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 19.)

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 received 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 received 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.

AF indicator REG indicator AF REG 92.5 EQ ROCK CLASSIC TIME F M I USER JAZZ

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 46.)

1 Press and hold SEL (select) for more than 2 seconds so that one of the PSM items appears on the display. (PSM: see pages 31 and 32.)

2 Select "AF-REG" (alternative frequency/regionalization reception) if not shown on the display.

3 Select the desired mode—"AF," "AF REG," or "OFF."

SEL

4 Finish the setting.

Using TA Standby Reception

TA Standby Reception allows the unit to switch 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.

■When 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 18) 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 ◀◀◀ ∨ to 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.

■When the current source is other than FM, the TP indicator lights up.

If a station starts broadcasting a traffic announcement, "TRAFFIC" appears on the display, and this unit automatically changes the source and tunes in to the station.

To deactivate the TA Standby Reception, press T TP/PTY again. The TP indicator disappears.

Using PTY Standby Reception

PTY Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to your favorite programme (PTY: Programme Type) from the current source (another FM station, CD, or other connected components).

- PTY Standby Reception will not work if you are listening to an AM station.

You can select your favorite programme type for PTY Standby Reception.

When shipped from the factory, PTY Standby Reception is turned off. ("OFF" is selected for PTY Standby Reception.)

1 Press and hold SEL (select) for more than 2 seconds so that one of the PSM items appears on the display. (PSM: see pages 31 and 32.)

2 Select "PTY STBY" (standby) if not shown on the display.

3 Select one of the twenty-nine PTY codes. (See page 19.)

Selected code name appears on the display and is stored into memory.

4 Finish the setting.

■When the current source is FM, the PTY indicator either lights up or flashes.

- If the PTY indicator lights up, PTY Standby Reception is activated. If a station starts broadcasting the selected PTY programme, this unit automatically tunes in to the station. - If the PTY indicator flashes, PTY Standby Reception is not yet activated since the station being received does not provide the signals used for PTY Standby Reception. To activate PTY Standby Reception, you need to tune in to another station providing these signals. Press ▶▶▶ ▲ or ◀◀◀ ▼ to search for such a station. When a station providing these signals is tuned in, the PTY indicator stops flashing and remains lit. Now PTY Standby Reception is activated.

■When the current source is other than FM, the PTY indicator lights up.

If a station starts broadcasting the selected PTY programme, this unit automatically changes the source and tunes in to the station.

To deactivate the PTY Standby Reception, select "OFF" in step 3 on the left column. The PTY indicator disappears.

Searching your favorite programme

You can search any one of the PTY codes. In addition, you can store your 6 favorite programme types in the number buttons. When shipped from the factory, the following 6 programme types have been stored in the number buttons (1 to 6).

What are MP3/WMA?

MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group (or MPEG) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10 (128 Kbps ^* ).

* Bit rate is the average number of bits that one second of audio data will consume. The unit used is Kbps. To get a better audio quality, choose a higher bit rate. The most popular bit rate for encoding is 128 Kbps.

WMA (Windows Media® Audio) is the digital audio compression format developed by Microsoft Corporation.

- For details information about the MP3/WMA discs, refer to “A Guide to MP3/WMA” (separate volume).

Compatible with ID3 Tag

Extra information data such as album title, performer name, song title, recording year, music genre and a brief comment can be stored within an MP3/WMA file.

This unit can show both ID3v1 (Version 1) and ID3v2 (Version 2) tags on the display. (See page 26.)

• Some characters cannot be shown correctly.
• If both ID3v1 and ID3v2 are recorded on a disc, ID3v2 information will be shown.

How are MP3/WMA files recorded and played back?

MP3/WMA "files (tracks)" can be recorded in "folders"—in PC terminology.

During recording, the files and folders can be arranged in a way similar to arranging files and folders of computer data.

"Root" is similar to the root of a tree. Every file and folder can be linked to and be accessed from the root.

The illustration below shows an example of how MP3/WMA files are recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW, how they are played back, and how they are searched for on this unit.

Notes:

• This unit cannot read or play an MP3 file without the extension code <.mp3> and a WMA track without the extension code <.wma> .
• This unit is not compatible with MP3 files encoded with Layer 1 and Layer 2 formats.
• This unit is not compatible with WMA files which are not based upon Windows Media ^ Audio.
• This unit is not compatible with Playlist**.

**A playlist is a simple text file, used on a PC, which enables users to make their own playback order without physically rearranging the files.

