Owner's Manual Conventions

To indicate a key, button, knob or other physical control, we
print the label in BOLD UPPER CASE. To indicate an LCD
(display) label, option, or selection, we use UPPER or Lower
Case italic labels such as MENU, 5 Seconds, Channel 06.
Occasionally we indicate an option as (default). This means
that the option is set in the manner indicated at the factory
and is the setting when you fi rst apply power. If you choose
not to alter it, the default is the setting used by the radio.
