If the sound quality decreases and the stereo effect is lost while listening to an FM station

In some areas, adjacent stations may interfere with each other. If this interference occurs, this unit can automatically reduce this interference noise (the initial setting when shipped from the factory). However, in this case, the sound quality will be degraded and the stereo effect will be also lost.

If you do not want to degrade the sound quality and to lose the stereo effect, rather than eliminate the interference noise, see "To change the FM tuner selectivity" on page 33.

What you can do with RDS EON

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 "EON (Enhanced Other Networks)." The EON indicator lights up while receiving an FM station with the EON data. By using the EON data sent from a station, you can tune into 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
• TP (Traffic 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 tune in 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 the next page.)

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, NetworkTracking 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:

Mode 1

The AF indicator lights up but the REG indicator does not.

Network-Tracking is activated with Regionalization set to "off."

Switches to another station within the same network when the receiving signals from the current station become weak.

Note:

In this mode, the programme may differ from the one currently received.

Mode 2

Both the AF indicator and the REG indicator light up.

Network-Tracking is activated with Regionalization set to "on."

Switches to another station, within the same network, broadcasting the same programme when the receiving signals from the current station become weak.

Mode 3

Neither the AF indicator nor the REG indicator lights up.

Network-Tracking is deactivated.

Note:

If a DAB tuner is connected and Alternative Reception (for DAB services) is activated, Network-Tracking Reception is also activated automatically. On the other hand, Network-Tracking Reception cannot be deactivated without deactivating Alternative Reception. (See page 51.)

The same programme can be received on different frequencies.

Using Standby Reception

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

Note:

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

TA Standby Reception

• When you press TP RDS while listening to an FM station, the TP indicator is lit during reception of a TP (Traffic Programme) station and the TA standby mode is engaged.

Note:

When the station being received is not a TP station, the TP indicator flashes. Press or to engage the TA standby mode. "SEARCH" appears on the display, and TP station search starts. When a TP station is tuned in, the TP indicator is lit.

• If you are listening to a CD, and wish to listen to a TP station, press TP RDS to enter the TA standby mode. (The TP indicator lights up.)

If a traffic programme starts broadcasting while the TA standby mode is active, "TRAFFIC" appears and the playback source changes to the FM band. The volume increases to the preset TA volume level and the traffic programme can be heard (see page 18).

To deactivate the TA standby mode, press TP RDS again.

PTY Standby Reception

• When you press PTY while listening to an FM station, the PTY indicator is lit during reception of a PTY station and the PTY standby mode is engaged. The selected PTY name stored on page 14 flashes for 5 seconds.

Note:

When the station being received is not a PTY station, the PTY indicator flashes. Press or engage the PTY standby mode. "SEARCH" appears on the display, and PTY station search starts. When a PTY station is tuned in, the PTY indicator is lit.

• If you are listening to a CD, and wish to listen to a selected PTY broadcast, press PTY to enter the PTY standby mode. (The PTY indicator lights up.)

If the selected PTY programme starts broadcasting while the PTY standby mode is active, the selected PTY name appears and the playback source changes to the FM band. The selected PTY programme can then be heard.

To deactivate the PTY standby mode, press PTY again.

What is BBE?

The BBE ^11* function restores the brilliance and clarity of the original live sound in recording, broadcasts, etc.

When a speaker reproduces sound, it introduces frequency-dependent phase shifting, causing high-frequency sounds to take longer to reach the ear than low frequency sounds. The BBE ^II function adjusts the phase relationship between the low, mid and high frequencies by adding a progressively longer delay time to the low and mid frequencies, so that all frequencies reach the listener's ears at the proper time.

In addition, the BBE ^11 function boosts low and high frequencies, which loudspeakers tend to be less efficient in reproducing, through dynamic, program-driven augmentation. When combined with the phase compensation feature, the resulting sound has a clearer, more finely detailed "live" presence.

Each time you press - or + in step 2 on the previous page, the BBE function changes as follows:

As the number gets higher, the BBE ^II function becomes stronger. When shipped from the factory, the BBE ^II function is set to "BBE 2."

To cancel the BBE ^II function, select "BBE OFF."

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."

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

What you can do more with DAB

Tracing the same program automatically (Alternative Reception)

You can keep listening to the same program

• While receiving a DAB service:

When driving in an area where a service cannot be received, this unit automatically tunes in another ensemble or FM RDS station, broadcasting the same program.

• While receiving an FM RDS station:

When driving in an area where a DAB service is broadcasting the same program as the FM RDS station is broadcasting, this unit automatically tunes into the DAB service.

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 use Alternative Reception

When shipped from the factory, Alternative Reception is activated.

Handling CDs

This unit has been designed only to reproduce the CDs bearing the COMPACT and DISC marks. Other discs cannot be played back.

How to handle CDs

When removing a CD from its case, press down the center holder of the case and lift the CD out, holding it by the edges.

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

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

• Make sure to store CDs into the cases after use.

To keep CDs clean

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

To play new CDs

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

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 CD and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.

CAUTIONS:

• Do not insert 8cm (3 3/16") CDs (single CDs) into the loading slot. (Such CDs cannot be ejected.)
• Do not insert any CD of unusual shape - like a heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a malfunction.
• Do not expose CDs 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 CDs.

When playing a CD-R (Recordable)

You can play back your original CD-Rs on this receiver.

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

• Some CD-Rs recorded on CD recorders may not be played back on this receiver because of their disc characteristics, and of the following reasons:

• Discs are dirty or scratched.

• Moisture condensation occurs on the lens inside the unit.

• The pickup lens inside the CD player is dirty.

• Use only "finalized" CD-Rs.

• CD-RWs (Rewritable) cannot be played back on this receiver.
• Do not use the CD-Rs with stickers or sticking labels on the surface. They may cause malfunctions.

About mistracking:

Mistracking may result from driving on extremely rough roads. This does not damage the unit and the CD, but will be annoying.

We recommend that you stop CD play while driving on such rough roads.
