easy selection.
Tuning into AM/FM Radio Stations
■
Auto Tuning Mode
When tuned into a station, the TUNED indicator
appears. When tuned into a stereo FM station, the FM
STEREO indicator also appears.
■
Manual Tuning Mode
The North American model changes FM frequency in
0.2MHz steps, 10kHz steps for AM. For other models
it’s 0.05MHz steps for FM and 9kHz (or 10kHz) steps
for AM.
In Manual Tuning mode, FM stations will be in mono.
Tuning into Weak FM Stereo Stations
If the signal from a stereo FM station is weak, it may be
impossible to get good reception. In this case, switch to
Manual Tuning mode and listen to the station in mono.
Note:
•You can also use the remote controller’s Up and Down
