Finding a station

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
exact frequency of the station you want to listen to, see
Tuning directly to a station below. Once you are tuned to
a station you can memorize the frequency for recall
later—see Memorizing station presets below for more on
how to do this.
SETUP

band (FM or AM), if necessary.
Each press switches the band between FM and AM.

On the front panel, press SELECT first to switch to the
frequency select mode for (STATION) TUNING +/–.
