RDS OPERATIONS  
To use Network-Tracking Reception  
What you can do with RDS  
You can select the different modes of network-  
tracking reception to continue listening to the  
same programme in its finest reception.  
RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to  
send an additional signal along with their regular  
programme signals. For example, the stations  
send their station names, as well as information  
about what type of programme they broadcast,  
such as sports or music, etc.  
Another advantage of RDS function is called  
“Enhanced Other Networks.By using the  
Enhanced Other Networks data sent from a  
station, you can tune in to a different station of a  
different network broadcasting your favorite  
programme or traffic announcement while  
listening to another programme or to another  
source such as CD.  
When shipped from the factory, AF” is selected.  
• AF:  
Network-Tracking Reception is  
activated with Regionalization set to  
“off.”  
With this setting, the unit switches to  
another station within the same  
network when the received signals  
from the current station become  
weak. (In this mode, the programme  
may differ from the one currently  
received.)  
The AF indicator lights up but the  
REG indicator does not.  
By receiving the RDS data, this unit can do the  
following:  
Tracing the same programme automatically  
(Network-Tracking Reception)  
• Standby Reception of TA (Traffic  
Announcement) or your favorite programme  
• PTY (Programme Type) search  
• Programme search  
• AF REG: Network-Tracking Reception is  
activated with Regionalization set to  
“on.”  
With this setting, the unit switches to  
another station, within the same  
network, broadcasting the same  
programme when the received  
signals from the current station  
become weak.  
• And some other functions  
Tracing the same programme  
automatically (Network-Tracking  
Reception)  
Both the AF indicator and the REG  
indicator light up.  
• OFF:  
Network-Tracking Reception is  
deactivated.  
Neither the AF indicator nor the REG  
indicator lights up.  
When driving in an area where FM reception is  
not good, the tuner built in this unit automatically  
tunes in to another RDS station, broadcasting the  
same programme with stronger signals. So, you  
can continue to listen to the same programme in  
its finest reception, no matter where you drive.  
(See the illustration on page 17.)  
Two types of the RDS data are used to make  
Network-Tracking Reception work correctly  
—PI (Programme Identification) and AF  
(Alternative Frequency).  
Without receiving these data correctly from the  
RDS station you are listening to, Network-  
Tracking Reception will not operate.  
AF and REG indicators  
Note:  
If a DAB tuner is connected and Alternative Reception  
(for DAB services) is activated, Network-Tracking  
Reception is also activated (“AF”) automatically. On  
the other hand, Network-Tracking Reception cannot  
be deactivated without deactivating Alternative  
Reception. (See page 35.)

CD CHANGER OPERATIONS  
We recommend that you use the JVC MP3-  
compatible CD changer with your unit.  
About MP3 discs  
MP3 “files (tracks)” can be recorded in “folders”  
—in PC terminology.  
During recording, the files and folders can be  
arranged in a way similar to arranging files and  
folders of computer data.  
Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every file  
and folder can be linked to and be accessed from  
the root.  
By using this CD changer, you can play back  
your original CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs  
(Rewritable) recorded either in audio CD format  
or in MP3 format.  
You can also connect other CH-X series  
CD changers (except CH-X99 and CH-X100).  
However, they are not compatible with MP3  
discs, so you cannot play back MP3 discs.  
You cannot use the KD-MK series CD  
changers with this unit.

DAB TUNER OPERATIONS  
We recommend that you use DAB (Digital Audio  
Broadcasting) tuner KT-DB1500 or KT-DB1000  
with your unit.  
If you have another DAB tuner, consult your JVC  
IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer.  
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied for your  
DAB tuner.  
Tuning in to an ensemble and  
one of the services  
A typical ensemble has 6 or more programmes  
(services) broadcast at the same time. After  
tuning in to an ensemble, you can select a  
service you want to listen to.  
Before you start....  
Press FM/AM DAB briefly if CD, CD changer, or  
external component is the current source.  
What is DAB system?  
DAB is one of the digital radio broadcasting  
systems available today. It can deliver CD  
quality sound without any annoying  
interference and signal distortion.  
Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures, and  
data.  
In contrast to FM broadcast, where each  
programme is transmitted on its own  
frequency, DAB combines several  
programmes (called “services”) to form one  
“ensemble.”  
1 Select the DAB tuner.  
Each time you press and  
hold the button, the DAB  
tuner and the FM/AM tuner  
are alternately selected.

Each time you press the  
button, the DAB band  
changes as follows:  
With the DAB tuner connected with this unit,  
you can enjoy these DAB services.  
DAB1  
DAB2  
DAB3  
Note:  
Note:  
This receiver has three DAB bands (DAB1,  
DAB2, DAB3). You can use any of them to tune  
in to an ensemble.  
When reception switches between DAB and FM, the  
listening volume level may increase or decrease  
inconveniently. This change in the volume level results  
from unequal audio injection levels at broadcaster  
site, but not from the malfunction of this unit.  
To prevent this inconvenience, you can adjust the DAB  
volume level. (See “To adjust the DAB volume level”  
on page 35.)

MAINTENANCE  
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW  
Handling discs  
Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read  
their instructions or cautions carefully.  
• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.  
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played  
back on this unit because of their disc  
characteristics, and for the following reasons:  
– Discs are dirty or scratched.  
This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs,  
CD-Rs (Recordable), and CD-RWs (Rewritable).  
• This unit is not compatible with MP3 discs,  
but can operate a JVC MP3-compatible  
CD changer.  
– Moisture condensation on the lens inside the  
unit.  
– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.  
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time  
since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than  
that of regular CDs.  
• CD-Rs or CD-RWs are susceptible to high  
temperatures or high humidity, so do not leave  
them inside your car.  
• Do not use following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:  
– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal  
stuck to the surface.  
How to handle discs  
When removing a disc  
from its case, press down  
the center holder of the case  
and lift the disc out, holding  
it by the edges.  
Center holder  
• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not  
touch its recording surface.  
When storing a disc into its case, gently insert  
the disc around the center holder (with the  
printed surface facing up).  
• Make sure to store discs into the cases after  
use.  
– Discs on which labels can be directly printed  
by an ink jet printer.  
Using these discs under high temperatures or  
high humidity may cause malfunctions or  
damage to discs. For example,  
– Stickers or labels may shrink and warp a  
disc.  
To keep discs clean  
A dirty disc may not be played  
correctly. If a disc does become  
dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a  
straight line from center to edge.  
– Stickers or labels may be peeled off so discs  
cannot be ejected.  
– Print on discs may get sticky.  
Read instructions or cautions about labels and  
printable discs carefully.  
To play new discs  
New discs may have some rough  
spots around the inner and outer  
edges. If such a disc is used, this  
unit may reject the disc.  
To remove these rough spots, rub  
the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.  
CAUTIONS:  
• Do not insert 8 cm discs (single CDs) into the  
loading slot. (Such discs cannot be ejected.)  
• Do not insert any disc of unusual shape—like a  
heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a  
malfunction.  
Moisture condensation  
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or any  
heat source or place them in a place subject to  
high temperature and humidity. Do not leave  
them in a car.  
• Do not use any solvent (for example,  
conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner,  
benzine, etc.) to clean discs.  
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the  
CD player in the following cases:  
• After starting the heater in the car.  
• If it becomes very humid inside the car.  
Should this occur, the CD player may  
malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave  
the unit turned on for a few hours until the  
moisture evaporates.
