Using the Radio Data

System (RDS)

(European model only)

What is the Radio Data System?

Radio Data System (RDS) is a broadcasting service that allows radio stations to send additional information along with the regular program signal.

This tuner offers convenient RDS features like station name. RDS is available only on FM stations.*

* Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do they provide the same types of services. If you are not familiar with the RDS system, check with your local radio stations for details on RDS services in your area.

Note

RDS may not work properly if the station you are tuned in is not transmitting the RDS signal properly or if the signal is weak.

Receiving RDS broadcasts

Simply select a station from FM band.

When you tune in a station that provides

RDS services, the station name appears in the display.

To check the RDS information

While receiving an RDS station, press DISPLAY repeatedly.

RDS information appears on the display.

Ajusting the sound effect

You can adjust the sound by raising or lowering the level of specific frequency band.

Turn LOW jog to adjust the level of low frequency band.

Turn MID jog to adjust the level of medium frequency band.

Turn HIGH jog to adjust the level of high frequency band.

The setting is entered automatically.

Singing along

You can sing along with any audio source that play back on this system.

Precautions

Discs that this system CAN play

• AUDIO CD

• CD-R/CD-RW (audio data/MP3 files)

Discs that this system CANNOT play

• CD-ROM

• CD-R/CD-RW other than those recorded in music CD format or MP3 format conforming to ISO9660 Level 1/Level 2, Joliet (expansion format)

• CD-R/CD-RW recorded in multisession that have not ended by “closing the session”

• CD-R/CD-RW of poor recording quality,

CD-R/CD-RW that have scratches or are dirty, or CD-R/CD-RW recorded with an incompatible recording device

• CD-R/CD-RW which is finalized incorrectly

• Disc containing files other than MPEG 1

Audio Layer-3 (MP3) files

• Discs of non-standard shape (for example, heart, square, star)

• Discs that have adhesive tape, paper, or sticker attached to them

• Rental or used discs with attached seals where the glue extends beyond the seal

• Discs that have labels printed using ink that feels tacky when touched

Notes on discs

• Before playing, wipe the disc with a cleaning cloth from the center out to the edge.

• Do not clean discs with solvents, such as benzine, thinner, or commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray intended for vinyl

LPs.

• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight.

On safety

• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall socket, even if the unit itself has been turned off.

• Completely disconnect the power cord (mains lead) from the wall socket (mains) if it is not going to be used for an extended period of time. When unplugging the unit, always grip the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

• Should any solid object or liquid get into the system, unplug the system, and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it again.

• The AC power cord can be changed only by a qualified service facility.

On placement

• Do not place the system in an inclined position or in locations that are extremely hot, cold, dusty, dirty, or humid or lacking adequate ventilation, or subject to vibration, direct sunlight or a bright light.

• Be careful when placing the unit or speakers on surfaces that have been specially treated

(for example, with wax, oil, polish) as staining or discoloration of the surface may result.

• If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm location or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit, and cause the system to malfunction. In this situation, remove the disc, and leave the system turned on for about an hour until the moisture evaporates.

On heat buildup

• Heat buildup on the unit during operation is normal and is not a cause for alarm.

• Do not touch the cabinet if it has been used continuously at a high volume because the cabinet may have become hot.

• Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.

On the speaker system

This speaker system is not magnetically shielded, and the picture on nearby TV sets may become magnetically distorted. In this situation, turn off the TV, wait 15 to 30 minutes, and turn it back on. If there is no improvement, move the speakers far away from the TV.

Cleaning the cabinet

Clean this system with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution.

Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as thinner, benzine, or alcohol.

Notes on remove/insert the SYSTEM

CONTROL cord from/to the unit

To prevent the system malfunction or breakdown, do the following procedures:

– Before connecting the power cord (on the subwoofer) to the wall outlet, be sure to connect the SYSTEM CONTROL cord to the unit and secure with screws of the plug.

– Before removing the SYSTEM CONTROL cord from the unit, be sure to disconnect the power cord (on the subwoofer) from the wall outlet.
