When you use the 10 keys on the remote control, be sure that they

Selecting the FM Reception Mode
When an FM stereo broadcast is hard to receive or noisy, you can
change the FM reception mode while receiving an FM broadcast.
• You can store the FM reception mode for each preset station (see
page 16).
While listening to an FM station, press FM MODE.
• Each time you press the button, the FM reception mode alternates
between “AUTO MUTING” and “MODE MONO.”
AUTO MUTING: Normally select this.
When a program is broadcasted in stereo,
you will hear stereo sound; when in
monaural, you will hear monaural sounds.
This mode is also useful to suppress static
noise between stations.
The AUTO MUTING indicator lights up on
the display. (Initial setting)
MODE MONO: Select this to improve the reception (but
stereo effect will be lost).
In this mode, you will hear noise while
tuning in to the stations.
The AUTO MUTING indicator goes off
from the display (the STEREO indicator
goes off).
Note:
After you operate any source other than the tuner using the remote
control, the FM MODE button on the remote control does not work.
In this case, press FM/AM on the remote control, then press FM
MODE.
