REMOTE CONTROL UNIT____________
• Insert as indicated two batteries, type R6, UM3 or
AA (fig. 2).
• Operate the remote control unit by pointing it
towards the apparatus and pressing the button
required.
• The MUTE button is not present on the apparatus,
its function is to allow you to switch off the sound.
Press again to switch the sound on again.
• Switch on the set with POWER switch ©.
• Set the FUNCTION selector ©to RADIO.
• Adjust the sound with the controls VOLUME ©f@,
BALANCE @ and GRAPHIC EQUALIZER ®.
• Select the wave band using the BAND selector ©
The radio display © shows the selected wave band
'FM'. 'MW (Medium Wave) or 'LW (Long Wave) and
the frequency in 'MHz' (for FM) or 'kHz' (for MW and
LW). (LWnot on all versions).
- For FM, pull out the telescopic aerial. To improve
FM-reception, incline and turn the aerial. Reduce
its length if the FM-signal is too strong (very close
to a transmitter).
You may also push-in the telescopic aerial and
connect an external FM-aerial with an impedance
of 75 Ohms (or the Community or Cable Antenna
system) to the EXT. ANTENNA socket© (not on all
versions).
- For AM/MW and LW (Medium and Long Wave), the
set is provided with a built-in aerial, so there is no
need to use the telescopic aerial. The aerial can
be directed by turning the whole set.
• In case of FM-reception, set the FM MONO/STE-
REO selector ® to the desired position.
• Tune automatically, manually or by means of the
PRESET-buttons © 'P1'...'P5' to a radio station.
Automatic tuning
• Keep TUNING © V or A pressed until the
displayed frequency keeps on changing; then re­
lease the button. The receiver stops when finding a
strong transmitter.
• If the transmitter found is not the desired one,
simply repeat this operation.
Manual tuning
Manual tuning is useful when you already know the
frequency of the desired transmitter (e.g. from your
programme guide).
• Keep TUNING © V or A pressed until you
approach the required frequency.
• Then release the button and press it again quickly
and briefly: then the displayed frequency stops.
• Then press TUNING V or A briefly each time. In
this way the frequency is changed step-by-step until
finally the right frequency has been reached. One
step is 0.05 MHz (50 kHz) on FM. 9 or 10 kHz on MW
and 1 kHz on LW.
• When the FM STEREO indicator ^ lights up.
you are receiving a FM-stereo transmitter. A disturb­
ing noise, due to a weak FM-stereo signal, can be
suppressed by setting the FM MONO/STEREO
selector ©to FM MONO. The FM STEREO indicator
© ^ will then go out and you will hear (and record)
the FM programme in mono.
• Always switch off the set after use with POWER
switch ©.
