FM/AM tuning

Overview

You can use two tuning modes to tune into the desired FM/AM station:

Frequency tuning mode (AUTO TUNING/MANUAL TUNING)

You can search or specify the frequency of the desired FM/AM station automatically or manually (see “Basic tuning operations” on this page).

Preset tuning mode (PRESET TUNING)

You can preset the desired FM/AM station in advance, and then recall the station by specifying the preset group and number (see “Using station preset feature” on page 54).

Note

Orient the connected FM and AM antennas for the best reception.
