Automatic Preset Tuning (for FM
stations only)
You can make use of the automatic preset tuning function
for FM stations only. This function enables the unit to
automatically tune in with strong signals and to sequentially
store up to 40 FM stations (5 groups x 8 stations).
1 Press FM/AM to select the FM band.
2 Press TUNING MODE so that the “AUTO”
indicator lights up on the display.
3 Hold down MEMORY for about three seconds.
The preset number, the “MEMORY” and “AUTO”
indicators flash. After about five seconds, automatic
preset tuning begins from the frequency currently
displayed toward the higher frequencies.
Received stations are sequentially stored as A1, A2 ...
A8. If more than 8 stations have been tuned, they are
stored as preset station numbers in other groups (B, C,
D and E) in that order.
Memory back-up
The memory back-up circuit prevents the stored data
from being lost when this unit is set in the standby mode.
If, however, the power cord is disconnected from the AC
power outlet or the power is cut for more than one week,
the memory will be erased. If so, store the stations again
by using preset tuning methods.

■ Automatic preset tuning options
You can select the preset number from which the unit will
store FM stations and/or begin tuning toward lower
frequencies. Before automatic preset tuning begins (after
pressing MEMORY in step 3):
1. Press A/B/C/D/E and PRESET/TUNING h or l to
select the preset number with which the first station will
be stored. The automatic preset tuning will stop when
stations have all been stored up to E8.
2. Press PRESET/TUNING (EDIT) to turn “ z ” off and
then press PRESET/TUNING l to begin tuning toward
lower frequencies.
■ When automatic preset tuning is
completed
The display shows the frequency of the last preset station.
Check the contents and the number of preset stations by
following the procedure in the section “To Recall a Preset
Station” on page 29.
Notes
• A new setting can be stored in place of the former one.
• You can manually replace a preset station with another FM or AM
station by simply using the manual preset tuning method.
• Even if the number of received stations is not enough to be stored
up to E8, automatic preset tuning is automatically ended after
searching for all stations.
• Only FM stations with sufficient signal strength are stored by
automatic preset tuning. If the station you want to store is weak in
signal strength, tune in to it manually in monaural mode and store
it by using the manual preset tuning method.
