on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that
may block the ventilation openings; or if
placed in a built-in installation, such as a
bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow
of air through the ventilation openings, there
should be free space of at least 5 cm (2 in.)
and an opening behind the appliance.
A. The power-supply cord or the plug has
been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been
spilled into the appliance; or
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain;
or
D. The appliance does not appear to operate
normally or exhibits a marked change in
performance; or
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the

marked on the appliance.
19. Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an
outside antenna is connected to the receiver,
be sure the antenna system is grounded so
as to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built up static charges. Article 810
of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,
provides information with regard to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting
structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an
antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna-discharge
unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode. See
Figure 1.
11. Polarization – If the appliance is provided
with a polarized plug having one blade wider
than the other, please read the following
information: The polarization of the plug is a
safety feature. The polarized plug will only fit
the outlet one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the outlet, try reversing it. If there is
still trouble, the user should seek the services
of a qualified electrician. Under no
circumstances should the user attempt to
defeat the polarization of the plug.
12. Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply
cords should be routed so that they are not
likely to be walked on or pinched by items
placed upon or against them, especially near
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the appliance.

Precautions
1. Warranty Claim
For U.S. model
Note to CATV system installer:
You can find the serial number on the rear panel of
this unit. In case of warranty claim, please report this
number.
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system
installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC,
ANSI/NFPA 70, which provides guidelines for proper
grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable
ground shall be connected to the grounding system
of the building, as close to the point of cable entry
as practical.
2. Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and
rear panels and the cabinet with a soft cloth. For
heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in a weak solution
of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and
wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with
a clean cloth. Do not use rough material, thinners,
alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths since
these could damage the finish or remove the panel
lettering.

Operation
Setting the Clock
The ”ACCUCLOCK“ features an automatic clock 5. The clock starts running.
adjusting function automatically sets the clock time
on the tuner by means of RDS broadcast signals.
• The “ACCUCLOCK” feature is available only on
the European model, and only in areas where
RDS broadcasts are available.
• It may take about 5 minutes for the time infor-
mation to be received and displayed.
6. After the clock is initially set, it will be
adjusted periodically when the tuner unit
is in STANDBY mode.
• Adjust the clock as explained in “Setting the
clock manually” on page 14 if you are using a
model U.S. and Canadian models or if you are
using the unit in the area where RDS broadcasts
are unavailable.
Notes on using the “ACCUCLOCK” function:
• Make sure that your FM antenna has been
properly connected as explained on page 10. It is
strongly recommended that you install an outdoor
FM antenna since the FM indoor antenna may
not receive RDS broadcasts well enough to allow
ACCUCLOCK to function properly.
• The clock will display the time in a 24 hour cycle.
For example, 5:30 pm will be displayed as
“17:30”. (You can select a 12 hour cycle display
setting. For more information, see page 15.)
• If RDS signals cannot be received, no RDS station
will be found.
Setting the clock automatically
(European models only)
ACCUCLOCK starts operating as soon as the
power cord is plugged in. It then searches for an
RDS broadcasting station which regularly sends
time signals and waits to receive such time
information. The tuner should be in STANDBY
mode until the clock setting is complete.
The following steps describe how to set the clock
automatically:
Or if an RDS signal is present but the signal is
not strong enough to allow the ACCUCLOCK
to automatically set the time, “- -:- -” will lit on
the display as shown below. If this occurs, set
the clock manually. (See page 14.)

What is RDS?
Many FM stations now transmit RDS signals which
contain additional information. RDS provides you
with various services so that you can choose a
station broadcasting your favorite categories of
music or other information. The information below
is available through the T-405TX.
When RT is received, it can sometimes take
between a few seconds and 15 seconds (more or
less) to display.
Sometimes the following messages will be shown
on the display.
WAIT: This message indicates that it requires more
time to receive the RT information. When the
information is received, the characters will scroll
across the display.
PS: Program Service Name
