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 the next

page for more on how to do this.

1

Press

TUNER

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.
