Presetting Stations
You can preset up to 30 FM stations and up to 15 AM stations.
• Preset numbers may have been set to factory test fre-
quencies prior to shipment. This is not a malfunction. You
can preset the stations you want into memory by following
one of the presetting methods below.

To Change the FM Reception
Mode
When you are tuned in to an FM stereo broadcast, the “ST (Ster-
eo)” indicator lights up and you can hear stereo effects.
If an FM stereo broadcast is hard to receive or noisy, you can select
Monaural mode. Reception improves, but you lose stereo effect.
Press the FM MODE button on the Remote Control so
that the “MONO” indicator lights up on the display.
To restore the stereo effect, press the FM MODE button on
the Remote Control so that the “MONO” indicator goes off.
Selecting other station will also cancel the FM Mono mode and re-
store the stereo effect.
