RDS Operations

RDS (Radio Data System)
This unit has a built-in RDS decoder system that supports broadcast stations transmitting RDS data.

Also, if a traffic announcement or programme type is broadcast from an RDS station, no matter what mode you are in, this broadcast is received. Additionally, if EON information is received, this information enables automatic switching of other preset stations on the same network and interruption of the station being received with traffic information from other stations (TP). This function is not available in some areas. When using the RDS function, always set the radio to FM mode. AF : Alternative Frequency PS : Programme Service Name PTY : Programme Type EON : Enhanced Other Network TP : Traffic Programme

This function can only be used when TP is lit in the display. When TP is lit, this means that the RDS broadcast station being received has traffic announcement programmes.

Adjusting PTY

This function enables you to listen to a broadcast of the selected programme type when it starts even if the unit is on a function mode other than radio.
Some countries do not yet have PTY broadcast. In the TA standby mode, a TP station has priority over a PTY broadcast station.

MP3 Mode Operations

What is MP3?
MP3 is an audio compression method and classified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards. This audio compression method has penetrated into PC users and become a standard format. This MP3 features the original audio data compression to about 12 percent of its initial size with a high quality sound. This means that about 10 music CDs can be recorded on a CD-R disc or CD-RW disc to allow a long listening time without having to change CDs.

Selecting tracks (Songs)

Press the [ ] or [ ] button. : Playback will start from the next track. : Playback will start from the beginning of the track currently playing. When this button is pressed again, the CD will play from the previous track.

When writing MP3 file on a CD-R disc or CD-RW disc, please select "ISO9660 level 1, 2, 3 or JOLIET or Romeo" as the writing software format. normal play may not be possible if the disc is recorded on another format. The folder name and file name can be displayed as the title during MP3 play but the title must be within 16 (Folder Name) or 28 (File Name) single byte alphabetical letters and numerals (excluding an extension) The MP3 recording media reproducible on this unit has the following limitations : 1. Maximum number of files : 254 2. Maximum number of folders : 128 3. Some noise may occur depending on the type of encoder software used while recording.

For Audio CD mode pressing the [ ] or [ ] button for 1 second or longer will move forward or backward 5 times faster than normal play, and pressing it for 3 seconds or longer will do the operation 30 times faster. For MP3 mode, pressing the [ ] or [ ] button for 1 second or longer will move forward or backward 10 times faster than normal play.