We recommend that you use DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) tuner KT-DB1500 or KT-DB1000 with your unit.

If you have another DAB tuner, consult your JVC IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer.

- Refer also to the Instructions supplied for your DAB tuner.

What is DAB system?

DAB is one of the digital radio broadcasting systems available today. It can deliver CD quality sound without any annoying interference and signal distortion.

Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures, and data.

In contrast to FM broadcast, where each programme is transmitted on its own frequency, DAB combines several programmes (called “services”) to form one “ensemble.”

In addition, each "service"—called "primary service"—can also be divided into its components (called "secondary service").

With the DAB tuner connected with this unit, you can enjoy these DAB services.

Note:

When reception switches between DAB and FM, the listening volume level may increase or decrease inconveniently. This change in the volume level results from unequal audio injection levels at broadcaster site, but not from the malfunction of this unit.

To prevent this inconvenience, you can adjust the DAB volume level. (See "To adjust the DAB volume level" on page 46.)

Tuning in to an ensemble and one of the services

A typical ensemble has 6 or more programmes (services) broadcast at the same time. After tuning in to an ensemble, you can select a service you want to listen to.

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.

Handling discs

This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs, CD-Rs (Recordable), CD-RWs (Rewritable), and CD Texts.

- This unit is also compatible with MP3 and WMA discs.

How to handle discs

When removing a disc

from its case, press down the center holder of the case and lift the disc out, holding it by the edges.

Center holder

• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.

When storing a disc into its case, gently insert the disc around the center holder (with the printed surface facing up).

- Make sure to store discs into the cases after use.

To keep discs clean

A dirty disc may not be played correctly. If a disc does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

To play new discs

New discs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such a disc is used, this unit may reject the disc.

To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD player in the following cases:

• After starting the heater in the car.
- If it becomes very humid inside the car.

Should this occur, the CD player may malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.

When playing a CD-R or CD-RW

Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

• Use only "finalized" CD-Rs or CD-RWs.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, and for the following reasons:

– Discs are dirty or scratched.
- Moisture condensation on the lens inside the unit.
- The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.
• CD-Rs or CD-RWs are susceptible to high temperatures or high humidity, so do not leave them inside your car.

• Do not use following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:

• Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal stuck to the surface.
  – Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an ink jet printer.

Using these discs under high temperatures or high humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to discs. For example,

• Stickers or labels may shrink and warp a disc.
• Stickers or labels may be peeled off so discs cannot be ejected.

– Print on discs may get sticky.

Read instructions or cautions about labels and printable discs carefully.

CAUTIONS:

• Do not insert 8 cm discs (single CDs) into the loading slot. (Such discs cannot be ejected.)
• Do not insert any disc of unusual shape—like a heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a malfunction.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any heat source or place them in a place subject to high temperature and humidity. Do not leave them in a car.
• Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.

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 19.)

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 received 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 received 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.

1 Press and hold SEL (select) for more than 2 seconds so that one of the PSM items appears on the display. (PSM: see pages 31 and 32.)

2 Select "AF-REG" (alternative frequency/regionalization reception) if not shown on the display.

3 Select the desired mode—"AF," "AF REG," or "OFF."

4 Finish the setting.

Using TA Standby Reception

TA Standby Reception allows the unit to switch 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.

■When 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 18) 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 ◀◀ ▼ to 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.

■When the current source is other than FM, the TP indicator lights up.

If a station starts broadcasting a traffic announcement, "TRAFFIC" appears on the display, and this unit automatically changes the source and tunes in to the station.

To deactivate the TA Standby Reception, press T TP/PTY again. The TP indicator disappears.

Using PTY Standby Reception

PTY Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to your favorite programme (PTY: Programme Type) from the current source (another FM station, CD, or other connected components).

- PTY Standby Reception will not work if you are listening to an AM station.

You can select your favorite programme type for PTY Standby Reception.

When shipped from the factory, PTY Standby Reception is turned off. ("OFF" is selected for PTY Standby Reception.)

1 Press and hold SEL (select) for more than 2 seconds so that one of the PSM items appears on the display. (PSM: see pages 31 and 32.)

2 Select "PTY STBY" (standby) if not shown on the display.

3 Select one of the twenty-nine PTY codes. (See page 19.)

Selected code name appears on the display and is stored into memory.

4 Finish the setting.

■When the current source is FM, the PTY indicator either lights up or flashes.

