Entering Abbreviations
(e.g., station name)
On each station memory location (1 ... 40), a station
name (up to 8 positions) which then is indicated in the
display can be programmed along with the frequency.
This is possible either when storing the frequency or at
a later date. Examples for station names are WARSAW,
HELSINKI, BUDAPEST, etc...
• The entry is initialized with the A - Z button.
• If the hint ＊RDS or ＊ ROM TAB appears after having
pressed this button A - Z, entry of the abbreviation is
inhibited.
• If entry of the name is possible, the radio will continue
to play on the chosen station. The cursor will flash at
the left in the display.
• The TUNE △/▽ buttons allow you to enter letters (A-
Z), figures (0-9), and several special characters.
• Each pressure on the A - Z button moves the cursor
one position to the right for entering the next
character. A longer pressure on the button moves the
cursor to the left thus allowing you to correct a wrong
entry.
• If you wish to enter spaces or less than 8 positions,
use the blank character (between 9 and A).
• After having entered the last position, press the A - Z
button once again. The cursor disappears and the entry
is allocated the station memory location.
•
When pressing the A - Z button once again, the cursor
reappears at the first position, and you can, for example,
correct the entry.
Exiting this function with the CLEAR button:
• The entry is not stored in memory.
When surpassing the timeout of > 15 seconds:
•
The actual entry is automatically stored in memory.
Calling Up Stored Stations
•
Enter the number of the desired station memory
location with the numeric buttons.
• Press the MEMORY button.
- If the called up memory location is not programmed with
a station, the indication ＊ FREE appears for approxi-
mately 2 seconds in the display.
You will still hear the station tuned to before.
- When calling up stored stations with the numeric
buttons, the unit automatically switches to the correct
waveband (Intermix function).
