(AUTOBETICAL)
(Models of area code CEL, CEK 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".

Press ?/1 to turn off the receiver.

Hold down MEMORY and press ?/1 to
turn the receiver back on.
"AUTO-BETICAL SELECT" scrolls 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, "FINISH" 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.

to store stations in your new area.

• 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.
