Press and hold in the keypad's [1(MODE)], [4(STEP)], [7(V/M)], and [F] keys simultaneously, and
turn on the radio while holding them in; the alignment menu will then be activated.
In the alignment procedures, each alignment parameter is selected by pressing the
[ALARM]/[2128] key. Each alignment item is selected by rotating the CH Knob. To store the
alignment parameters when you are satisfied with the adjustment, press the [F] key for longer
than a half second.
Note that a few alignment parameters are not adjustable, and are to be left as set at the factory.
