Ô Numeric Buttons: Use these
buttons to enter or recall stations
from the tuner memory (see page
18).
Surround Mode: Press this but-
ton to select the desired surround
listening mode (see page 16).
Ò Center Boost: Press this button
to increase the level of the centre
channel output + 4 dB above that of

dialogue intelligibility. A red LED will
illuminate above the button when the
circuit is engaged (see page 15).

Û Contour: Press this button when
listening at low levels to activate
special circuits that compensate for
the response of the human ear at

control to raise or lower the volume.
Note that this is a motorized control,
and when the volume is changed

any of the Tuning buttons Ú or
››  / ‹‹
i on the remote is
pressed. All weaker stations will be
muted, if tuned manually, do NOT
open the volume too much in this
case.

letters RDS appear in the lower left
corner of the Information Display,
the tuner will automatically search
stations transmitting RDS data only.
Press the button until the RDS and
AUTO lights go out to step tune
through each frequency increment
and to tune all stations without any
muting. This also compensates for
weak stereo signals by changing the
reception to mono (see pages
17/18).

in use, press this button to select
the type of RDS information to be
displayed or to turn the display off
