You can preset up to 30 of your favorite AM and FM
stations, in any combination, in the tuner memory for easy
recall.
1. Press the STANDBY button on the front panel or the
STANDBY button on the remote control to turn the
system ‘On’.
2. Press either the TUNER/BAND button on the front panel
or the FUNCTION button on the remote control to select
the Tuner function. Press again to switch between AM
and FM bands if necessary.
3. Tune to the first station you wish to preset by either
the Manual or Automatic tuning method as follows:
Manual Tuning - repeatedly press the TUNING Ù or Ú
buttons on the front panel or the remote control until the
desired frequency appears on the display. (Note: You
must use manual tuning if your are trying to tune to a
weak station.)
Automatic Tuning - press and hold the TUNING Ù or Ú
button on the front panel or the remote control until the
display begins to scan down or up, and then release
the buttons. The Tuner will stop on the first strong
station it finds. Repeat this process until it stops on your
desired station.
4. When the desired station appears on the display
(example: FM 103.50 MHZ) press the MEMORY button
on the front panel. (Note: There is no MEMORY button on
the remote control.) The PRESET indicator and channel
“01” indicators will flash in the display for 5 seconds.
When the indicators stop flashing, the station is
memorized in Preset Memory number 1.
5. Repeat step 3 to tune to the next station to be
memorized. Press the MEMORY button on the front
panel and while the PRESET and channel “01” indicators
are flashing press the PRESET TUNING Ù or Ú buttons
to select preset channel memory number “02” or any
other preset number from 02 to 30. When the indicators
stop flashing the station is memorized.
6. Repeat step 5 until you have stored up to 30 stations in
the tuner memory.
Recalling Preset Stations
1. Turn the system ‘On’ and select the Tuner function.
2. Press the PRESET STATION Ù or Ú buttons on the
front panel or remote to scroll through all of the preset
station memories to find your desired station.
You may also use the number keys on the remote control
to go directly to any of the preset stations. To select
preset stations 1 through 9, press the corresponding
number button. To select stations from 10 to 30, press the
corresponding two number buttons.
Changing Preset Stations
Tune to the new station you want to memorize. Press the
MEMORY button on the front panel. While the PRESET and
“01 CH” indicators are flashing, press the PRESET MEMORY
Ù or Ú buttons to select the memory number you wish to
change. When the indicators stop flashing the new station
is now memorized and the previous station is deleted.
Last Station Memory
The Tuner always remembers the last station that you
were listening to before you switched to a different
function or shut the power ‘Off’. It will return to that same
station when you turn the system ‘On’ again and select
the Tuner function.
Note: If the AC power is disconnected for an extended
period of time all of the stations in the tuner memory
may be deleted. You will have to store them in
memory again when power is restored.
