Receiving Radio Broadcasts
Selecting the FM Reception Mode
You can change the FM reception mode while receiving an FM broadcast.
On the front panel only:
TUNER/BAND
1. Press TUNER/BAND so that the Control %/ Þ/ @ /
# buttons work for tuner settings.
The lamp above the button lights up.
2. Press Control %/ Þ until “FM MODE” appears on the display.
3. Press Control @ / # to select either “FM AUTO” or “FM MONO.”
• Normally select “FM AUTO.”
• When an FM stereo broadcast is hard to receive or noisy, select “FM MONO.”
FM AUTO: When a program is broadcast in stereo, you will hear stereo sound; when in monaural, you will hear monaural sounds. This mode is also useful to suppress static noise between stations.
The MUTE AUTO indicator lights up on the display.
FM MONO: Reception will be improved although you will lose the stereo effect. In this mode, you will hear noise while tuning into the stations. The MUTE AUTO indicator goes off on the display.
Note:
You can store the FM reception mode for each preset station.
