Tuning into weak FM stereo stations

If the signal from a stereo FM station is weak, it may be impossible to get good reception. In this case, switch to manual tuning mode and listen to the station in mono.

2 Within 8 seconds, use the number buttons to enter the frequency of the radio station.

For example, to tune to 87.50 (FM), press 8, 7, 5, 0. If you have entered the wrong number, you can retry after 8 seconds.
