!Setting the AM/FM interval

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has established that member countries should maintain either a 10 kHz or 9 kHz interval between broadcasting frequencies of AM stations and 100 kHz or 50 kHz for FM stations. The illustration shows the 50/9 kHz zones (regions 1 and 3), and the 100/10 kHz zone (region 2).

This product is not equipped with a span selector. However, the tun- ing interval is set to SPAN 1 [10 kHz AM interval (100 kHz FM inter- val)] when shipped from the factory.

Before using the unit, be sure to set it to the AM/FM tuning interval (span) used in your area.

To check the tuning span currently selected:

1Press the ON/STAND-BY button to turn the power on.

2Press the TUNER (BAND) button until "AM" appears on the display.

"If "AM 531 kHz" is displayed, it means that AM stations have been adjusted for a 9 kHz span and FM stations for 50 kHz span. If "AM 530 kHz" is displayed, AM stations have been ad- justed for a 10 kHz span and FM stations for 100 kHz span.

To change the AM/FM tuning interval:

1Press the ON/STAND-BY button to enter the power stand-by mode.

2Whilst holding down the TUNER (BAND) button and theE-46button, press the ON/STAND-BY button.

"SPAN SELECT" flashes.

3Within 10 seconds, press the TUNER

(BAND) button.

The current setting appears.

4Within 3 seconds, hold down the TUNER (BAND) button. "SPAN 1" and "SPAN 2" appear alternately. Release the button whilst the interval (span) in your area appears.

For 10 kHz AM (100 kHz FM) interval: SPAN 1

For 9 kHz AM (50 kHz FM) interval: SPAN 2

"The setting appears for 3 seconds and the unit enters the stand-by mode.

"To start over, press the TUNER (BAND) button whilst the set- ting appears, and repeat step 4.

Caution:

"When the unit is left for a few hours after the span is switched and the AC power lead is disconnected, the AM span automati- cally returns to SPAN 1 [10 kHz (FM span to 100 kHz)]. If this happens, set the span again.

"When the span is switched, all the memorised stations will be cancelled.
