OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

bqAUTO-STORETUNING(AS) PRE-SET SCAN TUNING (PS)

Press this button momentarily to scan the 6 sta- tions in the pre-set memories of the band in use. The unit will stop at each pre-set station for 5 seconds before continuing to the next pre-set station (the pre-set number on the display panel will flash during Pre-Set Scan operation). Press the button again momentarily to stop Pre-Set Scan operation and remain on the selected frequency.

Pressing the button for longer than 2 seconds will activate the Auto-Store Tuning feature. The radio will automatically scan the band in use and enter strong stations into the pre-set memory positions for that band. If you have already set the pre-set memories of that band to your favorite stations, activating the Auto-Store Tuning feature will erase those stations and enter the new strong stations. This feature is most useful when travelling in a new area where you are not familiar with the local stations.

br STATION PRE-SET MEMORIES

1.Turn the unit on and select the desired band.

2.Select the first station to be pre-set using the ManualUp/Down bm & bnor Automatic Up/ DownSeekTuningfunctionsbo&bp.

3.Press the pre-set button to be set and continue to hold the button in. The volume will be momentarily muted and then return and the pre-set number will appear on the display panel. The station is now set into the memory of that pre-set button and can be re-called at any time by momentarily pressing that button.

4.Repeat the above procedure for the remaining 5 pre-sets on the band in use and for the other 4 bands of the unit.

bs LOCAL/DISTANT - FM STEREO/MONO SELECTOR (MO/LO)

This button is used to select the strength of the signals (Local or Distant) at which the radio will stop during Automatic Seek Tuning on the AM and FM bands as well as FM Stereo or Mono reception modes.

Press the button to select the Local setting (“LOC”

will appear on the display panel) and only strong (local) stations will be received during Automatic Seek Tuning. Pressing the button again will select the Distant setting (“LOC” will disappear from the display panel) and the radio will stop at a wider range of signals, including weaker (more distant) stations.

During FM radio operation, this button is used to select mono or stereo reception of the broadcast signal. Under normal reception conditions, the unit should be left in the stereo mode, as indicated by “ST” on the display panel when listening to an FM stereo signal. If the stereo signal is too weak for comfortable listening, press the button to switch to mono reception (the “ST” will disappear from the display panel and “MONO” will appear). To return to the stereo reception mode, press the button again so that the “MONO” indication disappears and the “ST” indication returns.

bt LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY PANEL

The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) panel displays the frequency, time, and activated functions.

NOTE: It is a characteristic of LCD panels that, if subjected to cold temperatures for an e x - tended period of time, they may take longer to illuminate than under normal conditions. In addition, the visibility of the numbers on the LCD may slightly decrease. The LCD read-out will return to normal when the temperature increases to a normal range.

buDISCSLOT

With the label surface facing up, gently insert the disc into the slot until the soft-loading mechanism engages and disc play begins. The DISC indica- tion, track number and elapsed time will appear on the display panel.

NOTE: This unit is designed for play of standard 5" (12cm) Compact Discs ONLY. Do not attempt to use 3" (8cm) CD-Singles in this unit, either with or without an adaptor, as damage to the player and/or disc can occur. Such damage will not be covered by the Warranty on this product.
