OPERATION GUIDE
HOW TO TUNE MANUALLY
Turn the radio on. Make sure that the AUTOSCAN feature is not engaged (see
below). Select FM, AM or SW. Use quick, short presses of the +/- buttons to
move up or down frequency. The + button is used to tune up frequency, the -
button is used to tune down frequency. If your previous radios had a tuning
knob, these buttons perform the same function, but in a much more efficient,
precise manner.
HOW TO USE THE AUTOSCAN FEATURE
Turn the radio on. Select FM, AM or SW. Press-and-release the AUTOSCAN but-
ton once. 'AUTOSCAN' appears in the upper left of the LCD. Then press-and-
release either the + or - tuning button , . The + button is used to autoscan
up frequency, the - button is used to autoscan down frequency. The tuner will
automatically stop on stations. To deactivate the autoscan feature, press-and-
release the AUTOSCAN button . 'AUTOSCAN' will disappear from the LCD.
HOW TO STORE STATIONS INTO MEMORY
There are 30 memories, 10 each for FM, AM and SW. Turn the radio on, then
tune to the station that you wish to store into memory. Press-and-release the
STORE button . A memory digit will flash in the upper right corner of the LCD
. Then decide which of the 10 memories to store it into. To store it, press the
CH-UP button until it reaches your flashing chosen memory channel, on the
top right of the LCD . Then press-and-release the STORE button again.
HOW TO OVERWRITE THE CONTENTS OF A MEMORY
Store a new frequency into it, using the procedure outlined above. Memories
are never empty, or blank, therefore it is best to store a known station into
each memory position.
HOW TO ACCESS WHAT YOU HAVE STORED INTO MEMORY
Turn the radio on. To access a station that you have stored into memory, press-
and-release the CH-UP button until you reach the station that you wish to
hear. The station's frequency and the memory number will appear in the display.
To auto-scan the memories, press the CH-UP button for two seconds, then
release it. The scanner will stop on each memory for about 5 seconds, then
move on. To stop the scan, press-and-release the CH-UP button .

SETTING UP THE RADIO FOR AM BAND TUNING
AM stations in North, Central and South America are spaced in 10 kilohertz
tuning intervals. Other parts of the world use 9 kilohertz tuning intervals. The
selector switch is located on the top-left of the radio .
To set the radio up for 10 kilohertz tuning, turn the radio off. Then slide
the selector switch to the left. Then turn the radio on.
To set the radio up for 9 kilohertz tuning, turn the radio off. Then slide
the selector switch to the right. Then turn the radio on.
HOW TO USE THE RADIO
Turn the radio on. Each press of the BAND button causes AM, FM or SW to
appear in the left side of the display. Frequencies are displayed as numbers in
the display. AM frequencies are in Kilohertz; FM and SW frequencies are in
Megahertz. Extend the antenna when listening to FM or shortwave. It need
not be extended when listening to AM stations.
Note: a detailed example on how to tune shortwave is given later in this man-
ual. See USING YOUR FOR SHORTWAVE LISTENING.
