Presetting Stations
You can preset 30 FM and 15 AM (MW/LW) stations —
using either automatic presetting method or manual
presetting method.
In some cases, test frequencies have been already memorized
for the tuner since the factory examined the tuner preset
function before shipment. This is not a malfunction. You can
preset the stations you want into memory by following the
presetting method.

setting is canceled before you finish, start from step 1
again.
