SOUND INJECTION switch and MIC jack ne
Pull the switch toward you when using a mic. Mic sound increased if you turn the
switch clockwise, pulling it toward you. Refer to page 13 for further details.
@ TUNING knob
The TUNING knob selects the desired AM or FM station signal. Adjust tt for max-
imum deflection of the SIGNAL meter as you listen to the sound output from the
speakers. For FM broadcasts also observe the TUNING meter to achieve accurate
reception.
@® FM MUTING switch
This switch silences interstation noise on the FM band, but it may also eliminate the
signal of a weak and distant station along with the interstation noise. Therefore, set
this switch to OFF (by pressing button release} in the reception of a weak and distant
Station.
® —&M DE-EMPHASIS switch
Selects 75s (50s) or 25us FM DE-EMPHASIS for accurate reception of Dolbyized
FM signals. Normally, this switch should be left in the "OUT" (by pressing button
release) position. However, if the station is broadcasting the Dolbyized signal using
a 25us pre-emphasis, first connect the Dolby Decoder to this unit and put this switch
in the "25yus" position to obtain flat FM frequency response. If in doubt. call the sta-
tion.
THEIR FUNCTIONS
@ LOUONESS control
The LOUDNESS control boosts bass and treble tones at low listening levels. Our
ears have less sensitivity to low and high frequencies at low listening levels and the
LOUDNESS control compensates for this deficiency. This control should be switch-
ed off {by pressing buttgn release) when listening at normal and high levels.
(B MONO (Mode switch)
Mixes Jeft and right channels when this push button is "IN" position.
@ REVERSE switch
This push switch reverses positions of channels.
The left channel is now heard from
the right speaker, and the right channel from the left speaker.
QM SIGNAL and TUNING meter

lection indicates best receiving condition.
TUNING meter — This meter is used for precise tuning to the center of an FM
channel. Turn the tuning knob until the meter pointer is in the center of the meter
scale. This provides maximum separation and minimal distortion.
© TONE DEFEAT switch .
