The Seek function can be stopped by pressing the button again or activating any other tuning function.

bn LOCAL/ILL BUTTON

This feature is used to select the strength of the signals at which the radio will stop during Automatic Seek Tuning. Pressing and holding the button will select the Local setting (LOC will appear on the display panel) and only strong (local) stations will be received. Pressing and holding 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. Each time the button is momentarily pressed and released, the VFD display panel back-lighting intensity will change from low-to- medium-to-high, and then back to low, thereby providing three different intensity settings.

bo FM MONO/STEREO BUTTON (MONO)

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 the ST indication on the display panel when tuned to an FM

stereo signal. If the stereo signal is too noisy for comfortable listening, press the FM Mono/Stereo Selector button to switch to

mono reception (the ST indication will disappear from the display panel). To return to stereo reception mode, press the button again

so that the ST indication appears in the display panel.

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. If no buttons are pressed during the scan, the unit will return to the original station before the scan started.

Pressing and holding the button for longer than 2 seconds will activate the Auto-Store Tuning feature which will automatically scan and enter up to 6 stations into the pre-set memories on the band in use. If you have already set the pre-set memories to your favorite stations, activating the Auto-Store Tuning feature will erase those stations and enter the new ones. This feature is most useful when traveling in a new area where you are not familiar with the local stations.
