FACEPLATE RELEASE

Press the OPEN button (7) to detach the removable faceplate.

SOUND ADJUSTMENT

Press the SEL button (10) to select the desired adjustment mode. The adjustment mode will change in the following order:

By pressing the volume up button ▲ (11) or volume down button ▼ (12), it is possible to adjust the selected mode. Press the SEL button (10) for several seconds to activate the cyclical mode of the following functions for user's selection.

a) TA SEEK OR TA ALARM

- TA SEEK mode:

When a newly tuned station does not receive TP information for several seconds, the radio retunes to the next station that has the TP information but is not the same station (PI) as the last one. When TP information is lost at the current station for the retune time set by RETUNE SHORT (30 sec.) or RETUNE LONG (90 sec.), the radio starts to retune to the next station with the same PI. If the same PI station is not found within one cyclic search, the radio retunes to the next station with TP information.

- TA ALARM mode:

When this mode is selected, no automatic retune mode is activated. Only a double beep sound (ALARM) is output.

When a newly tuned station does not

have TP information for several seconds, beeps are emitted. When TP information is lost at the current station for the retune time, the beep sound is output. When a newly tuned station has no RDS signal, "PI SEEK" is somewhat suppressed.

b) PI SOUND or PI MUTE

While AF switching is implemented in a C201 station, AF can switch to 100 MHz, which is not a genuine AF (where a different PI with the same AF) in short "DIP".

If a car cruises that critical area back and forth, an oscillation phenomenon can occur, because a different PI code can be received from 100 MHz with "XXX" PI. The car radio has a special procedure to reduce even this kind of unavoidable situation; however, there is a limit to escaping this serious case perfectly.

In that serious case, 2 modes are selectable as follows:

• PI SOUND mode: When the above different PI sound (DIP) is heard once in a while, the DIP's sound will be heard for a short time.
• PI MUTE mode: Under the same situation as above, a mute sound will be heard for a short time.

c) RETUNE L or RETUNE S mode The initial time of automatic TA search or PI search modes is selected.

When PI information is not caught for the retune time, the radio starts to retune to the next station with the same PI.

When the same PI station does not catch 1 cyclic search, the radio goes to the last station and waits for several minutes until the PI code is received.

• RETUNE L mode: Selected as 90 seconds.
• RETUNE S mode: Selected as 30 seconds.

d) MASK DPI or MASK ALL mode The AF frequency (which has different PI or NO RDS signal with high field strength) is masked during checking PI when the unit searches AF. The unit doesn't search this AF (DIP) for few minutes. In the case of the AF of NO RDS signal with high field strength, if the real AF is wrongly masked as DIP by some interference, the unit hesitates to search real Afs. For this reason, the unit has the user option (MASK DPI) which doesn't mask the AF of NO RDS signal with high field strength. In MASK DPI mode, the wrong sound or long mute (according to PI SOUND or PI MUTE) can be heard from the AF station which has NO RDS signal and of which the field strength is higher than that of the currently tuning AF (station). But, these phenomenons are rare and the user will hardly hear the wrong sound in whole Europe.

- MASK DPI mode: Masked only the AF which has different PI.

- MASK ALL mode: Masked the AF which has different PI and NO RDS signal with high field strength.

e) BEEP 2'ND, BEEP ALL, BEEP OFF mode The situation of beep sound is selected. The 3 mode is selected as also by pressing the volume up button ^▲ (11) or volume down button ^▼ (12).

- BEEP 2'nd mode: The beep is only generated when all allowed double key is pressed long (1 sec). e.g. When preset button (14) is pressed. When BAD/LOU button (13) is pressed.

When AMS button (18) is pressed. - BEEP ALL mode: The beep is generated when every key is pressed. - BEEP OFF mode: The beep is disabled.

LOUDNESS

Press BND /LOU button (13) for several seconds to reinforce the bass output. Press it for several seconds again to release this function.

DISPLAY

Press DSP button (15) to operate as the conversion of each display mode as follows:

• In case of receiving a RDS station In radio mode: ->PS ->CT ->FREQ ->PTY -> In CD mode: ->CD ->CT ->PS ->FREQ ->PTY ->
• In case of no receiving CT or PTY information, the display shows as "NO CLOCK" or "NO PTY".
• In case of receiving a non RDS station In radio mode: ->"NO CLOCK" ->FREQ -> "NO PTY" -> In CD mode: -> CD -> CT -> FREQ -> "NO PTY" -> Each displaying time is several seconds, and come back to 1^st position after several seconds.

Notes:

- CT = clock time

- FREQ = frequency

EQUALIZATION

Press the EQ button (19) to turn on the equalization function and to select the desired audio mode. There are five kinds of modes as below:

LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY

The display (8) shows the current frequency and activated functions.

RESET FUNCTION

The RESET button (24) must be activated with either a ballpoint pen or a thin metal object.

