Listening to FM and AM Broadcasts

Tuning in a Station

On the unit ONLY:
1
Press FM/AM.
The unit automatically turns on and tunes in
the previously tuned station (either FM or
AM). (For MX-J300 only, the Powered
Rolling Panel automatically opens.)
• Each time you press the button, the band alternates
between FM and AM.
2
Press and hold TUNING – / + for
more than 1 second.
The unit starts searching for stations and
stops when a station of sufficient signal
strength is tuned in.
If a program is broadcast in stereo, the ST (stereo)
indicator lights up.
To stop during searching, press TUNING – / +.
When you press TUNING – / + briefly and repeatedly
The frequency changes step by step.
To change the FM reception mode
When an FM stereo broadcast is hard to receive or
noisy, press FM MODE on the remote control so
that the MONO indicator lights up on the display.
Reception improves.
To restore the stereo effect, press FM MODE again so that
the MONO indicator goes off.
In this stereo mode, you can hear stereo sounds when a
program is broadcast in stereo.

Presetting Stations

You can preset 30 FM and 15 AM stations.
In some cases, test frequencies have been already memorized
for the tuner since the factory examined the tuner preset
function before shipment. This is not a malfunction. You can
preset the stations you want into memory by following the
presetting method.
• There is a time limit in doing the following steps. If the
setting is canceled before you finish, start from step 1
again.
1
Tune in the station you want to preset.
