CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS
@® LOUDNESS
SWITCH (loudness)
This switch is pressed to create a natural sound quality
when listening at a low volume by boosting the low and
high frequency ranges.
@® AUDIO MODE SWITCH (audio mode)
This switch is used to combine the left and right channels
and create a mono
signal. Usually it is set in the stereo
position (button out). If the FM stereo broadcast station
you are listening to is weak and there is a lot of noise, set
this switch to "mono". The two channels are combined into
a monaural
signal, but the noise
is reduced
for more
comfortable listening.
