RDS OPERATIONS
What you can do with RDS
The same programme can be received on
different frequencies.
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.
Programme 1

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 favourite
programme or traffic announcement while
listening to another programme or to another
source such as CD.
Programme 1

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 favourite programme
• PTY (Programme Type) search
• Programme search
• And some other functions
To use Network-Tracking Reception
You can select the different modes of network-
tracking reception to continue listening to the
same programme in its finest reception.
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
receiving 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.
Tracing the same programme
automatically (Network-Tracking
Reception)
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.
Two types of the RDS data are used to make
Network-Tracking Reception work correctly—
PI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative
Frequency).
• 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 receiving
signals from the current station become weak.
Both the AF indicator and the REG indicator
light up.
Without receiving these data correctly from the
RDS station you are listening to, Network-
Tracking Reception will not operate.
• Off:
Network-Tracking Reception is deactivated.
Neither the AF indicator nor the REG indicator
lights up.
14
Using TA Standby Reception
TA Standby Reception allows the unit to switch
temporarily to Traffic Announcement (TA) from the
current source (another FM station or CD and other
connected components).
AF indicator

• TA Standby Reception will not work if you are listening
to an AM station.
Note:
If a DAB tuner is connected and Alternative Reception

the other hand, Network-Tracking Reception cannot be
deactivated without deactivating Alternative Reception.

MP3 INTRODUCTION
What is MP3?
Precautions when recording MP3 files
on a CD-R or CD-RW
MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts
Group (or MPEG) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a
file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10
(128 Kbps*). That means, by using MP3 format,
one CD-R or CD-RW can contain 10 times as
much data volume as a regular CD can.
This unit can only read MP3 files that are recorded
in the format that is compliant with ISO 9660 Level
1, Level 2 or Joliet.
How are MP3 files recorded
and played back?
*Bit rate is the average number of bits that one second of
audio data will consume. The unit used is Kbps (1000
bits/second).To get a better audio quality, choose a higher
bit rate.The most popular bit rate for encoding is 128 Kbps.
MP3 “files (tracks)” can be recorded in
“directories (folders)”—in PC terminology.
During recording, the files and directories can be
arranged in a way similar to arranging files and
directories/folders of computer data.
“Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every file
and directory can be linked to and be accessed
from the root.
This unit is incorporated with an MP3 decoder.
You can play back MP3 files (tracks) recorded on
CD-Rs, CD-RWs, and CD-ROMs.
Compatible with ID3v1
Extra information data such as album title, performer
name, song title, recording year, music genre and a
brief comment can be stored within an MP3 file.
Playback order, file search order, and directory
search order of the MP3 files recorded on a disc
are determined by the writing (or encoding)
application; therefore, playback order may be
different from the one you have intended while
recording the directories and the files.
This unit can show ID3v1 tags (album name,
performer name and song title) on the display.
(See page 57.)
• Some characters cannot be shown correctly.
• This unit is not compatible with ID3v2.
The illustration on the next page shows an
example of how MP3 files are recorded on a
CD-R or CD-RW, how they are played back, and
how they are searched for on this unit.
Other Main Features in this unit:
• Maximum number of directories/files: 289
(Total)
• Available characters for directory/file names:
A–Z, 0–9, _ (underscore)
• Maximum number of characters for file name
(ISO 9660 Level 1): 12 (inclusive of
separation mark—“.” and
extension code—“mp3”)
(ISO 9660 Level 2): 31 (inclusive of
separation mark—“.” and
Notes:
• The unit can read a CD-ROM containing MP3
files. However, if non-MP3 files are recorded
together with MP3 files, this unit will take a longer
time to scan the disc. It may also cause the unit to
malfunction.
• The unit cannot read or play an MP3 file without
the extension code—mp3.

There is no limit on the number of the hierarchy levels (nested

hierarchy levels up to 8 for stable operations.
MP3 playback/search order
• The numbers in circles below the MP3 files ( ) indicate the playback order and search order of the
MP3 files. Normally this unit plays back MP3 files in the recorded order.
• The numbers inside the directories indicate the playback order and search order of the directories
on an MP3 disc. Normally this unit plays back MP3 files in the directories in the recorded order.

DAB TUNER OPERATIONS
2000
D
We recommend that you use DAB (Digital Audio
Broadcasting) tuner KT-DB1500 with your unit.
If you have another DAB tuner, consult your JVC
IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer.
Tuning in to an ensemble and
one of the services
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied with
your DAB tuner.
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.
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.”
Before you start....
Press FM/AM DAB briefly if CD, CD changer or
external component is the current source.
1 Select the DAB tuner.
Each time you press and
hold the button, the DAB
tuner and the FM/AM tuner
are alternately selected.

In addition, each “service”—called “primary
service”—can also be divided into its
components (called “secondary service”).
With the DAB tuner connected with this unit,
you can enjoy these DAB services.
Last received service of the selected band is tuned in.
2 Select the DAB band (DAB1, DAB2
or DAB3).
Note:
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
input level (see page 31).
Each time you press the
button, the DAB band
changes as follows:
DAB1
DAB2
DAB3
Note:
This receiver has three DAB bands (DAB1, DAB2,
DAB3). You can use any one of them to tune in to
an ensemble.

MAINTENANCE
Handling discs
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the
unit in the following cases:
This unit has been designed to play back CDs,
CD-Rs, CD-RWs, CD Texts, and MP3 discs.
• After starting the heater in the car.
• If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In
this case, eject the disc and leave the unit turned
on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.
How to handle discs
When removing a disc from
its case, press down the
Center holder
center holder of the case
and lift the disc out,
holding it by the edges.
• Always hold the disc by
the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs
recorded in audio CD format or in MP3 format.
However, they may not be played back depending
on their characteristics or recording conditions.
• User-edited CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs
(Rewritable) can be played back only if they are
already “finalized.”
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.
• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read
their instructions or cautions carefully.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played
back on this unit because of their disc
characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if
the player’s lens is dirty.
• CD-Rs or CD-RWs are susceptible to high
temperatures or high humidity; so do not leave
them inside your car.
To keep discs clean
A dirty disc may not play
correctly. If a disc does
become dirty, wipe it with a
soft cloth in a straight line
from center to edge.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time.
(This is caused by the fact that the reflectance
of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.)
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.
• 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.
About mistracking:
• Do not use any solvent (for example,
conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner,
benzine, etc.) to clean discs.
Mistracking may result from driving on extremely
rough roads. This does not damage the unit and
the disc, but will be annoying.
We recommend that you stop disc playback while
driving on such rough roads.
