LISTENING TO THE RADIO

OPERATION

Press the STANDBY/ON button to turn the unit on.

Select the Tuner function by pressing the Tuner button on the panel of the main unit.

Select the desired frequency band that your station is on (FM, AM) with the STOP button on bo- th main unit and remote control.

Tune to the desired radio station by pressing the TUNING FWD/REW buttons on the remote control.

If you hold the TUNING FWD/REW button for more than half a second ,the unit will begin to au- tomatically scan until a strong signal is found or until the TUNING FWD/REW button is

Pressed again.

To turn off the radio, press the STANDBY/ON button to switch the unit into standby mode.

STORING PRESET STATIONS

Tune either automatically or manually (as described in previous sections) to the station to be st- ored.

Press the PROGRAM/MEMORY button on remote control once; "MEMORY" will blink on the display. The display will change for 5 seconds; during this time you must select the desired me- mory location by pressing the M-UP/REPEAT button.

Press the PROGRAM/MEMORY Button to store the station at that location. The unit can store up to 10 FM stations, 10 AM Stations.

TUNING TO A PRESET STATION

Select the desired program number by pressing the MEMORY UP/REPEAT button.

ANTENNA

For FM reception there is a built-in one-meter FM Antenna wire at the rear of the unit.

Unravel the wire and move it around to obtain the best reception. For AM reception, the signals are picked up through the AM loop antenna. You may have to move the loop antenna to obtain the best reception.

HANDLING COMPACT DISCS

To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.

Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc's recorded surface with a soft cloth. Unlike conventional records, compact discs have no grooves to collect dust and microscopic d- ebris so gently wiping with a soft cloth should remove most particles. Wipe in a straight line fro- m the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will have absoultely no effect on reproduction quality.
