TUNING AUTO/MANUAL switch

mode.
FM MONO selector switch
Use to select the auto stereo mode or monaural mode when
listening to FM broadcasts. The monaural mode has been
selected when the FM MONO indicator is lighted.
Auto stereo mode:
Normally leave in this mode for reception. When a stereo FM
broadcast is received, it will be automatically reproduced in
stereo sound.
Monaural mode:
When receiving distant stations or stations with weak broad-
cast signals, the input signal may be weak, thus resulting in
increased noise during FM stereo broadcasts. In this event,
setting the receiver to the monaural mode will reduce the
noise. In this case, however, FM stereo broadcasts will be
reproduced in monaural sound.
NOTE:
This switch has no effect on reception of AM broadcasts.
TUNING switches (DOWN, UP)
These switches are used to raise or lower the tuning
frequency in the FM or AM band, raise or lower the
channel number memorized in the STATION CALL
switches, and raise or lower the hours and minutes
indication when setting the timer or the time display.
UP : @ The FM or AM band is scanned in the direction
of increasing frequency.
® The STATION CALL switches are scanned in the
direction of increasing switch numbe
(channel).
® The hours and minutes are scanned in the direc.
tion of increasing time.

switch takes place.
