Presetting radio stations
This section shows you how to store up to 30 of
your favorite FM or AM (FM, MW or LW:
European model) stations manually onto preset
codes made up of characters (A, B, or C) and
numbers (1 - 0), such as A7. You can store up
to 10 stations on each of the 3 different letters.
You can use these letters to classify stations
according to music category or station band.

“MEMORY” appears along with the lowest
vacant code to indicate that the tuner is
ready to store the station.
3 Press SHIFT repeatedly to select either
A, B, or C.
The letter you selected appears in the
display.

The tuner stores the station at the preset
code you specified.

stations.
