Using the tuner

Listening to the radio

The following steps show you how to tune in to FM and
AM radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and
manual (step) tuning functions. If you already know the
frequency of the station you want, see

Tuning directly to a

station

below. Once you are tuned to a station you can

memorize the frequency for recall later—see

Saving

station presets

on page 36 for more on how to do this.

1

Press the

TUNER

button to select the tuner.

2

Use the

BAND

button to change the band (FM or

AM), if necessary.

Each press switches the band between FM and AM.

3

Tune to a station.

There are three ways to do this:

Automatic tuning

To search for stations in the currently selected band,
press and hold

TUNE

/

for about a second. The

receiver will start searching for the next station,
stopping when it has found one. Repeat to search for
other stations.

Manual tuning

To change the frequency one step at a time, press

TUNE

/

.

High speed tuning

Press and hold

TUNE

/

for high speed tuning.

Release the button at the frequency you want.

Improving FM stereo sound

If the

TUNED

or

STEREO

indicators don’t light when

tuning to an FM station because the signal is weak, press
the

MPX

button to switch the receiver into mono

reception mode. This should improve the sound quality
and allow you to enjoy the broadcast.

mode can be selected also with the

station you want to listen to. In this case, you can simply

the remote control.
