Saving stations for quick recall

You can save up to 24 station presets so that you always have easy
access to your favorite stations without having to tune in
manually each time.
If the unit is unplugged from the power supply completely, saved
stations will remain for several days, after which you'll have to
save them again.
Note: The following instructions assume that you are already
familiar with tuning into radio stations—see page 30 for detailed
tuning instructions.
Use the front panel controls to do this.
1 Tune into a radio station on either the AM or FM band.
2 Press 7 ST. MEMORY.
The station preset number starts blinking.
3 Use –·1/4 or ¢/¡·+ to select a station preset
number.
There are 24 preset locations; each can store one station preset.
4 Press 7 ST.MEMORY again to save the station preset.

Listening to station presets

1 Press TUNER/BAND to switch to tuner mode.
2 If you're using the front panel controls, press FREQ/
STATION to switch station mode.
This switches the tuner to the preset station mode. If you're using
the remote, there's no need for this step.
3 Use the – 4 and ¢ + buttons to select a station
preset.
If you're using the front panel controls, use
–·1/4 or ¢/¡·+.
If you're using the remote, you can also use the number buttons
to select a station preset directly. For example, to select station
preset 6, press 6; to select 24, press >10, 2, 4.

Changing the frequency step

As its default setting, the tuner jumps in steps of 50 kHz and 9 kHz
when tuning in FM and AM stations respectively. If you find that
this is unsuitable in your area (if you can't tune into stations
successfully), you can change the frequency steps to 100 kHz for
FM and 10 kHz for AM. Here's how to switch the setting:
1 Switch the power into standby.
2 Press and hold FREQ/STATION (front panel only) for
about three seconds.
