operate the audio system. Turn the
system on by pressing the PWR/

To change bands, press the AM/FM

available.
You can use any of five methods to
find radio stations on the selected
band: TUNE, SEEK, SCAN, AUTO
SELECT, and the preset icons.
TUNE Use the TUNE knob to
tune the radio to a desired frequency.
Turn the knob clockwise to tune to a
higher frequency, or anticlockwise to

SEEK The SEEK function
searches the band for a station with
a strong signal. To activate it, press
and release the SEEK bar (

the SEEK bar you press, the system

finds a station with a strong signal.

SCAN
samples all the stations with strong
signals on the selected band. To

station with a strong signal. When it

station for approximately five
seconds. If you do nothing, the
system will then scan for the next
strong station and play that for five
seconds. When it plays a station that
or you want to continue listening to,
