Using the tuner
Finding a station
The following steps show you how to tune in to 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 to listen to, see
Tuning directly to a station
below. Once you are tuned to
a station you can memorize the frequency for recall
later—see
Memorizing station presets
on page 25 for
more on how to do this.
1 Press the FM/AM button on the remote control
to put it in tuner mode.
2 Press BAND (or FM/AM)
to change the band (FM
or AM), if necessary.
Each press switches the band between FM and AM.
3 Tune to a station using the TUNE +/– buttons.
Automatic tuning
To search for stations in the currently selected band,
press and hold either the
TUNE +/–
buttons for about
a second. The receiver will start searching for the
next station, stopping when it has found one. Repeat
this step to search for other stations.
Manual tuning
To change the frequency one step at a time, press
the
TUNE +/–
buttons.
High speed tuning
Press and hold the
TUNE +/–
buttons for high speed
tuning, releasing the button once the desired
frequency is reached.
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
(remote control only) 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.
RF attenuator mode
If the radio signal is too strong and/or the sound is
distorting press the
RF ATT
button to attenuate (lower)
the radio signal input and reduce the distortion (for FM
stations only).
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 Press the FM/AM button on the remote control
to put it in tuner mode.
2 Press BAND (or FM/AM)
to change the band (FM
or AM), if necessary.
Each press switches the band between FM and AM.
3 Press D.ACCESS (Direct access).
4 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
.
• If you make a mistake while inputting the frequency,
press the
D.ACCESS
button twice to cancel the
frequency and start again.
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
