AUTOMATIC PRESET TUNING

You can also make use of an automatic preset tuning function for FM stations only. By this function, this unit performs automatic tuning and stores FM stations with strong signals sequentially. Up to 40 stations are stored automatically in the same way as in the manual preset tuning method on page 9.

* Only RDS stations can be stored by this function.

The automatic preset tuning begins from the frequency currently displayed. Received stations are programmed to A1, A2 ... A8 sequentially.

*If more than 8 stations are received, they are also programmed to the preset station numbers on other pages (B, C, D and E) in that order.

If you want to store the first station received by the automatic preset tuning to a desired preset station number.

If, for example, you want to store the first received station to C5, select “C5” by using theA/B/C/D/E button and the PRESET STATIONS DOWN/UP buttons after pressing the MEMORY button in step 2. Then press the ENTER button. The first received station is stored to C5, and next stations to C6, C7 ... sequentially.

If stations are stored up to E8, the automatic preset tuning is finished automatically.

When the automatic preset tuning is finished

The display shows the frequency of the last preset station. Check the contents and the number of preset stations by following the procedure of the section “To recall a preset station” on page 9.

To recall a preset station

Simply follow the procedure of the section “To recall a preset station” on page 9.

<U.K. and Europe models only>

*A recalled station is shown by the frequency or station name on the display.

Notes

You can replace a preset station by another FM or AM station manually by simply following the procedure of the section “To store stations” on page 9.

<General model only>

If the number of received stations is not enough to be stored

 

up to E8, the search is finished automatically when it

 

reaches the highest frequency after searching through all

 

frequencies.

With this function, only FM stations with sufficient signal

 

strength are stored automatically. If the station you want to

 

program is week in signal strength, tune to it in monaural

 

manually and program it by following the procedure of the

 

section “To store stations” on page 9.

<U.K. and Europe models only>

The automatic preset tuning search will be performed through all RDS network frequencies until stations are stored up to E8. If the number of received stations is not enough to be stored up to E8, the search is finished automatically after searching through all frequencies.

With this function, only RDS stations with sufficient signal strength are stored automatically. If the station you want to program is weak in signal strength, tune to it in monaural manually and program it by following the procedure of the section “To store stations” on page 9.

*There may be a case that this function cannot receive a station which could be received by the automatic tuning method. This is because this function receives a large volume of PI (Program Identification) data along with the station.
