optimum reception.

Tip
• If you do not remember the precise frequency, press
TUNING + or TUNING – after entering the value
close to the frequency you want. The receiver
automatically tunes in the station you want. If the
frequency seems to be higher than the entered
value, press TUNING +, and if the frequency seems
to be lower than the entered value, press
TUNING –.
• If “STEREO” flashes in the display and the FM
stereo reception is poor, press FM MODE to
improve the sound. You will not be able to enjoy
the stereo effect, but the sound will be less
distorted.
Note
If “STEREO” does not appear at all when an FM
broadcast is received normally, press FM MODE to
turn on the “STEREO” indication.

Preset tuning
After you have tuned in stations using Direct
Tuning or Automatic Tuning, you can preset
them to the receiver. Then you can tune in any
of the stations directly by entering its
2-character preset code using the supplied
remote. Up to 30 FM or AM stations can be
preset. The receiver will also scan all the
stations that you have preset.
Before tuning to preset stations, be sure to
preset them by performing steps on “Presetting
radio stations” (page 40).
