If your speakers cannot be placed at the same distance
from the listening position
You can adjust the delay time of the speakers. See “Delay
menu (DELAY)” on page 34.
NOTE
• Place the satellite speakers on a flat and level surface.
• The front and center speakers are magnetically shielded to
avoid color distortions on TVs. However, if not installed
properly, they may cause color distortions. So, pay attention
to the following when installing the speakers.
– When placing the speakers near a TV set, turn off the TV’s
main power switch or unplug it before installing the
speakers. Then wait at least 30 minutes before turning on
the TV’s main power switch again.
Some TVs may still be affected even though you have
followed the above. If this happens, move the speakers away
from the TV.
• The surround speakers and the subwoofer are not
magnetically shielded.
If they are located nearby the TV or monitor, it will probably
cause color distortion on the screen. To avoid this, do not
place the speakers nearby the TV or monitor.
• Be sure to place the subwoofer to the TV’s right. If you place
the subwoofer to the TV’s left, keep sufficient distance
between them to prevent the TV screen from appearing
mottled.

• Select “PROGRESS” for the scan mode when connecting the
TV with the component video cord; otherwise, the system
does not output video signals from the component video
jacks. (See page 17.)
• If your TV does not support progressive video input, connect
the center unit to the TV by using the SCART cable. (See “To
connect a TV with the SCART connector” below.)
• If the component video input jacks of your TV are of the
BNC type, use a plug adapter (not supplied) to convert the
pin plugs to BNC plugs.
• The component video signals can be output only when you
select DVD or USB MEMORY as the source to play. (See

Tuner operations

Selecting the FM reception
mode
When the stereo FM program currently tuned in is noisy,
you can change the FM reception mode to improve the
reception.
7While listening to an FM station

Press FM MODE.
The FM reception mode appears on the display window.
Each time you press the button, the FM reception mode
changes.
• AUTO:

between stations.
• MONO:
Reception will be improved although you will lose the
stereo effect. (The MONO indicator lights on the display
window.) In this mode, you will hear noise until you are
tuned in to a station.

Using the Radio Data System
when receiving FM stations
Radio Data System allows FM stations to send an additional
signal along with their regular program signals. For
example, the stations send their station names, as well as
information about what type of program they broadcast,
such as sports or music, etc.
With the system, you can receive the following types of
Radio Data System signals:
PS (Program Service): Shows commonly known station
names.
PTY (Program Type): Shows types of broadcast programs.
RT (Radio Text): Shows text messages the station sends.
Enhanced Other Network: See page 39.
NOTE
• Radio Data System is not available for AM (MW)
broadcasts.
• Radio Data System may not operate correctly if the station
tuned is not transmitting Radio Data System signal properly
or if the signal strength is weak.

See page 36 for button locations.

7 To show the Radio Data System signals information

Press DISPLAY with SHIFT pressed,
while listening to an FM station.
Each time you repeat the procedure, the indication on the
display window changes.

While searching, “PS” appears and then the station names
will be displayed. “NO PS” appears if no signal is sent.
PTY (Program Type):
While searching, “PTY” appears and then the type of the
broadcast program will be displayed. “NO PTY” appears if
no signal is sent.
RT (Radio Text):
While searching, “RT” appears and then text messages the
station sends will be displayed. “NO RT” appears if no
signal is sent.
Frequency:
Station frequency (non-Radio Data System service).
About characters shown on the display window
When PS, PTY, or RT signals appear on the display window,
some special characters and marks may not be displayed
correctly.
NOTE
• If searching finishes at once, “PS”, “PTY”, and “RT” will not
appear on the display window.

Searching for a program by PTY codes
One of the advantages of the Radio Data System service is
that you can locate a particular kind of program from the
preset channels (see page 36) by specifying the PTY codes.

7 To search for a program using the PTY codes
NOTE
• Before you start operation;
– Press FM/AM on the remote control to select an FM
station.

Tuner operations

See page 36 for button locations.

Switching to broadcast program of your
choice temporarily
Another convenient Radio Data System service is called
“Enhanced Other Network”.
This allows the system to switch temporarily to a broadcast
program of your choice (TA, News, and/or Info) from a
different station except in the following cases:
• When you are listening to non-Radio Data System
stations (all AM — MW stations, some FM stations and
other sources).
• When the system is in standby mode.
NOTE
• Before you start operations;
– The Enhanced Other Network function is only applicable
to preset stations.

Press TA/News/Info repeatedly with
SHIFT pressed, until the program
type indicator (TA/News/Info) you
want appears on the display window.
Each time you repeat the procedure, the indicator on the
display window changes.

The program type indicator

TA: Traffic Announcement in your area.
News: News.
Info: Program the purpose of which is to impart advice in
the widest sense.
To stop listening to the program selected by
Enhanced Other Network
Press TA/News/Info repeatedly again so that the program
type indicator (TA/News/Info) goes off from the display
window. The system exits from Enhanced Other Network
standby mode and goes back to the previously selected
station.
When an emergency broadcast (Alarm signal) is sent
from an FM station
The system automatically tunes in to the station and
“ALARM” appears on the display window while the system
receiving the emergency broadcast.
Note that an emergency broadcast cannot be received in the
following cases;
• When you are listening to non-Radio Data System
stations (all AM — MW stations, some FM stations and
other sources).
• When the system is in standby mode.

The TEST signal is used for equipment test — whether
it can receive the Alarm signal correctly
The TEST signal makes the system work in the same way as
the Alarm signal does. If the TEST signal is received, the
system automatically switches to the station broadcasting
the TEST signal.
While receiving the TEST signal, “TEST” appears on the
display window.

7 How the Enhanced Other Network function actually
works
Case 1
If there is no station broadcasting the program you have
selected
The system continues tuning in to the current station.
‘
When a station starts broadcasting the program you have
selected, the system automatically switches to the station.
The indicator of received PTY code starts flashing.
‘
When the program is over, the system goes back to the
previously tuned station, but the Enhanced Other Network
function still remains activated.
Case 2
If the FM station you are listening to is broadcasting the
program you have selected
The system continues to receive the station but the indicator
of received PTY code starts flashing.
‘
When the program is over, the indicator of received PTY
code stops flashing and remains lit, but the Enhanced Other
Network function still remains activated.
NOTE
• In Enhanced Other Network standby mode, if you change the
source to play, Enhanced Other Network standby mode is
canceled temporarily. If you change the source to FM again,
the system returns to Enhanced Other Network standby
mode.
• Enhanced Other Network data sent from some stations may
not be compatible with this system.
• Enhanced Other Network does not function for some FM
stations with Radio Data System service.
• While listening to a program tuned in by the Enhanced Other
Network function, the station does not change even if
another network station starts broadcasting a program of the
same Enhanced Other Network data.
• While listening to a program tuned in by the Enhanced Other
Network function, you can only use TA/News/Info and
DISPLAY (with SHIFT pressed) as the tuner operation
buttons.

“SOME DOS AND DON’TS ON THE SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT”
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any
electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.
Do read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.
Do ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections
between pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Switch off and withdraw the mains plug when making or changing connections.
Do consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.
Do be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is
damaged in any way — switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed
for unattended operation or has a standby mode.
Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family know how to do this.
Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people.
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of
traffic safety. It is illegal to watch television whilst driving.
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume as such use can permanently damage your hearing.
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings.
Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment.
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws — to ensure complete safety always fit
the manufacturer’s approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.
ABOVE ALL
—NEVER let anyone, especially children, push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the case
— this could result in a fatal electrical shock.;
—NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind — it is better to be safe than sorry!