The RESET button is to be activated for the following reasons:

• Initial installation of the unit when all wiring is completed.
• All the function buttons do not operate.

At radio mode, press BND/LOU button (13) shortly to select the desired band. The reception band will change in the following order:

- SELECTING STATION

Press +▶ button (17) or button ←— (16) shortly to activate automatic seek function. Press for several seconds until "MANUAL" appears on the display, the manual tuning mode is selected. If both buttons have not been pressed for several seconds, they will return to seek tuning mode and "AUTO" appears on the display.

• AUTOMATIC MEMORY STORING & PROGRAM SCANNING

- Automatic memory storing: Press AMS button (18) for several seconds, the radio searches from the current frequency and checks the signal strength until one cycle

search is finished, and then the 6 strongest stations are stored into the corresponding preset number button.

- Program scanning

Press AMS button (18) shortly to scan preset stations. When the field strength level is more than the threshold level of stop level, the radio holds at that preset number for several seconds with release mute, then searches again.

- STATION STORING

Press any one of the preset buttons (14) (1 to 6) to select a station, which had been stored in the memory. Press this button for several seconds (until 2ND beeps come out), current station is stored into the number button.

- Setting RDS mode Press AF button (3) and release immediately to switch on or off RDS mode. Whenever RDS is switched on, symbol "AF" appears on the display. Program name is displayed on receiving a RDS station. "AF" starts blinking if the broadcasting signal gets worse. "ALARM" will be displayed when an emergency broadcasting is received, meanwhile sound output level will be adjusted to the preset output level automatically when the volume control is set at minimum.

- Regional Program Operation: Press AF button (3) for several seconds to switch on or off region mode.

Some broadcasting stations change their program from normal broadcasting to regional

broadcasting for a certain time period. When region is on, the current listening program remains unchanged. When region is off, it allows the reception to move to the regional station.

- Using PTY to Select Program PTY button (1) is operated as follows:

▶PTY MUSIC group→PTY SPEECH group PTY off

While selecting PTY engagement, its selection is implemented by preset buttons as described in notes. When PTY is selected, the radio starts to search corresponding PTY information, and stops if the corresponding PTY information is detected.

If corresponding PTY information is not existed any more, PTY engaging is automatically exit to normal mode. Notes:

When PTY mode is engaged, the PTY switch is shared as follows:

▶ PTY MUSIC group → PTY SPEECH group PTY off

According to above 2 allotted group, the preset number is used for PTY selection as follows:

MUSIC group

* POP M, ROCK M

*EASY M, LIGHT M

*CLASSICS, OTHER M

*JAZZ, COUNTRY

*NATION M, OLDIES

*FOLK M SPEECH group

*NEWS, AFFAIRS, INFO

*SPORT, EDUCATE, DRAMA

*CULTURE, SCIENCE, VARIED

*WEATHER, FINANCE, CHILDREN

*SOCIAL, RELIGION, PHONE IN

*TRAVEL, LEISURE, DOCUMENT

- Listening to Traffic Announcement: The TA button (2) is operated as follows: When pressed briefly, it toggles TA mode on or off.

When TA mode is on and a traffic announcement is transmitted:

If the unit is in CD (MP3) mode, it will temporarily switch to radio mode.

Temporary switch to an EON linked station when EON detects a traffic announcement on that other program.

If the volume level was below the threshold point, it will be raised to the threshold point. However, if the user changed the volume level to a value above the threshold point (minimum TA volume level), it will be set to the last level.

When TA mode is on, TA of individual segment is turned on.

When a TP station is received, TP of individual segment is turned on.

TA interruption function

The current traffic announcement is cancelled by pressing this key.

However, the TA mode will not be turned off.

When pressed long, it selects EON TA LOCAL/EON TA DISTANCE mode.

The purpose of this key is to reduce unwanted EON TA switching, which occurs when EON TA information was received from the current station and the radio switched to that EON linked station, but no information could be received because the EON linked station is located too far from that area. So the radio switches back to the current station again. In the above operation, a customer listens to a wrong program or mute sound for a while.

EON TA LOCAL mode

When the field strength level of the EON linked station is less than the threshold level, the radio does not switch to that station, and a customer can hardly listen to any disturbances.

When EON TA LOCAL mode is selected, "EON TA LO" is indicated on the numeric display for a few seconds.

EON TA DISTANCE mode

EON TA switching is attempted based on the information from the current station.

When EON TA DISTANCE mode is selected, "EON TA DX" is indicated on the numeric display for a few seconds.

The RDS data used are the PI, PS,

AF, TP, TA, EON and PTY data.

PI: Program Identification code Code for identifying programs

PS: Program Service Name Broadcast station name data expressed in alphanumeric characters

AF: Alternative Frequencies Frequency list of broadcasting stations transmitting the same program

TP: Traffic Program Identification Identification data for traffic information-broadcasting station

TA: Traffic Announcement Identification Identification data showing whether traffic information is being transmitted or not
