Presetting buttons
The buttons with symbols from 1 to 6
("17", "16", "15", "12", "11",
"10") make it possible to set the follow-
ing presettings:
– 18 in the FM band (6 in FM1, 6 in
FM2, 6 in FMT)
– 6 in the MW band
– 6 in the LW band
– 6 types of PTY programming (only in
the FM mode when PTY is selected).
To call a preset station, choose the required
frequency band and then press briefly (less
than 1 second) the corresponding preset but-
ton (from 1 to 6). For a few seconds the
display will show the number of the station
preset and the related frequency before
showing the frequency band and the name
of the RDS station.
Storing the last station heard
The radio automatically keeps in storage
the last station heard for each reception
band, which is then tuned when the radio is
turned on or the reception band is changed.

Automatic tuning
Briefly press (less than 1 second) button
"L" (6) or "M" (8) to start automatically
searching the tuning for the next station that
it is possible to receive in the direction cho-
sen.
If button "L" (6) or "M" (8) is pressed
for longer (over 1 second) quick searching
takes place: upon having tuned into the first
well receivable station, the tuner stops for
about 1 second (in Mute) before quick
searching continues. When the button is re-
leased, the tuner stops on the next receiv-
able station.
If the TA function is on (traffic information),
the tuner only searches stations which broad-
cast traffic bulletins.
If the PTY function is on, the tuner only
searches PTY stations. When searching the
display alternatively shows the type of pro-
gramme and the word "SEARCH".
If the station on which the tuner stops is
one of the stations stored with the preset
buttons, the display will show the presetting
number for a few seconds.
Manual tuning
This allows manual station searching in the
chosen band.
– Select the band with button "BN"
(13): FM1, FM2, FMT, MW or LW.
– Briefly and repeatedly press button
"¯¯" (4) or "˙˙" (7).
– Pressing the button longer (over 1 sec-
ond) obtains fast forward searching, which
is stopped when the button is released.
To turn on manual tuning search it is nec-
essary to turn off the PTY and AF (alterna-
tive frequencies) functions, if on.
If the station tuned is a station stored with
the preset buttons, the display will show the
presetting number for a few seconds.
