Tuning in stations

The tuner can receive both FM and AM broadcasts, and lets you
memorize your favorite stations so you don’t have to manually
tune in every time you want to listen.

Press repeatedly to switch between FM and AM.
2 Tune to a station.
There are three tuning modes —step, auto, and high-speed:
Step tuning: Press 1 or ¡ repeatedly to step through
the frequency in either direction (front panel:
– · 1 /4 and ¢ /¡ · + )
Auto tuning: Press and hold 1 or ¡ until the frequency
display starts to move, then release. The tuner will stop on the
next station it finds. Repeat to search for other stations.
High-speed tuning: Press and hold 1 or ¡ until the
frequency display starts to move rapidly. Keep the button held
down until you reach the frequency you want. If necessary, fine
tune the frequency using the step tuning method.
When you’re tuned into a station, the tuned indicator (
)
lights in the display.

) lights.

Improving poor FM reception

If you’re listening to an FM station in stereo but the reception is
weak, you can improve the sound quality by switching to mono:

reception mode. Press again to switch back to auto-stereo mode
