1 Press POWER ON/OFF to turn on the radio.

2 Tune in to the desired station.

For tuning methods, see “Various ways of reception”, pages 16 to 29.

3 Press SYNC repeatedly to select the synchronous detection mode with better reception (SYNC U or SYNC L).

Each time SYNC is pressed, the display changes as follows:

(Normal mode)SYNC U SYNC L

“LOCK” appears in the display when synchronous detection is in effect.

Tip

For more on synchronous detection, see “Tips on radio waves”, page 50.

Notes

Synchronous detection may be cancelled when the batteries become weak.

Even when you have chosen either of the synchronous detection modes and SYNC U or SYNC L is lit in the display, synchronous detection may not take effect if reception is weak. In this case, “LOCK” will not light up.

Synchronous detection setting cannot be preset to memory.

If a preset AM frequency is recalled when either synchronous detection mode is in effect, the mode setting remains active and the frequency is received in the respective mode.
