Entering Abbreviations
(e.g., station name)
On each station memory location (1 ... 40), a station
name (up to 8 positions) which then is indicated in the
display can be programmed along with the frequency.
This is possible either when storing the frequency or at
a later date. Examples for station names are WARSAW,
HELSINKI, BUDAPEST, etc...
The entry is initialized with the A - Z button.
If the hint RDS or ROM TAB appears after having
pressed this button A - Z, entry of the abbreviation is
inhibited.
If entry of the name is possible, the radio will continue
to play on the chosen station. The cursor will flash at
the left in the display.
The TUNE / buttons allow you to enter letters (A-
Z), figures (0-9), and several special characters.
Each pressure on the A - Z button moves the cursor
one position to the right for entering the next
character. A longer pressure on the button moves the
cursor to the left thus allowing you to correct a wrong
entry.
If you wish to enter spaces or less than 8 positions,
use the blank character (between 9 and A).
After having entered the last position, press the A - Z
button once again. The cursor disappears and the entry
is allocated the station memory location.
When pressing the A - Z button once again, the cursor
reappears at the first position, and you can, for example,
correct the entry.
Exiting this function with the CLEAR button:
• The entry is not stored in memory.
When surpassing the timeout of > 15 seconds:
The actual entry is automatically stored in memory.
Calling Up Stored Stations
Enter the number of the desired station memory
location with the numeric buttons.
Press the MEMORY button.
- If the called up memory location is not programmed with
a station, the indication FREE appears for approxi-
mately 2 seconds in the display.
You will still hear the station tuned to before.
- When calling up stored stations with the numeric
buttons, the unit automatically switches to the correct
waveband (Intermix function).
