Using the Tuner
With the built-in tuner, you can enjoy AM and FM radio
stations. You can store your favorite stations as presets
for quick selection.
AM Frequency Step Setup
(not North America and Europe)
Here you can specify the AM frequency step used in
your area. When this setting is changed, all radio presets
are deleted.
Note:
• This procedure can also be performed on the remote
controller by using its [SETUP] button, arrow buttons,
and [ENTER] button.
■ Auto Tuning Mode
When tuned into a station, the TUNED indicator
appears. When tuned into a stereo FM station, the FM
STEREO indicator appears on the display, as shown.
■ Manual Tuning Mode
The American model changes FM frequency in 0.2 MHz
steps, 10 kHz steps for AM. For other models it’s
0.05 MHz steps for FM and 9 kHz 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.
