To turn off the radio
Press RADIO OFF (x).
To tune in a station quickly
In step 3, flip and hold the jog lever towards F+ or F– until the
frequency indication begins to change. The remote control
automatically scans the radio frequencies and stops when it finds a
clear station. A short beep will sound in the headphones/earphones
and the radio station begins playing.
To improve broadcast reception
• For AM: Orient the built-in AM antenna inside the remote control
horizontally to obtain optimum AM reception.
• For FM: Extend the headphones/earphones cord, which act as the
FM antenna.
If the reception is still not good, press and hold FM MODE
(RADIO ON/BAND) until “MONO”(monaural) or “LOCAL”
appears in the display for best reception.
When you cannot operate the radio
Make sure the remote control is not locked (page 41).
Notes
• When you use the radio, it is recommended that you use a fully charged
rechargeable battery or a new dry battery since more power is consumed by
the radio than by MD playback.
• The radio will not operate if the remote control is not connected to the
recorder.
• Do not place the remote control close to another electronic device, such as
the recorder itself, another radio, a TV, or a computer, as this may cause noise
in the reception.
• Playback or recording stops when you use the radio.
• Use VOL +/– on the remote control to adjust the radio volume.
