2.Using the TUNING a/s buttons on the front panel, tune into the station you desire.

When you tune into a radio station, TUNED indicator appears in the display. If you tune into an FM station in stereo, then FM STEREO indicator lights up.

The tuner frequency changes in 50 kHz increments for FM and 10 kHz (or 9 kHz) increments for AM.

When tuning into FM stations, you can press the TUNING a/s button continuously for more than 0.5 seconds to scan for an FM station in the direction of the button you pressed (FM auto tuning mode). After you release the button and a station is received in stereo, the scanning stops.

If no FM station can be tuned in automatically:

If the signal is weak or is too noisy, press the FM MODE button to cancel the FM MUTE function. This turns the FM MUTE indicator off and initiates the monaural reception mode. In this mode, noise between stations is audible but sound interruption experienced in the stereo reception mode is removed.

To return to the stereo reception mode, press the FM MODE button so that the FM MUTE indicator lights up.

Receiving RDS (European models only)

When an RDS (Radio Data System) station broadcasting PS (Program Service Name) information is received, the RDS indicator lights up and the name of the station is displayed.

RDS reception is only available on the European models, and only in areas where RDS broadcasts are available.
