Receiving FM Stations with RDS  
Not all FM stations provide RDS signals, nor do all RDS  
stations provide the same services. If in doubt, check with  
local radio stations for details on RDS in your area.  
RDS may not work correctly if the received station is not  
transmitting the signals properly or if the signal strength is  
weak.  
You can use the RDS (Radio Data System) by using the but-  
tons on the Remote Control.  
RDS allows FM stations to send additional signals with  
their regular program signals. For example, the stations  
send their station names, and information about what type  
of program they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc. This  
Unit can receive the following types of RDS signals:  
RDS is not available for AM (MW) broadcasts.  
PS (Program Service):  
shows commonly known station names.  
To search for a program by PTY codes  
One of the advantages of the RDS service is that you can lo-  
cate a particular kind of program by specifying the PTY  
codes.  
PTY (Program Type):  
shows types of broadcast programmes.  
RT (Radio Text):  
shows text messages the station sends.  
To search for a program using PTY codes:

To temporarily switch to a broadcast pro-

Enhanced Other Network mode is another convenient RDS  
service that allows this Unit to switch temporarily to a  
broadcast program of your choice (TA News and/or Info)  
from the currently selected station, except if you are listen-  
ing to a non-RDS station (all AM (MW) stations or some  
FM stations).  
The Enhanced Other Network function is only applica-  
ble to the preset stations. (See page 13.)  
If an FM station does not broadcast Enhanced Other Net-  
work mode information, Enhanced Other Network can-  
not be activated.

CAUTION:  
When the sound alternated intermittently  
between the station tuned in by the En-  
hanced Other Network function and the  
current selected station, cancel the En-  
hanced Other Network mode. This does not  
constitute malfunction of the Unit.

tion while listening to an RDS station sending the Enhanced  
Other Network data, the Unit automatically switches to the  
station broadcasting the Alarm!signal.

Care And Maintenance  
Handle your CDs carefully, and they will last a long time.  
- DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.  
- DO NOT wipe it strong.  
- DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.  
- DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as insecti-  
cides to it.  
Compact Discs  
- DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in con-  
tact with it for a long time.  
Only CDs bearing these marks  
can be used with this System.  
However, continued use of irregu-  
lar shape CDs (heart-shape,  
octagonal, etc.) can damage the  
System.  
Cleaning the Lens  
If the lens in the CD pickup is dirty, dropout, etc., could de-  
grade sound.  
Open the CD door and clean the lens as shown.  
Use a blower (available from a camera store) to blow  
dust off the lens.  
Blower  
Remove the CD from its case by  
holding it at the edges while press-  
ing the cases center hole lightly.  
Do not touch the shiny surface of  
the CD, or bend the CD.  
Lens  
Put the CD back in its case after  
use to prevent warping.  
Be careful not to scratch the sur-  
face of the CD when placing it  
back in the case.  
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight,  
temperature extremes, and moisture.  
If there are fingerprints, etc. on the lens, gently wipe  
clean with a cotton swab.  
A dirty CD may not play cor-  
rectly. If a CD does become dirty,  
wipe it with a soft cloth in a  
straight line from center to edge.  
CAUTION:  
Do not use any solvent (for example, con-  
ventional record cleaner, spray thinner,  
benzine, etc.) to clean a CD.  
Moisture Condensation  
General Notes  
Moisture may condense on the lens  
inside the System in the following  
cases:  
After turning on heating in the  
room.  
In a damp room.  
If the System is brought directly  
from a cold to a warm place.  
Should this occur, the System may  
malfunction. In this case, leave the  
System turned on for a few hours un-  
til the moisture evaporates, unplug  
the AC power cord, and then plug it  
in again.  
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping  
your CDs and the mechanism clean.  
Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on  
shelves.  
Keep the Systems CD door closed when not in use.  
Cleaning the Unit  
Stains on the Unit  
Should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the Unit is heavily  
stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted neutral  
detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.  
Since the Unit may deteriorate in quality, become  
damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful  
about the followings.
