Storing FM stations
automatically

— AUTOBETICAL

(Models of area code CEL only)

This function lets you store up to 30 FM and FM
RDS stations in alphabetical order without
redundancy. Additionally, it only stores the
stations with the clearest signals.
If you want to store FM or AM stations one by
one, see "Presetting radio stations".
1
Press ?/1 to turn off the receiver.
2
Hold down MEMORY/ENTER and press
?/1 to turn the receiver back on.
"Autobetical select" appears in the display
and the receiver scans and stores all the FM
and FM RDS stations in the broadcast area.
For RDS stations, the tuner first checks for
stations broadcasting the same program,
then stores only the one with the clearest
signal. The selected RDS stations are sorted
alphabetically by their Program Service
name, then assigned a 2-character preset
code. For more details on RDS, see
page 28.
Regular FM stations are assigned 2-
character preset codes and stored after the
RDS station.
When done, "Autobetical finished" appears
in the display momentarily and the receiver
returns to the normal operation.
Notes
• Do not press any button on the receiver or supplied
remote during autobetical operation, except ?/1.
• If you move to another area, repeat this procedure to
store stations in your new area.
• For details on tuning the stored stations, see "Tuning
to preset stations".
• If you move the antenna after storing stations with
this procedure, the stored settings may no longer be
valid. If this happens, repeat this procedure to store
the stations again.
