Safety Note
To avoid distraction from the vehicle's
operation and the road, it is recom­
mended that the driver NOT perform
any manual tuning operations while
the vehicle is in motion. Use the auto­
matic station search operation or pre­
set stations instead.
Push button tuning
Six FM stations and four AM sta­
tions can be stored in memory
and recalled by pressing the
appropriate buttons marked OB
HQ
EZ3
through
for FM or
through 0 3 for AM stations.
To store stations in memory
Any FM station frequency indicated
on the digital display can be stored on
any button marked EQ through QQ
by depressing the button desired and
holding it until the display has
changed from the " old" setting to a
" blank" and then to the new fre­
quency to be stored.
Showing the " old" setting first allows
for reconsideration of the decision to
store. If it is desirable to leave the
" old" frequency in memory rather
than exchanging it with the " new"
one, quickly release the button. The
" old" frequency will remain in memory.
Any AM station can be stored
similarly on any button marked
through EQ .
Stereo reception
The stereo indicator symbol B B 3 3
lights up if a stereo program is
received.
The radio is equipped with an
automatic stereo/mono switch that
electronically switches to mono for
clear reception if a weak signal is
received. A special circuit provides
for a smooth change-over rather than
a hard sudden switching, thereby
reducing noise and interference.
The stereo indicator will remain lit
even if the receiver has changed to
the mono mode and will turn off at an
antenna signal considered insufficient
to provide acceptable reception
quality.
Important! Although FM is normally
static free, reception can be limited
by geographic and atmospheric con­
ditions, station strength and distance
from transmitter. Buildings or other
obstructions can cause momentary
static, flutter or station swapping. If
good reception cannot be obtained,
tune to a stronger station.
Tape Cassette playback
EZ1
It is recommended to use only good
quality cassettes with a playback time
of not more than 60 to 90 minutes
(C 60) or (C 90).
To start playback, insert a cassette
(tape side first, side " I" or " A " facing
up) through the cassette door. Push
the cassette in until it is locked in its
playing position.
When the end of one playing side is
reached, the unit switches automatic­
ally to reverse for playing the second
track.
The tape track can be selected by
depressing the cassette track switch
button [S 2 l« | ■ The built-in indica­
tors show which track of the cassette
the unit is playing back.

button lr —-" | . The unit will auto­
matically eject the cassette and
switch to radio reception.

ward
