When you release the button, if Auto tuning mode is active, the radio continues to scan until it finds a station of acceptably strong signal quality, and then it stops. In Manual tuning mode, the radio stops immediately at the current frequency.

///Navigation buttons: These buttons are used with an iPod/iPhone to navi- gate its menus, or in Standby mode to adjust the clock or alarm. The /buttons are used for scrolling. Press the button to select the current item, and the button to display the menu or return to the previous menu screen.
