Naming preset stations
and program sources
You can enter a name (index name) of up to 8
characters for preset stations and program
sources. These names (for example, “VHS”)
appear in the receiver’s display when a station
or program source is selected. Note that no
more than one name can be entered for each
preset station or program source.
This function is useful for distinguishing
components of the same kind. For example,
two VCRs can be specified as “VHS” and
“8MM”, respectively. It is also handy for
identifying components connected to jacks
meant for another type of component, for
example, a second CD player connected to the
MD/TAPE jacks.
1 To name a preset station
Press TUNER, then tune in the preset
station you want to create an index
name for.
The last station you received is tuned in.
If you are not familiar with how to tune in
preset stations, see “Tuning to preset
stations” on page 15.
To name a program source
Select the program source (component)
to be named.
2 Press NAME.
3 Create an index name by using the
TUNING/CHAR and NAME:
Press TUNING/CHAR + or TUNING/
CHAR – to select a character, then press
NAME to move the cursor to the next
position.
To insert a space
Press TUNING/CHAR + or TUNING/
CHAR – until a blank space appears in the
display.
If you’ve made a mistake
Press NAME repeatedly until the character
to be changed flashes, then press TUNING/
CHAR + or TUNING/CHAR – to select the
right character.
4 Press MEMORY/ENTER.
5 Repeat steps 2 to 4 to assign index
name for another station or program
source.
Note
(Models of area code CEL, CEK only)
You cannot change the name of an RDS station.
Recording
Before you begin, make sure you’ve connected

Recording on an audio tape
or MiniDisc
You can record on a cassette tape or MiniDisc
using the receiver. See the operating
instructions of your cassette deck or MD deck
if you need help.
1 Select the component to be recorded.
2 Prepare the component for playing.
For example, insert a CD into the CD
player.
3 Insert a blank tape or MD into the
recording deck and adjust the
recording level, if necessary.

then start playback on the playback
component.
