Memorizing stations automatically
— Best Tuning Memory (BTM)
This function selects from the currently received band the stations with the strongest signals and memorizes them in order of their frequency.
PREVENTING ACCIDENTS!
When tuning in during driving, use the automatic tuning and the memory preset search function instead of the manual tuning.
1 Press (TUNER) repeatedly and select the band.
Each time you press (TUNER), the band changes as follows:
FM1 nFM2 nFM3 nAM1 nAM2
2 Press (BTM) for two seconds.
Notes
•The unit will not store stations with weak band frequencies on the preset number buttons. If there are only a few stations received, some preset number buttons will remain empty.
•When there is a preset number indicated on the display window, the unit will store stations on all preset number buttons from the one currently displayed.
Memorizing only the desired Stations
Up to 6 stations on each band (FM1, FM2, FM3, AM1 and AM2) can be stored on the preset number buttons in order of your choice. Therefore, 18 stations can be memorized on FM.
If you try to store another station on the same preset number button, the previously stored station will be erased.
1 Press (TUNER) repeatedly, and select the band.
2 Press (SEEK/AMS) to search for the station which you wish to store on the preset number button.
3 Press the desired preset number button
((1) to (6)) for two seconds until a beep sounds.
The number of the pressed preset number button appears on the display window.
Receiving the memorized stations
1 Press (TUNER) repeatedly, and select the band.
2 Press the preset number button ((1) to
(6)) momentarily on which the desired station is stored.
Tip
Press either side of (PRESET/DISC) momentarily to receive in order the stations stored in the memory (Preset Search Function).
If FM stereo reception is poor
—Monaural mode
Press (MONO) momentarily.
“MONO” appears on the display.
The sound will improve, but it will become monaural. (The “ST” indication will disappear.)
Changing the displayed items
Each time you press (DSPL), the display item changes as follows:
Frequency ÷Clock
If you can't tune in a preset station
Press either side of (SEEK/AMS) momentarily to search for the station (automatic tuning).
The scanning stops when a station is received. Press either side of the button repeatedly until the desired station is received.
Note
If the automatic tuning stops too frequently, press
(LCL) momentarily to display the “LCL” (local seek mode) indication. Only the stations with relatively strong signals can be tuned in.
Tip
If you know the frequency, press and hold either side of (SEEK/AMS) until the desired station is received (manual tuning).
