CAUTION on Volume Setting
CDs produce very little noise compared with
other sources. If the volume level is adjusted
for the tuner, for example, the speakers may
be damaged by the sudden increase in the
output level. Therefore, lower the volume
before playing a CD and adjust it as required
during playback.
BEFORE USE
* For safety....
• Do not raise the volume level too much, as this
will block outside sounds, making driving
dangerous.
• Stop the car before performing any complicated
operations.
* Temperature inside the car....
If you have parked the car for a long time in hot
or cold weather, wait until the temperature in the
car becomes normal before operating the unit.

What you can do with RDS
RDS OPERATIONS
RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their
regular program signals. For example, the station send their station names, as well as
information about what type of program they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.
By receiving the RDS signals, this unit can do the following:
• Tracing the same programme automatically (Network-tracking Reception)
• Standby Reception of TA (Traffic Announcement) or your favorite programme
• PTY (Program Type) search
• TA (Traffic Announcement) search
• And some other functions
Tracing the same programme automatically (Network-
Tracking Reception)
Whendrivinginan area whereFMreceptionis not good,thetunerbuiltinthisunit automatically
tune in another RDS station, within the same network broadcasting the same programme
with stronger signals. So, you can continue to listen to the same programme in its finest
reception, no matter where you drive. (See illustration.)
Two types of the RDS signals are used to make Network-Tracking Reception work correctly
— PI (Programme Identification) and AF (alternative Frequency) data.
Without receiving these data correctly from the RDS station you are listening to, Network-
Tracking Reception will not operate.
To use Network-Tracking Reception, press and hold TP/RDS (Traffic
Programme/Radio Data System) for more than 1 second. Each time you
press and hold the button, Network-Tracking Reception modes change as
follows:

Automatic selection of the station when using the number
buttons
Usually when you press the number button, the preset station is tuned in.
However, when the preset station is an RDS station, something different will happen. If the
signals from that preset station are not sufficient for good reception, this unit starts searching
anotherstationbroadcastingthesameprogrammeastheoriginalpreset stationisbroadcasting,
then if any station broadcasting the same programme is found, the station will be tuned in.
Changing the display mode while listening to an FM
