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

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:
What information can RDS signals provide?
The display shows RDS signal information that the station
sends.

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-

holding it at the edges while press-
ing the case’s 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 System’s 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.
