Receiver Operations

Receiving Broadcasts

This receiver lets you enter a station’s frequency directly by using the numeric buttons (direct tuning). If you don’t know the frequency of the station you want, see “Receiving broadcasts by scanning stations (automatic tuning)”on this page.

Before you begin, make sure you have:

Connected an FM/AM antenna to the receiver as indicated on page 5.

Selected the appropriate speaker system. (For details, see “Selecting the speaker system” on page 8.)

zIf an FM stereo program is distorted

The STEREO indicator flashes. Press FM MODE to change to monaural (MONO). You will not have the stereo effect but the distortion will be reduced. To return to the auto stereo mode, press this button again.

zIf you cannot tune in a station and the entered numbers are flashing

Make sure you’ve entered the right frequency. If not, press DIRECT and reenter the frequency you want. If the entered numbers still flash, the frequency is not used in your area.

zTo watch FM simulcast TV programs

Make sure that you tune in the simulcast program on both the TV (or VCR) and the receiver.

zIf you enter a frequency not covered by the tuning interval

The entered value is automatically rounded up or down to the closest covered value.

Tuning intervals for direct tuning are: FM: 50 kHz intervals

AM: 10 kHz intervals (USA and Canadian model only; to change to 9 kHz intervals, see page 33.)

9 kHz intervals (Australian model only)

9 kHz intervals (models for all other countries; to change to 10 kHz intervals, see page 33.)

6When you tune in AM stations, adjust the direction of the AM loop antenna for optimum reception.

To receive other stations

Repeat Steps 3 to 5.

zIf the STEREO indicator remains off

Press FM MODE even when an FM stereo broadcast is received.

Receiving broadcasts by scanning stations (automatic tuning)

If you don’t know the frequency of the radio station you want, you can have the receiver scan all the receivable stations to locate the one you want.

1Press AUDIO FUNCTION repeatedly until the TUNER indicator lights up.

The last received station is tuned in.

2Press DISPLAY so that the frequency appears in the display.

3Press FM/AM to select FM or AM.

4Press TUNING + or –.

Press the + button for a higher station number; press the – button for a lower one. When you tune past either end of the band, the receiver automatically jumps to the opposite end and continues scanning in the same direction. Every time a station is received, the receiver stops scanning. To continue scanning, press the button again.
