RDS time synchronisation
Some RDS stations transmit an RDS time signal. If recep-
tion is good, this time information will update the time if
you have selected the »
CT ON
« option.
Time synchronisation can take several minutes, and
even with good reception the accuracy depends on the
time signal being transmitted. The automatic time setting
is always activated when the hi-fi system is switched
from standby mode into tuner mode and receives a suit-
able RDS station (when the system is waiting for an RDS
time signal, »

« flashes. »
¥
« stays lit once RDS time
synchronisation is complete).
