For Automatic Tuning
Press and hold TUNING –/+ for about one second,
then release.
The tuner starts searching the selected band and stop
automatically at the first station it locates. Repeat to
locate other stations.
For Manual Tuning
• To change frequencies one step at a time, press
TUNING –/+ repeatedly.
• To change frequencies quickly, hold down TUNING
–/+ and release when you reach the frequency you
desire.
4 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 on the remote
control or front panel to switch to MONO reception. This
should improve reception enough for you to enjoy the
broadcast.
