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.

You can control the RDS by using the buttons on the main unit only.

Notes:

If the same station is broadcasting on different f requencies, the

strongest frequency will be stored in memory. Any station which has the same frequency as one stored in mem-

ory will not be stored. If 40 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 stations have been stored in memory, "END" will appear for

If any of the following events occur, it does not mean that the unit is faul t y :

"PS", "NO PS" and a station name appear alternately, and the

unit does not operate properly. If a particular station is not broadcast ing properly or a station is

conducting tests, the RD S reception function may not work properly. When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too weak,

information like the station name may not be displayed. "NO PS", "NO PTY" or "NO RT" will flash for about 5 seconds,

" Before transporting the unit

Remove all CDs from the unit. Make sure there is no CD in the disc tray. Then, set the unit to the power stand-by mode. Carrying the unit with discs left inside can damage the unit.

" Care of compact discs

Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracking can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the dis c surface. Follow the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from yo ur 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 dir ty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out from the centre, along the radius.

NO YES

Correct

Maintenance

" Cleaning the tape-handling parts

Dirty heads, capstans or pinch rollers can cause poor sound and

tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol. When cleaning the heads, pinch rollers, etc., unplug the unit

which contains high voltages.

Pinch roller Erase head

Capstan Recording/Playback head

After long use, the deck's heads and capstans may become mag-

netised, causing poor sound. Demagnetise these parts once every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial tape head demagnetiser. Read the demagnetiser's instruct ions carefully before use.

" Cleaning the cabinet

Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a dilut ed soap solution, then with a dry cloth.

Caution:

Do not use chemicals for cleaning (petrol, paint thinner, etc.). It

may damage the cabinet finish. Do not apply oil to the insi de of the unit. It may cause malfunc-

tions.
