9AM/FM BAND SELECTOR (BND)

AUTO-STORE TUNING (AS)

MODE SELECTOR

During radio operation, each momentary press of this button will change the radio band. The indication “AM”, “FMI”, or “FMII” will appear on the display panel according to your selection.

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

Momentary presses of this button are also used to select the audio source or mode in play. During tape play, it can be used to change to radio mode without ejecting the cassette ( IN indication will remain on display panel to show that a cassette is still loaded in the unit). Similarly, it can be used to go back to tape mode from radio play. If an optional CD changer is connected to the unit, this button is also used to select CD changer operation as described in cq.

bm AUTOMATIC SCAN TUNING

During radio operation, press this button to scan the stations on the band in use, stopping at each one for 5 seconds before continuing to the next station (the frequency on the display panel will flash during Scan mode operation). When a desired station is reached, press the button again to stop the Scan function and remain on the selected frequency. Scan mode will also be canceled by activating any other tuning function.

bn LOCAL/DISTANT SELECTOR (LO/DX)
