USING THE TUNER

FINDING A STATION

Follow steps below to tune in to FM and AM radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and manual (step) tuning functions. If you already know the exact frequency of the station you want to listen to, see Tuning Directly to a Station on the following page. Once you are tuned to a station you can memorize the frequency for recall later—see "Memorizing Stations" on page 24 for more on how to do this.

The receiver and the remote control must both be set to tuner mode for AM/FM station listening.

1Use the FUNCTION button to put the receiver in tuner mode. On the receiver, press the FM/AM button to select the tuner mode.

2Press the TUNER button on the remote control to put it in tuner mode.

3Use the FM/AM button to change the band (FM or AM), if necessary.

Each press switches the band between FM and AM (on the front panel use the FM/AM button).

4Tune to a station. Automatic Tuning

To search for stations in the currently selected band, press and hold either the TUNING. + or TUNING. – button for about a second. The receiver will start searching for the next station, stopping when it has found one. Repeat this step to search for other stations.

Manual Tuning

To change the frequency one step at a time, press the

TUNING. + / TUNING. – (5°) buttons.

To change frequency more quickly, press and hold the TUNING. + / TUNING. – buttons until the desired frequency is reached, then release.

Once you've found a station, you can store it in the receiver's memory for easy recall anytime—see "Recalling Memorized Stations" on page 25.

MPX Mode

If the TUNED or STEREO indicators don't light when tuning to an FM station because the signal is weak, press the MPX button to switch the receiver into mono reception mode. This should improve the sound quality and allow you to enjoy the broadcast.
