Automatic and Manual Tuning
The following steps show you how to tune in FM and AM radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and manual
(step) tuning functions. If you already know the exact frequency of the station you want, see “Direct Access Tuning“ on
the following page.
1 Press the TUNER.
On the remote, this selects the TUNER function on the
receiver and sets the remote to the TUNER operation mode.
2 Press BAND button on the remote or the FM/AM
button on the front panel to select the band (FM
or AM).
Each press switches the band: FM j AM
3 Tune in the station.
For Automatic Tuning
Press and hold TUNING –/+ for about one second, then
release.
The tuner starts searching the selected band and stop
automatically at the first station it locates. Repeat to locate
other stations.
For Manual Tuning
To change frequencies one step at a time, press TUNING
–/+ repeatedly.
To change frequencies quickly, hold down TUNING –/+ and
release when you reach the frequency you desire.
4 Adjust the volume.
MPX Mode
If the TUNED or STEREO indicators do not light when tuning an
FM station, because the station is too far away or the broadcast
signal is weak, press MPX on the remote control or front panel to
switch to MONO reception. This should improve reception enough
for you to enjoy the broadcast.
