Listening to Radio, Manual Tuning | Emerson RS1008 specs

LISTENING TO RADIO

Reminder: Unless otherwise specified you may use the controls on the touch panel display or on the remote control to perform all of the following operations.

1.) Press the POWER button to turn the Receiver/CD Player unit ‘On’. The touch panel display lighting turns on. Also press the Subwoofer POWER button, on the Subwoofer only, to turn the Subwoofer ‘On’if necessary.

2.) Press the TUNER/BAND button to select the Tuner function if necessary. An AM or FM radio frequency will appear on the display. If necessary press the TUNER/BAND button again to switch between AM and FM bands.

3.) Press the or buttons to tune to the frequency of your desired station as follows:

• Manual Tuning

Repeatedly press the or buttons until the display shows the frequency of the desired station. Use this method when tuning in weak or distant stations. If the you tune to an FM Stereo station the ST indicator will appear in the display.

• Automatic Tuning

Depress the or buttons until the display begins to move, then release the buttons. The tuner will search up or down for the next strong station and stop on that station. Repeat this procedure until the tuner stops on the desired station.

4.) Adjust the main VOLUME, EQ, X-BASS, and Subwoofer VOLUME controls as desired.

5.) When you are finished listening press the POWER button to shut the system ‘Off’. The touch panel display lighting goes off and the display again shows the correct time.

Note: It is not necessary to manually shut off the Subwoofer power each time you switch the main power off. However if you do not plan to use the system again for a long period of time it is recommended to manually switch the Subwoofer power ‘Off’.

Note: The system will remember the last station you were listening to before you shut the power off, plus the volume level, EQ setting, X-Bass setting and FM mode setting. It will automatically return to the same station and same setting when the power is switched ‘On’again.

Antenna Information

Make sure that the lead wire FM Antenna, attached to the FM Antenna screw terminal on the back panel of the Receiver/CD Player unit, is fully unwound and allowed to hang freely down from the back of the unit.

The AM ferrite bar antenna is located inside the cabinet of the Receiver/CD Player unit. If AM reception is unsatisfactory try repositioning the center stand slightly until the built in AM antenna is picking up the strongest signal.
