Note

You cannot change the AM tuning interval in Power Saving Mode (page 66).

Tips

The preset stations are retained for half a day even if you unplug the power cord or if a power failure occurs.

If you press TUNER/BAND on the unit while the system is turned off, the system turns on automatically and “TUNER” is selected as the function except during Power Saving Mode.

Listening to the radio

You can listen to a radio station either by selecting a preset station, or by manually tuning in the station.

Tips

For Preset Tuning, you can use the numeric buttons to select a preset station. Press the numeric button(s) to enter the preset number and then press ENTER.

To improve broadcast reception, adjust the supplied antennas, or connect an external antenna.

When an FM stereo program has static noise, press FM MODE repeatedly until “MONO” lights up in the display. There will be no stereo effect, but the reception will improve.

To record the radio programs, see “Recording onto a tape manually” (page 51) or “Timer recording radio programs” (page 65).
