There are two methods of presetting stations.

Automatic presetting: The stations the tuner can receive are preset.

Manual presetting: You can select the stations to preset and the order they are preset in.

There are 39 channels available for presetting.

Preparation: Tune to the frequency presetting is to begin at (➡ page 17).

The tuner presets all the stations it can receive into the channels in ascend- ing order. FM stations are preset into channels 1 to 39, and AM stations are preset into channels 21 to 39.

“SET OK” is shown when presetting is complete and the last station to be preset is played.

“ERROR” is displayed if the tuner doesn’t receive any stations. Do preset- ting manually if this happens (see below).

Dolby noise reduction

Dolby NR reduces “hissing” when playing tapes. It increases the high fre- quency region when recording and then reduces it in playback. Use the same system during playback and recording. This unit has Dolby B NR which reduces noise to a third.

Prerecorded cassettes and equipment marked “ÎNR” use Dolby B NR.
