Pressing either side of the button for longer than 0.5 seconds and then releasing will activate the Automatic Seek Tuning function in the selected direction. The radio will seek the next available station and stop at that frequency. The Seek function can be stopped by pressing the button again or activating any other tuning function.

Pressing either side of the button for longer than 0.5 seconds will cause the radio to continue tuning rapidly in the selected direction until the button is released, at which point it will seek to the next available station.

blLOCAL/DISTANT SELECTOR (LO/DX)

This feature is used to select the strength of the signals at which the radio will stop during Automatic Seek Tuning. Momentarily pressing the button will select the Local setting (“LOC” will appear on the display panel) and only strong (local) stations will be received. Momentarily pressing 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.

bmSTATION 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 Manual Up/Down or Automatic Seek Tuning Controls 9 .

3.Press the pre-set button to be set and continue to hold it in. After approximately 2 seconds, the display will flash, the

volume will be momentarily muted and the pre-set button number (P1, P2, etc.) will momentarily 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 2 bands on the unit.

bnLIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY PANEL

The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) panel displays the frequency, time, and activated functions.

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.

boCASSETTE DOOR

Hold the cassette with the exposed tape edge to the right and insert it into the cassette door. Depress fully until the cassette is engaged and begins playing as shown by the tape direction indication on the display panel. When the cassette reaches the end on the side of the tape being played, the unit will automatically change direction of play as shown by the direction arrow and play the other side of the cassette.

NOTE: Observe cassette operation Cautions in the Care and Maintenance section of this manual.
