Storing the strongest broadcast frequencies

BSM (best stations memory) lets you automa- tically store the six strongest broadcast fre- quencies under preset tuning buttons 1 to 6. Once stored you can tune in to those frequen- cies with the touch of button.

!Storing broadcast frequencies with BSM may replace broadcast frequencies you have saved using buttons 1 to 6.

1Use MULTI-CONTROL to select BSM in the function menu.

2Press MULTI-CONTROL to turn BSM on. Six strongest broadcast frequencies will be

stored in the order of their signal strength.

# To cancel the storage process, press MULTI-CONTROL again.

3Use MULTI-CONTROL to select the de- sired station.

Turn to change the station; press to select.

# You can also change the station by pushing MULTI-CONTROL up or down.

Selecting alternative frequencies

When the tuner can’t get good reception, the unit automatically search for a different sta- tion in a same network.

1Use MULTI-CONTROL to select AF in the function menu.

2Press MULTI-CONTROL to turn AF on.

#To turn AF off, press MULTI-CONTROL again.

Notes

!Only RDS stations are tuned in during seek tuning or BSM when AF is on.

!When you recall a preset station, the tuner may update the preset station with a new fre- quency from the station’s AF list. No preset number appears on the display if the RDS data for the station received differs from that of the originally stored station.

!Sound may be temporarily interrupted by an- other program during an AF frequency search.

!AF can be turned on or off independently for each FM band.

Tuning in strong signals

Local seek tuning lets you tune in only those radio stations with sufficiently strong signals for good reception.

1Use MULTI-CONTROL to select LOCAL in the function menu.

2Press MULTI-CONTROL to turn local

seek tuning on.

# To turn local seek tuning off, press MULTI-CONTROL again.

3Push MULTI-CONTROL left or right to set the sensitivity.

There are four levels of sensitivity for FM and two levels for MW/LW:

FM: LEVEL1—LEVEL2—LEVEL3—LEVEL4

MW/LW: LEVEL1—LEVEL2

The LEVEL4 setting allows reception of only the strongest stations, while lower settings let you receive progressively weaker stations.

Using PI Seek

If the tuner can’t find a suitable station, or re- ception status becomes bad, the unit will auto- matically search for a different station with a same programming. During the search,

PI SEEK is displayed and the output is muted.

Using Auto PI Seek for preset stations

When preset stations cannot be recalled, as when travelling long distances, the unit can be set to perform PI Seek during preset recall.

!The default setting for Auto PI Seek is off. See Switching Auto PI Seek on page 42.

Limiting stations to regional programming

When AF is used, the regional function limits the selection of stations broadcasting regional programs.
