To listen to an FM stereo broadcast
FM stereo
Set to this position by pressing the TUNER BAND button when listening to or recording an FM broadcast. If an FM stereo broadcast is received, the “STEREO” indicator is lit in the display window, and the FM broadcast can be heard in stereo.
FM mono
Set to this position by pressing the TUNER BAND button if FM stereo reception is noisy. The “MONO” indicator is lit and the sound becomes monaural, but the reception will be improved.
When another station is tuned to in this mode, the “MONO” indicator goes off and the unit returns to FM stereo automatically.
Note:
AM broadcasts are monaural.
Seek tuning (auto tuning)
Press the 4 or ¢button for one second or more. The unit enters the seek tuning mode to tune in the nearest station automatically, so the broadcast can be heard. In AM operation, the frequency moves continuously from the MW to the LW band and vice versa.
Manual tuning
Each time the 4 or ¢ button is pressed, the unit steps through the current frequency band. Tuning is done in steps of 50 kHz for FM and 9 kHz for AM (MW/LW). In AM operation, the tuned frequency moves continuously from the MW
