CD PREVENTIVE CARE  
Do not use a CD with tape, seals, or paste on it, because  
damage to the unit may result.  
This compact disc player is designed for use with  
following types of disc only. Never attempt to load any  
other type of disc into the unit. The unit will also play  
8-cm (3-inch) compact discs.  
Compact discs are not affected by small particles of  
dust or fingerprints on their playing surface, but even so  
they should be kept clean. Wipe by using a clean, dry  
cloth. Do not wipe with a circular motion; wipe straight  
outward from the center.  
(Playback only)  
Be sure to use only CD-R and CD-RW discs made by  
reliable manufacturers.  
Some discs cannot be played depending on the disc  
characteristics or recording conditions (copyright-  
protected in a particular way, etc.).  
Compact discs are not subjected to wear during play,  
but damage to the disc surface when the disc is being  
handled can adversely affect the discs play.  
Do not try to clean the discs surface by using any type  
of disc cleaner, record spray, antistatic spray or liquid,  
or any other chemical-based liquid, because such  
substances might irreparably damage the discs surface.  
Do not use cleaning discs or warped discs. All of these  
could damage the unit.  
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperature  
or high humidity for a long period of time, because  
these might warp or otherwise damage the disc.  
To prevent a malfunction of this unit  
Do not use any non standard shaped CD (heart, etc.)  
available on the market, because it may damage the  
unit.  
No!

Notes  
There should be no large obstacles between the remote control  
Insert batteries into the battery compartment.  
Replace the battery compartment cover.  
and the main unit.  
If the remote control sensor is directly illuminated by strong  
lighting (especially an inverter type of fluorescent lamp, etc.),  
it might cause the remote control not to work correctly. In this  
case, reposition the main unit to avoid direct lighting.  
Battery replacement  
If you find that the remote control must be used closer to  
the main unit than usual, the batteries are weak. Replace  
batteries with new ones.  
Removing the protection sheet  
The remote control is shipped with a protection sheet to  
prevent the surface from being scratched during  
transportation.  
When removing the sheet, first put adhesive tape on an  
edge of the remote control so that the tape sticks to the  
sheet. Then peel the sheet off with the tape.  
Notes  
Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement.  
Be sure the polarities are correct. (See the illustration inside  
the battery compartment.)  
Remove the batteries if the remote control will not be used for  
an extended period of time.  
If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid touching  
the leaked material or letting it come in contact with clothing,  
etc. Clean the battery compartment thoroughly before  
installing new batteries.  
Note  
Do not scratch the remote control surface when peeling the  
sheet off.

Receiving RDS data  
The name of the RDS station being received is displayed.  
If the unit cannot find a station with PS data, the unit stops  
searching and NO PSappears on the display.  
RDS (Radio Data System) is a data transmission system  
by FM stations in many countries. Stations using this  
system transmit an inaudible stream of data in addition to  
the normal radio signal. RDS data contains various types  
of information, such as PS (Program Service), PTY  
(Program Type), RT (Radio Text), and CT (Clock Time).  
RDS PS  
PTY  
POWER  
The type of the program on the RDS station now being  
received is displayed. You can make this unit search for a  
station which is broadcasting a program of a desired  
program type. (Refer to PTY program mode in the next  
section for details.)

RECEIVING RDS STATIONS  
If you receive an RDS station of some other  
country, the built-in clock is synchronized with  
the time setting of the country.  
If the built-in clock is not yet set for the current  
time or reset due to a power failure, etc., it will be  
set for the time of the CT data automatically,  
whether this setting is ON or OFF.  
Optional settings for  
RDS functions  
The tuner has the following functions which make use of  
the RDS data service. These are originally in operation  
ON. However, you can turn these functions OFF, if so  
desired.  
2. LOCAL = CT (ON/OFF)  
If the RDS station being received employs the  
local time (summer time, etc.) data service, its  
time is displayed in the CT mode.
