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 35 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.

Tuning directly to a station

Sometimes, you’ll already know the frequency of the
station you want to listen to. In this case, you can simply
enter the frequency directly using the number buttons on
the remote control.

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

Press D.ACCESS (Direct Access).

4

Use the number buttons to enter the frequency of

the radio station.

For example, to tune to

106.00

(FM), press

1

,

0

,

6

,

0

,

0

.

If you make a mistake halfway through, press

D.ACCESS

twice to cancel the frequency and start over.

Saving station presets

If you often listen to a particular radio station, it’s
convenient to have the receiver store the frequency for
easy recall whenever you want to listen to that station.
This saves the effort of manually tuning in each time. This
receiver can memorize up to 30 stations, stored in three
banks, or classes (A, B and C) of 10 stations each. When
saving an FM frequency, the

MPX

setting (see page 35) is

also stored.

Tune to a station you want to memorize.

See

Listening to the radio

on page 35 for more on this.

Press T.EDIT (TUNER EDIT).

The display shows

STATION MEMORY

, then a blinking

memory class.

3

Press CLASS to select one of the three classes then

press ST

/

to select the station preset you want.

You can also use the number buttons to select a station
preset.

4

Press

.

After pressing

, the preset class and number stop

blinking and the receiver stores the station.
