Naming preset stations
and program sources
You can enter a name (index name) of up to 8 characters for preset stations and program sources. These names (for example, “VHS”) appear in the receiver’s display when a station or program source is selected. Note that no more than one name can be entered for each preset station or program source.
This function is useful for distinguishing components of the same kind. For example, two VCRs can be specified as “VHS” and “8MM”, respectively. It is also handy for identifying components connected to jacks meant for another type of component, for example, a second CD player connected to the MD/TAPE jacks.

Press TUNER FM/AM, then tune in the preset station you want to create an index name for.
If you are not familiar with how to tune in preset stations, see “Tuning to preset stations” on page 32.
