Scan sensitivity setting - FM

Your radio will normally scan for FM broadcasts which are strong enough to give good reception. However, you may wish the Auto-scan function to also be able to find weaker signals, possibly from more distant radio transmitters. Your radio includes a local / distant option for the Auto-scan function.

1.Press the On/Off button to switch on your radio. Ensure your radio is in FM mode.

2.Press the Station/Menu button the display will show 'MANUAL'.

3.Rotate the Tuning/Select control until 'SETTING' shows on the display. Press the control to enter the scan settings menu.

4.Rotate the Tuning/Select control to switch between Local and Distant options. The Distant option will allow the radio to find weaker signals when scanning.

5.Press and release the Tuning/Select control to confirm your selection. The display will return to the station name display after several seconds. The Local or Distant setting is stored in the radio and remains in force until changed or until a System Reset.

Note: The intial setting (out of the box, or after a System Reset) causes the radio to ignore weaker (or more distant) signals.
