Tuning directly to a station
Sometimes, you'll already know the frequency of the
station you want to listen to. In this case, you can simply
enter the frequency directly using the number buttons on
the remote control.
1 On the tuner touch screen menu, press BAND to
change the band (FM or AM), if necessary.
Each press switches the band between FM and AM.
2 Press DIRECT ACCESS.
3 Use the number buttons to enter the frequency
of the radio station.
For example, to tune to 106.00 (FM), press 1, 0, 6, 0, 0.
Note
If you make a mistake while inputting the frequency,
press the DIRECT ACCESS button again to cancel the
frequency and start again.
MPX mode
If there is interference or noise during a stereo FM radio
broadcast (the STEREO indicator is lit), or the radio
reception is weak, press MPX on the tuner touch screen
menu to switch the receiver into mono reception mode
(the MONO indicator lights). This should improve the
sound quality and allow you to enjoy the broadcast.
Memorizing station presets
If you often listen to a particular radio station, it's
convenient to have the receiver store the frequency for
easy recall whenever you want to listen to that station.
This saves the effort of manually tuning in each time. The
receiver can memorize up to 30 stations, stored in three
banks, or classes, (A, B and C) of 10 stations each. When
memorizing FM frequencies, the receiver also stores the
MPX setting (see MPX mode above).
1 Tune to a station you want to memorize.
See Finding a station on page 54 and Tuning directly to a
station above for more details on how to do this.
2 Press TUNER EDIT.
The display shows MEMORY INPUT then a blinking
memory class (A, B or C).
3 Press CLASS to select one of the three classes.
Press repeatedly to cycle through the three memory
classes, A, B and C.
4 Use the STATION +/– buttons (or number
buttons) to select the station preset you want.
Press STATION +/– repeatedly to select a preset
number.
