If the stereo signal is poor or the receiving conditions are not optimum or if STEREO:MONO automatic switching occurs, it is recommended you switch from STEREO to MONO.

Even when the contents of the receiving signal undergo changes, selection mode is kept intact.

When the receiving conditions deteriorate, listening will be easier if the mode is set to the MONO position, using the stereo / bilingual sound selection button.

DUAL, also known as DUAL MONO or as BILINGUAL is not currently transmitted in some countries.
