Setting RDS interrupt during
recording
The RDS or DAB interrupt function can be
switched on or off during recording using MU-
SIC CATCHER.
∗ The factory default setting is “OFF”.
1. Press and hold the [T] button for 1 second or
longer to switch to the adjustment selection

2. Press the [a] or [d] button and select
“RDS-INT REC”.
3. Turning the [ROTARY] knob clockwise or
counterclockwise and select “ON” or “OFF”.
● ON:
When “ON” is selected, recording is sus-
pended at the occurrence of an RDS inter-
rupt during recording. (The output is switched
to RDS audio.)
● OFF:
When “OFF” is selected, recording continues
even at the occurrence of an RDS interrupt
during recording. (RDS audio is not output.)
Notes:
• At the occurrence of an emergency broadcast
(alarm interrupt), recording is suspended even
when RDS interrupt is set to “OFF”.
• When TEL interrupt is set to “ON”, recording is
suspended even when RDS interrupt is set to
“OFF”. To avoid this, set the “TEL-SWITCH” set-
ting to “OFF” or disconnect the cellular phone
from the unit.