- If the PTY indicator lights up, PTY Standby Reception is activated. If a station starts broadcasting the selected PTY programme, this unit automatically tunes in to the station. - If the PTY indicator flashes, PTY Standby Reception is not yet activated since the station being received does not provide the signals used for PTY Standby Reception. To activate PTY Standby Reception, you need to tune in to another station providing these signals. Press ▶▶▶ ▲ or ◀◀◀ ▼ to search for such a station. When a station providing these signals is tuned in, the PTY indicator stops flashing and remains lit. Now PTY Standby Reception is activated.

■When the current source is other than FM, the PTY indicator lights up.

If a station starts broadcasting the selected PTY programme, this unit automatically changes the source and tunes in to the station.

To deactivate the PTY Standby Reception, select "OFF" in step 3 on the left column. The PTY indicator disappears.

Searching your favorite programme

You can search any one of the PTY codes. In addition, you can store your 6 favorite programme types in the number buttons. When shipped from the factory, the following 6 programme types have been stored in the number buttons (1 to 6).

What are MP3/WMA?

MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group (or MPEG) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10 (128 Kbps ^* ).

WMA (Windows Media® Audio) is the digital audio compression format developed by Microsoft Corporation.

* Bit rate is the average number of bits that one second of audio data will consume. The unit used is Kbps. To get a better audio quality, choose a higher bit rate. The most popular bit rate for encoding is 128 Kbps.
- For details information about the MP3/WMA discs, refer to "A Guide to MP3/WMA" (separate volume).

Compatible with ID3 Tag

Extra information data such as album title, performer name, song title, recording year, music genre and a brief comment can be stored within an MP3/WMA file.

This unit can show both ID3v1 (Version 1) and ID3v2 (Version 2) tags on the display. (See page 26.)

• Some characters cannot be shown correctly.
- If both ID3v1 and ID3v2 are recorded on a disc, ID3v2 information will be shown.

How are MP3/WMA files recorded and played back?

MP3/WMA "files (tracks)" can be recorded in "folders"—in PC terminology.

During recording, the files and folders can be arranged in a way similar to arranging files and folders of computer data.

"Root" is similar to the root of a tree. Every file and folder can be linked to and be accessed from the root.

The illustration below shows an example of how MP3/WMA files are recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW, how they are played back, and how they are searched for on this unit.

Notes:

• This unit cannot read or play an MP3 file without the extension code <.mp3> and a WMA track without the extension code <.wma> .
• This unit is not compatible with MP3 files encoded with Layer 1 and Layer 2 formats.
• This unit is not compatible with WMA files which are not based upon Windows Media® Audio.
• This unit is not compatible with Playlist**.

**A playlist is a simple text file, used on a PC, which enables users to make their own playback order without physically rearranging the files.

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.

Handling discs

This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs, CD-Rs (Recordable), CD-RWs (Rewritable), and CD Texts.

- This unit is also compatible with MP3 and WMA discs.

How to handle discs

When removing a disc

from its case, press down the center holder of the case and lift the disc out, holding it by the edges.

Center holder

• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.

When storing a disc into its case, gently insert the disc around the center holder (with the printed surface facing up).

- Make sure to store discs into the cases after use.

To keep discs clean

A dirty disc may not be played correctly. If a disc does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

To play new discs

New discs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such a disc is used, this unit may reject the disc.

To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD player in the following cases:

• After starting the heater in the car.
- If it becomes very humid inside the car.

Should this occur, the CD player may malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.

When playing a CD-R or CD-RW

Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

• Use only "finalized" CD-Rs or CD-RWs.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, and for the following reasons:

– Discs are dirty or scratched.
- Moisture condensation on the lens inside the unit.
- The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.
• CD-Rs or CD-RWs are susceptible to high temperatures or high humidity, so do not leave them inside your car.

• Do not use following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:

• Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal stuck to the surface.
  – Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an ink jet printer.

Using these discs under high temperatures or high humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to discs. For example,

• Stickers or labels may shrink and warp a disc.
• Stickers or labels may be peeled off so discs cannot be ejected.

– Print on discs may get sticky.

Read instructions or cautions about labels and printable discs carefully.

CAUTIONS:

• Do not insert 8 cm discs (single CDs) into the loading slot. (Such discs cannot be ejected.)
• Do not insert any disc of unusual shape—like a heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a malfunction.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any heat source or place them in a place subject to high temperature and humidity. Do not leave them in a car.
• Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.
