Basic Tuner Operation

The AVR’s tuner is capable of tuning AM, FM and FM Stereo broadcast stations and receiving RDS data. Stations may be tuned manually, or they may be stored as favorite station presets and recalled from a 30 position memory.

3.Press the Tuner Mode button Ion the

remote or hold the Band Selector ! on the front panel pressed for 3 seconds to select manual or automatic tuning.

When the button is pressed so that AUTO appears in the Main Information Display ˜ each press of the Tuning Selectors 8Kwill put the tuner in a scan mode that seeks the next higher or lower frequency station with accept- able signal strength. An AUTO ST TUNED indication will momentarily appear when the sta- tion stops at a stereo FM station, and an AUTO TUNED indication will momentarily appear when an AM or monaural FM station is tuned. Press the Tuning buttons again to scan to the next receivable station.

When the button is pressed so that MANUAL appears in the Main Information Display ˜ each tap of the Selector will increased or decrease the frequency by one increment. When the tuner receives a strong enough signal for adequate reception, MANAUL TUNED will appear in the Main Information Display ˜.

Note that for entering num- bers higher than 100 you need to enter only the "1" rather than "10", the first "0" will be added automatically. The desired station will automatically be tuned after the latest number is entered. If you press an incorrect button while entering a direct frequency, press the Clear

button
