Brief descriptions of buttons on the

remote used to receive broadcasts

PRESET +/– buttons: Press to select a preset station.

BAND button: Press to select the FM or AM band.

SHIFT button: Press to select a memory page (A, B, or C) for presetting radio stations or tuning to preset stations.

FUNCTION +/– buttons: Press repeatedly to select the tuner.

FM MODE button: If “STEREO” flashes in the display and the FM stereo reception is poor, press this button to improve the sound. “MONO” lights up in the display and you will not be able to enjoy stereo effect, but the sound will be less distorted.

Note

If “MONO” appears in the display even when the FM broadcast is received normally, press this button to turn off the “MONO” indication.

zWhen you tune to a station that provides RDS services

The program station name appears in the display.

Notes

RDS may not work properly if the station you tuned to is not transmitting the RDS signal properly or if the signal strength is weak.

After you disconnect the AC power cord of the receiver, RDS program station names may not be saved correctly. To prevent this, preset the RDS stations (page 19).
