OPERATING THE TUNER

PRESET SELECTION

When you want to listen to the tuner you must first select it as the current auditioning source. This is done by pressing the button repeatedly until the word 'TUNER' appears on the screen.

The system can store a total of 60 station pre- sets. The preset stores the frequency together with the other tuner settings (MONO / STEREO, ATTENUATOR etc.) (see Chapter "Storing and erasing presets"). When you call up a preset the tuner reverts to the exact setting in which the preset was sto- red.

Pressing the button briefly calls up the next stored tuner preset (in ascending order). If you hold the button pressed in for longer than one second, the tuner jumps back to the preceding preset.

If you continue to hold the button pressed in, the tuner continuously jumps back to the previous preset number until you re- lease the button. Empty memory spots are automatically skipped.

Note:

If you select a preset and the new station is broadcasting RDS information, the screen displays the station's name. Otherwise the screen shows the new preset number and the reception frequency. After about a second the preset number is replaced by a tuning indi- cator.

TUNER DISPLAY ELEMENTS

STEREO INDICATOR

This symbol lights up if the station you have selected is broadcasting a stereo signal.

The indicator does not light up if the trans- mission is in mono, or if the tuner has been set manually to MONO reception mode - 'RCVM MONO' (see Tuner special functi-

ons).

SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATOR

This symbol helps you to judge the signal strength and the quality of reception you can expect from the selected station. If the sym- bol lights up, hiss-free MONO reception is available. The stereo signal may have slight background hiss.

Note:

The tuner is fitted with an automatic High Blend circuit. When a stereo signal of ina- dequate field strength is picked up, this cir- cuit reduces the base width of the stereo sig- nal and thereby reduces the background hiss.
