Radio operation

All radio functions can be operated by the remote.You shouldn't need to lower the front panel flap.

Tuning-in a new radio station

Pressing BAND selects radio operation. The display indicates the tuning frequency, and just to the right of it, the band: FM, or AM. Repeatedly pressing BAND changes the band.

Having selected the required band, tune-in to a radio station in either of the following ways:

￿To search up or down the band for a station, hold in + or - for two seconds then release.

￿To change frequency one step at a time, repeatedly press and release + or - .

You can keep any new station you've tuned-in by storing it in the memory (see below.)

Note–For best FM reception, position the trailing FM antenna wire for least interference. (Note if AM reception is poor, you may need to rotate the unit.)

Storing radio stations in memory

You can store up to 20 radio stations on each band.

1.Tune in to the station you wish to store (as described above).

2.Decide on the memory number you will use for this station, for example 2.
