Receiving FM Stations with RDS
You can use the RDS (Radio Data System) by using the buttons on the Unit or the Remote Control. RDS allows FM stations to send additional signals with their regular programme signals. For example, the stations send their station names, and information about what type of programmes they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc. This unit can receive the following types of RDS signals: PS (Programme Service): shows commonly known station names. PTY (Programme Type): shows types of broadcast programmes. RT (Radio Text): shows text messages the station sends. What information can RDS signals provide? The display shows RDS signal information that the station sends.
PS (Programme Service): While searching, PS appears, then station name is displayed. NO PS appears if no signal is sent. PTY (Programme Type): While searching, PTY appears, then broadcast programme type is displayed. NO PTY appears if no signal is sent. RT (Radio Text): While searching, RT appears, then a text message sent by the station is displayed. NO RT appears if no signal is sent. Station Frequency: Station frequency (non-RDS service)
To show the RDS signals on the display
Press the DISPLAY MODE button while listening to an FM station. Each time you press the button, the display changes to show information in the following order:
If searching finishes at once, PS, PTY and RT will not appear on the display. If you press the DISPLAY MODE button while listening to an AM (MW/LW) station, the display only shows station frequency. RDS is not available for AM (MW/LW) broadcasts.

Press the PTY/EON button within 10 seconds again.
While searching, the display alternates between SEARCH and the selected PTY code. The unit searched 30 preset stations and stops when it finds a station of the category you have selected, then tunes into that station. To continue searching after the first stop, press the PTY/EON button again while the display indications blink. If no programme is found, NOT FOUND appears on the display. To stop searching at any time during the process, press the PTY/EON button to stop search operation.
FS-SD5(B).book Page 15 Tuesday, February 15, 2000 1:13 PM
To temporarily switch to a broadcast programme of your choice
EON (Enhanced Other Networks) is another convenient RDS service that allows this unit to switch temporarily to a broadcast programme of your choice (NEWS, TA or INFO) from the currently selected station, except if you are listening to a non-RDS station (all AM (MW/LW) stations or some FM stations). If an FM station does not broadcast EON information, EON cannot be activated. Case 1:If there is no station broadcasting the type of programme you have selected The broadcast station being currently heard will continue to be heard. When a station starts broadcasting the programme you have selected, this unit automatically switches to the station. The programme type (TA, NEWS or INFO) indicator starts blinking. When the programme is over, this unit goes back to the currently selected station, but still remains in EON Standby mode. Case 2:If there is a station broadcasting the type of programme you have selected This unit tunes to the station broadcasting the programme. The programme type (TA, NEWS or INFO) indicator starts blinking. When the programme is over, this unit goes back to the currently selected station, but still remains in EON Standby mode.

s Press the AHB PRO button to reinforce the bass sound. s Press the BASS/TREBLE button on the Remote Control to control the tone. (See Tone Control on page 10.) To exit MD/AUX mode, you will automatically switch out of MD/AUX mode when you select another source.

Care And Maintenance

Handle your CDs carefully, and they will last a long time.

Cleaning the Lens

If the lens in the CD pickup is dirty, dropout, etc., could degrade sound. Open the Top Cover and clean the lens as shown. Use a blower (available from a camera store) to blow dust off the lens.

Blower Lens

Compact Discs
Only CDs bearing this mark can be used with this System. However, continued use of irregular shape CDs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the System.
Remove the CD from its case by holding it at the edges while pressing the cases center hole lightly. Do not touch the shiny surface of the CD, or bend the CD. Put the CD back in its case after use to prevent warping. Be careful not to scratch the surface of the CD when placing it back in the case. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture. A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a CD does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.
If there are fingerprints, etc. on the lens, gently wipe clean with a cotton swab.
Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean a CD.

Moisture Condensation

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 until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in again.

General Notes

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 Top Cover closed when not in use.

Troubleshooting

If you are having a problem with your System, check this list for a possible solution before calling for service. If you cannot solve the problem from the hints given here, or the System has been physically damaged, call a qualified person, such as your dealer, for service. Action Check all connections and make corrections. (See pages 4 to 8.) Disconnect the headphones. Reconnect the antenna securely. Change the position and direction of the AM Loop Antenna. Extend FM Wire Antenna to the best reception position. Clean or replace the CD. Put the CD in with the label side up. Remove the obstruction. Replace the batteries. Unplug the System then plug it back in after a few minutes.
Symptom No sound is heard.
Possible Cause Connections are incorrect, or loose. Headphones are connected.

Poor radio reception

The antenna is disconnected. The AM Loop Antenna is too close to the System. The FM Wire Antenna is not properly extended and positioned. The CD is dirty or scratched. The CD is upside down. The path between the Remote Control and the sensor on the Unit is blocked. The batteries have lost their charge. The built-in microprocessor has malfunctioned due to external electrical interference.
