bl AM/FM BAND SELECTOR (BAND)
Each time this button is pressed, the radio band is changed. The
indication AM1, AM2, FM1, FM2 or FM3 will appear on the display
panel according to your selection.
bm UP/DOWN TUNE/SEEK/TRACK ( / ) BUTTONS
To manually select a radio station, momentarily press the Up Tuning
(
) button to advance the unit higher, or the Down Tuning
(
) button to tune lower within the selected band.
Pressing either for longer than 0.5 second and then releasing will
activate the Automatic Seek Tuning function. The radio will seek
the next available station in the selected direction and stop at
that frequency. The Seek function can be stopped by pressing
the button again or activating any other tuning function.
bn LOCAL/ILL BUTTON
This feature is used to select the strength of the signals at which
the radio will stop during Automatic Seek Tuning. Pressing and
holding the button will select the Local setting (LOC will appear on
the display panel) and only strong (local) stations will be received.
Pressing and holding the button again will select the Distant setting
(LOC will disappear from the display panel) and the radio will stop
at a wider range of signals, including weaker (more distant) stations.
Each time the button is momentarily pressed and released, the
VFD display panel back-lighting intensity will change from low-to-
medium-to-high, and then back to low, thereby providing three
different intensity settings.
bo FM MONO/STEREO BUTTON (MONO)
During FM radio operation, this button is used to select mono or
stereo reception of the broadcast signal. Under normal reception
conditions, the unit should be left in the stereo mode as indicated
by the ST
indication on the display panel when tuned to an FM
stereo signal. If the stereo signal is too noisy for comfortable
listening, press the FM Mono/Stereo Selector button to switch to
mono reception (the ST
indication will disappear from the display
panel). To return to stereo reception mode, press the button again
so that the ST
indication appears in the display panel.
bp PRE-SET SCAN (PS) /AUTO-STORE TUNING (AS)
Press this button momentarily to scan the stations pre-set into the
six memories of the current band in use. The unit will stop at each
pre-set station for 5 seconds before continuing to the next pre-set
station (the pre-set number on the display panel will flash during
Pre-Set Scan operation). Press the button again momentarily to
stop Pre-Set Scan operation and remain on the selected frequency.
If no buttons are pressed during the scan, the unit will return to the
original station before the scan started.
Pressing and holding the button for longer than 2 seconds will
activate the Auto-Store Tuning feature which will automatically scan
and enter up to 6 stations into the pre-set memories on the band in
use. If you have already set the pre-set memories to your favorite
stations, activating the Auto-Store Tuning feature will erase those
stations and enter the new ones. This feature is most useful when
traveling in a new area where you are not familiar with the local
stations.
