About RDS Features
What is RDS?
• Operate the unit only on the power sources
specified in “Specifications.”
• Use the unit within a temperature range of 0°C
to 40°C. If it is used in temperatures higher
than this range, the display may gradually turn
black. If it is used in temperatures lower than
this range, the display may change very slowly.
(These irregularities will disappear and there
will be no damage to the unit when the unit is
used in the recommended temperature range
again.)
• Avoid exposure to temperature extremes,
direct sunlight, moisture, sand, dust or
mechanical shock. Never leave in a car parked
in the sun.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
unit, disconnect the micro USB cable, and have
the unit checked by a qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
• Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers,
keep personal credit cards using magnetic
coding or spring-wound watches away from
the unit to prevent possible damage from the
magnetism.
• To clean the casing, use a soft dry cloth. Do not
use any type of solvent, such as alcohol or
benzine, which may damage the finish.
• Do not operate the unit with wet hands since it
may cause a short circuit.
• When you do not use the unit for a long time,
charge the battery every 6 months.
• Make sure not to splash water on the unit. This
unit is not waterproof.
• Under certain circumstances, especially when
the air is very dry, it is not uncommon to
experience a discharge of static electricity, or
shock, when your body comes in contact with
another object, in this case the ear buds
touching your ear(s). The energy from this
natural discharge is extremely small and is not
emitted by your product but rather a natural
environmental occurrence.
Messages
Disposal of waste batteries and
electrical and electronic
equipment (applicable in the
European Union and other
European countries with
separate collection systems)
This symbol on the product, the battery or on
the packaging indicates that the product and the
battery shall not be treated as household waste.
On certain batteries this symbol might be used
in combination with a chemical symbol. The
chemical symbols for mercury (Hg) or lead (Pb)
are added if the battery contains more than
0.0005% mercury or 0.004% lead. By ensuring
these products and batteries are disposed of
correctly, you will help prevent potentially
negative consequences for the environment and
human health which could otherwise be caused
by inappropriate waste handling. The recycling
of the materials will help to conserve natural
resources.
In case of products that for safety, performance
or data integrity reasons require a permanent
connection with an incorporated battery, this
battery should be replaced by qualified service
staff only. To ensure that the battery and the
electrical and electronic equipment will be
treated properly, hand over these products at
end-of-life to the applicable collection point for
the recycling of electrical and electronic
equipment. For all other batteries, please view
the section on how to remove the battery from
the product safely. Hand the battery over to the
applicable collection point for the recycling of
waste batteries. For more detailed information
about recycling of this product or battery, please
contact your local Civic Office, your household
waste disposal service or the shop where you
purchased the product or battery.
• The RDS functions will not be activated if the
FM station being received is not transmitting
RDS data. They may also not work properly in
areas where RDS transmissions are in the
experimental stage.
