You can listen to FM and AM broadcasts
through the built-in tuner. Before operation,
make sure you have connected the FM and AM
antennas to the receiver (see page 14).

The tuning scale differs depending on the area code as
shown in the following table. For details on area codes,

you want, you can let the receiver scan all
available stations in your area.

FM or AM band.
