RDS OPERATIONS
What you can do with RDS
RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to
send an additional signal along with their regular
programme signals. For example, the stations
send their station names, as well as information
about what type of programme they broadcast,
such as sports or music, etc.
Another advantage of RDS function is called
“Enhanced Other Networks.” By using the
Enhanced Other Networks data sent from a
station, you can tune in to a different station of a
different network broadcasting your favorite
programme or traffic announcement while
listening to another programme or to another
source such as CD.
By receiving the RDS data, 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 (Programme Type) search
• Programme search
• And some other functions
Tracing the same programme
automatically (Network-Tracking
Reception)
When driving in an area where FM reception is
not good, the tuner built in this unit automatically
tunes in to another RDS station, 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 the illustration on page 17.)
Two types of the RDS data are used to make
Network-Tracking Reception work correctly
—PI (Programme Identification) and AF
(Alternative Frequency).
Without receiving these data correctly from the
RDS station you are listening to, Network-
Tracking Reception will not operate.
To use Network-Tracking Reception
You can select the different modes of network-
tracking reception to continue listening to the
same programme in its finest reception.
When shipped from the factory, “AF” is selected.
• AF: Network-Tracking Reception is
activated with Regionalization set to
“off.”
With this setting, the unit switches to
another station within the same
network when the receiving signals
from the current station become
weak. (In this mode, the programme
may differ from the one currently
received.)
The AF indicator lights up but the
REG indicator does not.
• AF REG: Network-Tracking Reception is
activated with Regionalization set to
“on.”
With this setting, the unit switches to
another station, within the same
network, broadcasting the same
programme when the receiving
signals from the current station
become weak.
Both the AF indicator and the REG
indicator light up.
• OFF: Network-Tracking Reception is
deactivated.
Neither the AF indicator nor the REG
indicator lights up.
Note:
If a DAB tuner is connected and Alternative Reception
(for DAB services) is activated, Network-Tracking
Reception is also activated (“AF”) automatically. On
the other hand, Network-Tracking Reception cannot
be deactivated without deactivating Alternative
Reception. (See page 35.)

temporarily to Traffic Announcement (TA) from
the current source (another FM station, CD, or
other connected components).
•TA Standby Reception will not work if you are
listening to an AM station.
Press T (TP/PTY) to activate TA Standby
Reception.
7When the current source is FM, the TP
indicator either lights up or flashes.
•If the TP indicator lights up, TA Standby
Reception is activated.
If a station starts broadcasting a traffic
announcement, “TRAFFIC”appears on the
display, and this unit automatically tunes in to
the station. The volume changes to the
preset TA volume level (see page 16) and the
traffic announcement can be heard.
•If the TP indicator flashes, TA Standby
Reception is not yet activated since the
station being received does not provide the
signals used for TA Standby Reception.
To activate TA Standby Reception, you need
to tune in to another station providing these
signals. Press ¢or 4to search
for such a station.
When a station providing these signals is
tuned in, the TP indicator stops flashing and
remains lit. Now TA Standby Reception is
activated.

Playing a CD
Insert a CD into the loading slot.
The unit turns on, draws
the CD and starts
playback automatically.
Note on One-Touch Operation:
When a CD is already in the loading slot, pressing
CD (CD-CH) turns on the unit and starts playback
automatically.
All tracks will be played repeatedly until you stop
playback.
CD OPERATIONS
Note:
When a CD is inserted upside down, “EJECT” and
the CD–in indicator flash on the display and the CD
automatically ejects.
To stop play and eject the CD
Press 0.
CD play stops and the CD automatically ejects
from the loading slot. The source changes to the
previously selected source.
• If you change the source, CD play also stops
(without ejecting the CD).
Next time you select “CD” as the source, CD
play starts from where playback has been
stopped previously.
Notes:
• If the ejected disc is not removed for about
15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted again
into the loading slot to protect it from dust.
(CD play will not start this time.)
• You can eject the CD even when the unit is turned
off.
About mistracking:
Mistracking may result from driving on extremely
rough roads. This does not damage the unit and
the disc, but will be annoying.
We recommend that you stop disc play while
driving on such rough roads.
