Radio Scan

You can scan through all of the stations in your reception area.

To start the Scan function:

Press SC briefly.

The scanned frequency or the station name will start flashing in the display.

During the scanning process “SCAN” will appear in the display.

To select a scanned station/switch off the Scan function:

Press SC or the rocker switch briefly.

If no station is selected, the scan function will switch off after the frequency band has run through. The station selected previous- ly will resume play.

Changing the Scan Time

The scan time can be selected from between 5 to a maximum of 30 seconds.

If you would like to alter the scan time, plea- se refer to the section on “DSC programming - SCANTIME”.

Selecting the automatic tuning sensitivity

You can alter the automatic tuning sensiti- vity.

If “lo” is displayed, the radio will only pick up strong, local stations (low sensitivity).

If “lo” does not light up, the radio will also pick up weaker, more distant stations.

If you would like to alter the sensitivity level please refer to the section on “DSC pro- gramming – LO-DX”.

Switching from stereo to mono

(FM)

In the DSC menu, you might get better sound quality by switching from stereo to mono. This can be useful in areas where reception is poor. Each time the radio is switched on, stereo playback is activated automatically.

The unit will automatically switch to mono if the signal received is not strong enough for stereo playback.

If you would like to switch to mono, refer to “DSC programming - STEREO/MONO”.

The mode selected is indicated in the dis- play.

Automatic bandwidth adjust- ment (FM)

In the DSC menu, you can use the SHARX function to adjust the bandwidth in the FM frequency range. This can be a great ad- vantage when there are a large number of stations within your current reception range.

Interference with strong adjacent stations can be reduced to an absolute minimum if you activate SHARX ON.

If necessary, refer to the section on “DSC programming – SHARX”.

PTY - Programme Type

PTY is an RDS service which an increasing number of more broadcasting stations have begun to offer. This feature allows you to select FM stations according to their pro- gramme type. After you have chosen the PTY of your preference, the corresponding stations can be selected either by seek tu- ning or using the scan function.

Switching PTY on/off

Press PTY.

When the function is active, the programme type selected last will appear briefly in the display and as long as PTY is active, “PTY” will appear permanently in the display.
