bm MANUAL UP/DOWN TUNING (+ / -)

AUTOMATIC SEEK TUNING

Each time the + button is pressed, the radio will tune higher, seeking the next strong station and stop. Similarly, each press of the - button will tune lower and stop at the next strong station. To manually seek a specific sta- tion, press the button of the appropriate direc- tion until the desired frequency is reached.

Pressing either button for longer than 2.0 sec- onds will cause MANUAL to appear on the dis- play. Now when the Up or Down tuning button is pressed momentarily, tuning will occur two frequency steps at a time. If either button is pressed and held in Manual mode for 2 sec- onds, the manual Seek Tuning function is initiated, whereby the radio will tune rapidly in the appropriate direction and stop on, or close to, the desired frequency when the button is released.

If no further tuning is performed after 5 sec- onds, AUTO will appear momentarily on the display, and tuning will revert to the original

tuning mode.

PRE-SET SCAN TUNING (PS)

During radio operation, press this button mo- mentarily to scan the 6 stations in the pre-set memories of the FM band in use. The unit will stop at each pre-set station for 10 seconds before continuing to the next pre-set station (the frequency on the display panel will flash during Pre-Set Scan operation). Press the but- ton again momentarily to stop Pre-Set Scan operation and remain on the selected fre- quency in that band.

Pressing the button for longer than 2 seconds will activate the Auto-Store Tuning feature. The radio will automatically scan the band in use and enter strong stations into the pre-set

memory positions for that band. If you have already set the pre-set memories of that band to your favorite stations, activating the Auto- Store Tuning feature will erase those stations and enter the new strong stations. This feature is most useful when traveling in a new area where you are not familiar with the local stations.

bo STATION PRE-SET MEMORIES

To set any of the 6 pre-set memory buttons, 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 Manual Up/Down or Automatic Seek Tuning Controls bm.

3.Press the pre-set button (1-6) to be set and continue to hold it in. After approxi- mately 2 seconds, the pre-set number will appear on the display panel, indicat- ing 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 re- maining pre-sets on that band and for the other 3 bands on the unit.

bp LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY PANEL FUNCTIONS

The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) panel dis- plays the frequency, time, and all activated func- tions, including five bar graphs which provide a visual representation of the audio signal level. 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 readout will re- turn to normal when the temperature increases to a normal range.
