2.To check the station frequency, press the SET/FM MODE Button once and again in order to keep the station in stereo mode. Station frequency will be displayed for about 1 minute and revert to current time again.

3.When listening to an FM station, fully extend the antenna to insure maximum tuner sensitivity.

4.Automatic tuning depends on the signal strength of the broadcasting station, so weak stations are sometimes skipped. Tune manually to find the weak stations. With stronger stations, the tuner may stop before it reaches optimum setting for that station. Adjust manually for the best reception if needed.

5.For FM reception, the Radio provides FM MONO/STEREO selection. In stereo mode, the unit will automatically switch to stereo when a strong FM stereo broadcast is received and will indicate "ST" in the Display.

6.To receive a weaker (noisy) FM station, press the SET/FM MODE Button to switch to MONO mode. The reception may improve, but the sound heard is monaural (MONO).

7.The sound equalization can be adjusted for optimum sound reproduction depending on the style of music you are playing. By pressing the EQ button, you can switch between ROCK, POP, CLASSIC, JAZZ, BASS or NORMAL equalization to suit your taste.
