RDS OPERATIONS  
What you can do with RDS  
RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their  
regular program signals. For example, the station send their station names, as well as  
information about what type of program they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.  
By receiving the RDS signals, 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 (Program Type) search  
TA (Traffic Announcement) search  
And some other functions  
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  
tune in another RDS station, within the same network 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 illustration.)  
Two types of the RDS signals are used to make Network-Tracking Reception work correctly  
— PI (Programme Identification) and AF (alternative Frequency) data.  
Without receiving these data correctly from the RDS station you are listening to, Network-  
Tracking Reception will not operate.  
To use Network-Tracking Reception, press and hold TP/RDS (Traffic  
Programme/Radio Data System) for more than 1 second. Each time you  
TP  
RDS  
press and hold the button, Network-Tracking Reception modes change as  
follows:  
Mode 1  
Mode 2  
9
Mode 1 (AF:on)  
Network-Tracking is activated.  
Switches to another station, within the same network, broadcasting the same  
programme when the receiving signals from the current station become weak.  
Mode 2 (AF:off)  
Network-Tracking is deactivated.  
The same programme can be received on different frequencies.  
Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency E  
Programme 1 broadcasting  
on frequency A  
Programme 1 broadcasting on  
frequency B  
Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency C  
Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency D  
10  
Using Standby Reception  
Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to a programme of your favorite  
programme (PTY: Programme Type) and Traffic Announcement (TA) from the current source  
(another FM station, CD, and other connected components).  
Note:  
Standby Reception will not work if you are listening to an AM station.  
TA Standby Reception

Other convenient RDS functions and adjustments  
Automatic selection of the station when using the number  
buttons  
Usually when you press the number button, the preset station is tuned in.  
However, when the preset station is an RDS station, something different will happen. If the  
signals from that preset station are not sufficient for good reception, this unit starts searching  
another station broadcasting the same programme as the original preset station is broadcasting,  
then if any station broadcasting the same programme is found, the station will be tuned in.  
Changing the display mode while listening to an FM  
station

CD CHANGER OPERATIONS  
We recommend that you use one of the CH-X series (ex: CH-X1200) with your unit.  
If you have another CD automatic changer, consult your JVC car audio dealer for connections.  
For example, if your CD automatic changer is one of the KD-MK series, you need a cord (KS-U15K)  
for connecting it to this unit.  
Before operating your CD automatic changer:  
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied with your CD changer.  
• If no discs are in the magazine of the CD changer or the discs are inserted upside  
down, “NO DISC” will appear on the display. If this happens, remove the magazine and  
set the discs correctly.  
• If “RESET 1 - RESET 8appears on the display, something is wrong with the connection  
between this unit and the CD changer. If this happens, check the connection, connect  
the connecting cord(s) firmly if necessary, then press the reset button of the CD changer.

the case and lift the CD out, holding it by the edges.  
• Always hold the CD by the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.  
When storing a CD into its case, gently insert the CD around the  
center holder (with the printed surface facing up).  
• Make sure to store CDs into the cases after use.  
To keep CDs clean  
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.  
To play new CDs  
New CDs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges.  
If such a CD is used, this unit may reject the CD.  
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point  
pen, etc.  
Moisture condensation  
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 CD and leave the  
unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates.  
CAUTIONS:  
• Do not insert 8cm (3 3/16") CDs (single CDs) into the loading slot. (Such CDs cannot be  
ejected.)  
• Do not insert any CD of unusual shape – like a heart or flower; otherwise, it will cause a  
malfunction.  
• Do not expose CDs 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 CDs.  
About mistracking:  
Mistracking may result from driving on extremely rough roads.This does not damage the  
unit and the CD, but will be annoying.  
We recommend that you stop CD play while driving on such rough roads.
