Using the Radio Data System (RDS)

RDS is a broadcasting service which a growing number of FM stations provide. These FM stations send additional signals along with their regular programme signals. They send their station names, and information about the type of programme such as sport, 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. “PTYI” (Dynamic PTY Indicator) will appear whilst the Dynamic PTY station is received.

Any station which has the same frequency as the one stored in
memory will not be stored.
If 30 stations have already been stored in memory, the scan will
be aborted. If you want to redo the ASPM operation, erase the preset memory.
If no station is stored in memory, “END” will appear for about 4

1 Press the PRESET ( or ) button to check whether the names
are correct.
2 If you find a wrong name whilst receiving the station, wait until the
correct name is displayed and then press the MEMORY/ DIMMER button.

Care of compact discs
Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracking can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the disc surface. Follow the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from your CD collection and player. Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label
side from which signals are read. Do not mark this surface.
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive
moisture.
Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or water on
the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD is dirty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out from the centre, along the radius.
