[. . . ] Polarité de la fiche Precautions • Do not open the unit. refer servicing to qualified personnel only. € Operate the unit using only the power sources given in “Specifications”. € For AC operation, use the AC power adaptor recommended for this unit; do not use any other type. [. . . ] € “H” comes on in the display. € The unit is being used in extremely high or low temperatures or in a place with excessive moisture. € Weak batteries • In a vehicle or in a building, place your unit near a window. No sound comes on when a preset button is pressed. Repeated pressing of BAND changes the band in the following order: PS (Programme Service) - Displays station names in up to 8 letters. @ Earphone jack @ Prise de casque DC IN 3V Displaying the Station Name You can set the unit to display the name of the tuned-in station. € Automatic switch from regular radio broadcast to traffic information provided by the EON network. 2 *Enhanced Other Networks–EON An EON network consists of a group of stations whereby a listener, who is tuned in to a participating station using a RDS compatible radio, can automatically receive RDS data transmitted by other stations in the network. When the radio is receiving RDS data, “RDS” and the name of the station transmitting the data appear in the display. If no RDS data is received, “RDS” automatically goes off. POWER ALTERNATIVE • Automatic search and switch to a frequency with SEARCH a relatively stronger signal for a station broadcasting on multiple frequencies. PRESET TUNE/ TIME SET LIGHT * Both FM1 and FM2 refer to the same FM waveband and are differentiated solely to enable more than one station to be assigned to a preset button. ) Setting the Clock Using the CT Function The CT function of the RDS enables the built-in clock of the unit to automatically synchronize with CT data being transmitted. 4 Turn TUNE/TIME SET upward or downward until you locate the frequency of your desired station. When you turn TUNE/TIME SET to or , the frequency readout in the display increases or decreases, respectively. Turning it to or causes the readout to rapidly increase or decrease, respectively. The display shows the current time even when the radio is turned off. mHz/kHz AF (Alternative Frequencies) - Automatic selection of a relatively stronger signal. Notes • RDS data can only be received on the FM band. € The RDS function of this radio will not be activated if the tuned-in FM station does not transmit RDS data. The function may also not work properly in areas where RDS transmissions are in an experimental stage. 1 Switch STATION NAME to CLOCK 2 when “RDS” is lit in the display. [. . . ] Hence, when the preset station is tuned in and no RDS data is received, the ALTERNATIVE SEARCH function automatically scans for RDS data among the other frequencies of the station through the AF data. The display of the unit will show the rapidly changing frequencies during the search. If a frequency with RDS data is detected, the unit switches to that frequency. If RDS data is not detected, the unit reverts to the frequency initially tuned in. [. . . ]
