YOU SHOULD KNOW

Remember, if you select a preset and the display shows 108 (FM) or 1720 (AM), there’s no station saved to it.

Saving Stations as Presets - Auto Memory

Auto Memory is an easy way to save stations, but it doesn’t give you control over which stations are saved. Auto Memory automatically looks for stations and saves the first 30 stations it finds as presets 1 – 30. It operates independently for the FM and AM bands.

3Press and hold the Memory button on the front panel or the Mem button on the remote control for over 3 seconds. AUTOMEM will appear in the display for three seconds. After that, <MANUAL> appears in the front panel display during the Auto Memory process.

4The T 3 will scan the entire FM band and start storing stations into preset memory beginning with P 1.

5This procedure will continue until 30 stations have been saved as presets.

6Select AM and repeat to automatically save stations in the AM band.

YOU SHOULD KNOW

You can interrupt the Auto Memory process by pressing the FM-AMbutton on either the remote or the front panel. You can also interrupt Auto Memory by turning off the T 3 from the remote or front panel.
