properly tuned in.
• The frequency is changed in 100 kHz steps in FM and 9 kHz steps in AM.
Automatically tuning in an FM station (Auto tuning)

If auto tuning of an FM station is not possible
When you tune in a stereo FM station, the STEREO indicator lights up
if the signal is sufficiently strong. If the signal is weak, your desired
station may not tune in. In this case, try the following to receive the
signal in the mono mode:
First, press the FM MUTE/MODE button.
The broadcast is heard in mono.
Next, tune in the station you want to listen to.
The station is now tuned in with reduced interference noise and fewer
sound dropouts.
Note:
If you turn off the FM MUTE indicator, interference noise will be
heard when you switch from one station to another.
