6 BASIC RADIO OPERATION continued
TUNING KNOB
The TUNING knob control (28) is located on the right
side of the radio. Use it to 'fine-tune' stations or as
you would a tuning knob.
LOCKING THE TUNING KNOB
To prevent accidentally tuning off of the radio
station, the tuning knob can be locked while the
radio is turned on. To lock it, press and hold the TUN-
ING MODE button for about three seconds. Notice
that the key-lock symbol flashed twice in the lower
right side of the display. The tuning knob is now
locked. If turned, the frequency does not change
and the key-lock symbol flashes. To unlock it, press
the TUNING MODE button for about three seconds.
TUNING MODE – FAST TUNING – SLOW TUNING
The TUNING MODE button (8) allows selection of
fast or slow tuning when using the tuning knob
or the UP/HOUR and DOWN/MIN controls. FAST or
SLOW appear in the display. When tuning with the
tuning knob (28), fast tuning is usually appropriate.
When tuning with the UP/HOUR and DOWN/MIN
buttons, use slow tuning to tune in stations and
fast tuning to move up or down frequency at a rapid
rate. Then use slow to actually tune in stations.
Experiment with this control to see which tuning
mode that you prefer.
USING THE BANDWIDTH
BUTTON
The BANDWIDTH button (14) is used when
listening to AM and SW stations. Its purpose is to
help minimize interference. The preferred setting is
WIDE, which provides best audio fidelity. Use NAR-
ROW when there is interference. W or N will appear
in the display.
USING THE SW IF SET
CONTROL
The SW IF SET control (13) shifts the intermediate
frequency oscillator, which may help to minimize
interference. This functions both for AM and short-
wave. When activated, pIF shows in the display.
CANCELLING TUNE-MUTE
The tune-mute cancellation capability makes the
E10 'feel' more like an analog tuned radio, even
though it's a high-tech digital tuner. The difference
is somewhat subtle and is mainly noticeable in slow
tuning mode using the tuning knob. Note that it may
be difficult for some to actually hear the difference.
For those who can hear the difference, tuning may
sound somewhat 'smoother' when using the tuning
knob. To cancel Tune-Mute, press/release the SYS-
TEM SET button, then the TUNING MODE button.
The display will read OFF. The Tune-Mute feature is
now cancelled. To reactivate, do the same and the
display will read ON.
