Improving FM sound

If the TUNE or ST indicators don’t light when tuning to an FM station because the signal is weak, set the receiver to the mono reception mode.

Press BAND to select FM MONO.

This should improve the sound quality and allow you to enjoy the broadcast.

Saving station presets

If you often listen to a particular radio station, it’s convenient to have the receiver store the frequency for easy recall whenever you want to listen to that station. This saves the effort of manually tuning in each time. This unit can memorize up to 30 stations.

Basic playback

Note

•If the receiver is left disconnected from the AC power outlet for over a month, the station memories will be lost and will have to be reprogrammed.

•Stations are stored in stereo. When the station is stored in the FM MONO mode, it shows as ST when recalled.

Listening to station presets

You will need to have some presets stored to do this. See Saving station presets above if you haven’t done this already.

Press PRESET / to select the station preset you want.

•You can also use the number buttons on the remote control to recall the station preset.
