Listening to the Radio

You can store up to 30 of your favorite radio stations as presets for quick selection. Stations can be preset auto- matically using the Auto Preset function or manually.

Notes:

You can preset up to 30 FM/AM stations. If you try to store more than this, the message “FULL” will appear on the display.

Using the remote controller while listening to an AM radio station may cause interference.

If the power cord is disconnected, or the power is off for more than 2 weeks, the preset settings may be lost, in which case, you’ll need to store them again.

Presetting All Stations Automatically (Auto Preset)

With the Auto Preset function, you can search and store all of the radio stations available in your area in one go.

Notes:

All existing presets will be replaced when the Auto Preset function is used.

Be sure that your antennas are positioned so as to obtain the best possible reception (see page 12).

Presetting Stations Manually

Here you can tune into stations individually and store them as presets. This allows you to store stations in any order you like.

Notes:

You can store up to 30 stations, and this can be any combination of FM and AM stations. For example, 17 FM stations and 13 AM stations, or 8 FM stations and 22 AM stations.

Although the numbering schemes for FM and AM presets both start at 1, it doesn’t matter because FM and AM presets are selected independently.

Stations can be stored to presets in any order. For example, you could store some AM stations to presets 2, 1, 9, and so on.
