LISTENING TO THE RADIO

The following steps show you how to tune in to HDFM, HDAM, FM and AM radio
broadcasts using the automatic (search) and manual (step) tuning functions.
1. Press the HDFM, HDAM, AM or FM button on the remote handset or front panel to
select the band.
2. Tune the radio tuner to a station. There are two ways of doing this:
Automatic tuning and saving station.
To search for stations in the currently selected band, press the TUNER SCAN
button on the remote handset. The Cinema 12 will start searching for the next
station, one after another, beginning with the current station, for approximately five
seconds each. Station frequencies will be assigned to station numbers in the
memory.
Manual tuning.
To change the frequency one step at a time, press TUNER SEEK.
3. Saving station presets.
If you often listen to a particular radio station, it's convenient to have the processor
store the frequency for easy recall whenever you decide to listen to that station. This
saves the effort of manually tuning in each time. This processor can memorize up to
99 stations.
Tune to a station you want to memorize.
Press the MEMORY button on the remote and the front panel display will show:
SAVE P00?
Using the numerical keypad section at the top of the remote, press one of the
NUMBER buttons to assign the station preset. For saving stations to selections 1
through 9, you will need to enter them as 01, 02, 03 etc. The Cinema 12 will
automatically save the station.
4. Improving FM stereo sound.
If the TUNED or STEREO indicators do not light when tuning to an FM station due
to a weak signal, press the FM MODE button to switch the processor into mono
reception mode. This should improve the sound quality and allow you to enjoy the
broadcast. An outside antenna or a cable FM connection will improve reception.
5. Listening to station presets.
After setting your preset radio stations, (see saving station presets above if you
haven't done this already) press AM or FM to select the band. Press the number on
the remote control to recall the station preset.
