About MPEG-4 AAC
Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is at the core of the MPEG-4
AAC standard, which incorporates MPEG-2 AAC, forming the
basis of the MPEG-4 audio compression technology. The file

encode the AAC file. This receiver plays back AAC files
encoded by iTunes

bearing the extension ‘.m4a’. DRM-
protected files will not play, and files encoded with some
versions of iTunes
®
may not play.

Listening to the radio
The following steps show you how to tune in to FM and AM
radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and manual
(step) tuning functions. Once you are tuned to a station you
can memorize the frequency for recall later—see Saving
station presets below for more on how to do this.
1 Press TUNER to select the tuner.
2 Use BAND to change the band (FM or AM), if necessary.
Each press switches the band between FM (stereo or mono)
and AM.
3 Tune to a station.
There are three ways to do this:
Automatic tuning
To search for stations in the currently selected band,
press and hold TUNE / for about a second. The
receiver will start searching for the next station, stopping
when it has found one. Repeat to search for other
stations.
Manual tuning
To change the frequency one step at a time, press
TUNE /.
High speed tuning
Press and hold TUNE / for high speed tuning.
Improving FM sound
If the TUNE or ST indicators don’t light when tuning to an FM
station because the signal is weak, set the receiver to the
mono reception mode.
1 Press BAND to select FM MONO.
This should improve the sound quality and allow you to enjoy
the broadcast.
