD pickup lens using a com-
mercial cleaning disc (brush type).

signals. They send their station names, and information about the type of programme such as sports or music, etc.
When tuned to an RDS station, "RDS" and the station name will be displayed.
"TP" (Traffic Programme) will appear on the display when the received broadcast carries traffic information, and "TA" (Traffic Announcement) will appear whilst a traffic
information is on air.
"EON" will appear whilst the EON (Enhanced Other Networks information) data is
broadcast.
"PTYI" (Dynamic PTY Indicator) will appear whilst the Dynamic PTY station is
received.
"RT" (Radio Text) will appear whilst the unit receives the Radio text data.
"CT" (Clock Time) will appear whilst the unit receives the RDS CT data.
You can control the RDS by using the buttons on the main unit only.
