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.

TUNE
1 Press the TUN button on the remote
control to select the tuner.
You can also use the
MULTI JOG/INPUT
SELECTOR dial on the front panel.
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(/RETURN)
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 TUN button on the remote
control to select the tuner.
You can also use the
MULTI JOG/INPUT
SELECTOR dial on the front panel.
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.
