• You may get digital noise when a LD or CD player
compatible with DTS is playing an analog signal. To
prevent noise, make the proper digital connections
(page 13) and set the signal input to C1/O1 (digital).
• Some DVD players don't output DTS signals. For more
details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with your
DVD player.
• This product is not compatible with DSD decoding.
Set the output setting on the player to PCM when playing
SACD on a player compatible with SACD. See the player's
instruction manual for details.

Listening to the radio

The following steps show you how to tune in to FM and AM
radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and manual
(step) tuning functions. Once you are tuned to a station you
can memorize the frequency for recall later—see Saving
station presets on page 19 for more on how to do this.

There are three ways to do this:
Automatic tuning
To search for stations in the currently selected band,
press and hold TUNE / for about a second. The
receiver will start searching for the next station, stopping
when it has found one. Repeat to search for other
stations.

To change the frequency one step at a time, press
TUNE /.
High speed tuning
Press and hold TUNE / for high speed tuning.
Release the button at the frequency you want.

Improving FM sound

If the TUNE or ST indicators don't light when tuning to an FM
station because the signal is weak, set the receiver to the
mono reception mode.
 Press BAND to select FM MONO.
This should improve the sound quality and allow you to enjoy
the broadcast.
