pre-set memories on the band in use. After entering the stations into memory, the unit will automatically stop at each station for 5 seconds so each can be heard. 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 travelling in a new area where you are not familiar with the local stations.

br STATION PRE-SET MEMORIES

To set any of the 6 pre-set memories in each band, use the following procedure:

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

2. Select the first station to be pre-set using the Automatic Up/Down bm, or Manual Seek bn Tuning Controls.

3. Press and hold the pre-set button to be set for approximately 2 seconds. The pre-set number will appear on the display panel indicating that the station is now set into that pre-set memory position. The station can now be recalled at any time by pressing that button.

4. Repeat the above procedure for the remaining 5 pre-sets on that band and for the other 3 bands on the unit.

bs EQUALIZER (EQ) BUTTON

The EQ button applies preset sound effects to the unit’s audio output signal.The EQ button, when pressed, will activate one of the following operating modes ( CLASSICS, POP M, ROCK M, DSP OFF or FLAT). If the Equalizer function is active, as momentarily displayed on the panel, and the bass and/or treble level is set, the Equalizer function reverts to the the FLAT setting. On the other hand, if the Equalizer function is activated, the bass/treble setting(s) are ignored. Conversely, when the Equalizer function is not active, the unit returns to the user set bass

and treble levels.

When this button is pressed during radio operation, each station in the current band will be scanned in the upward direction; each displayed station will flash for 5 seconds before moving on to the next station. If the local mode is active, only the stronger, nearby stations in the current band will be scanned. When the desired station appears, press the SCN button again to remain on that frequency.

bu LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY PANEL

The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) panel displays the frequency, time and activated functions, including a combination audio level/disc indicator in the form of dual

disc icons ( ) with circular bar graphs depicting the

strength of the audio signal. In addition, the display also contains a receive signal indicator which depicts the relative strength of the incoming broadcast frequency.

NOTE: It is a characteristic of LCD panels that, if subjected to cold temperatures for an extended 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.
