AM/FM/WB
(Weather Band)
Pressing
the
[
)
button causes "AM",
"FM"
or
"WB"
to
appear
on
the display.
The
currently
tuned frequency
is
also displayed
when
AM
or
FM
is
selected.
"WB"
indicates
that
the
WB
band
is
selected,
and a weather broadcast
frequency
is
automatically
tuned without display
of
the
frequency. A "beep" sounds
if
there are
no weather band
broadcasts
available for
reception.
Manual
tuning
and
seek
tuning operations using the tuning lever
can be
employed
to
change
to
a frequency other than the
one
automatically tuned.
2.
MANUAL/SEEK
TUNING
The
tuning
lever
employs
2-step operation.
Raising
or
lowering
the lever
one
step
is
used
for
manual
tuning.
Raising the
lever
increases the frequency, while lowering
the lever decreases the frequency. Raising or lowering
the tuning
lever
two steps
(as far
as
it
will
go) activates the
seek
tuning
operation.
Raising the
lever
automatically
tunes
and
locks
onto
the next higher receivable broad-
cast frequency, while lowering the lever
tunes and
locks
onto the
next
lower receivable broadcast frequency.

manual
switching.
6.
FM

will
occasionally
exhibit
hissing
and
flutter-
ing
