For Automatic Tuning

Press and hold TUNING –/+ buttons for about one second, then
release.

The tuner starts searching the selected band and stop automat-
ically at the first station it locates. Repeat to locate other
stations.

For Manual Tuning

• To change frequencies one step at a time, press TUNING –/+

buttons repeatedly.

• To change frequencies quickly, hold down TUNING –/+

buttons and release when you reach the frequency you
desire.

5 Adjust the MASTER VOLUME buttons on

the remote control or the MASTER VOLUME
on the front panel.

MPX Mode

If the TUNED or STEREO indicators do not light when tuning an FM
station, because the station is too far away or the broadcast signal is
weak, press MPX button on the remote control or front panel to switch
to MONO reception. This should improve reception enough for you to
enjoy the broadcast.
