Tips
•To improve broadcast reception, adjust the supplied antennas, or connect a commercially available external antenna.
•When an FM stereo program has static noise, press FM MODE repeatedly until “MONO” appears. There will be no stereo effect, but the reception will improve.
•Press TUNING MODE repeatedly until “AUTO” appears in step 3 above, then press – or + (or turn TUNING operation dial on the unit). The frequency indication changes and scanning stops when the system tunes in a station (Automatic Tuning).
•To record the radio programs, use manual recording (page 20).
