Using the sound control memory (SCM)

You can select and store a preset sound adjustment suitable for each playback source

(Advanced SCM).

Selecting and storing the sound modes

Once you select a sound mode, it is stored in memory. It will be recalled every time you select the same source and will be shown on the display.

A sound mode can be stored for each of the following sources—FM1, FM2, FM3, AM, and CD.

•If you do not want to store the sound mode separately for each playback source, but want to use the same sound mode for all the sources, see “Canceling Advanced SCM— SCM LINK” on page 17.

Select the sound mode you want.
