Selecting a station
During normal use the FM tuner should be left in the standby
state. This uses a negligible amount of electricity, but ensures
that the components of the FM tuner operate at maximum
efficiency from the moment you start listening to a station.
If you are not going to use the FM tuner for a period of several
days you should switch the unit completely off, at the back
panel, and disconnect it from the AC power supply.
To switch on from standby
● Press [ (Previous) or ] (Next).
● Switch on any other equipment connected to the FM tuner
which is not part of the Meridian 500 Series.
To select a preset station
● Press [ (Previous) or ] (Next) until the display shows the
station you want to listen to, or type the number of the preset
(remote only).
For example, for Radio 3
the display will show:

● Keeping either key held down will step through the preset
stations in turn.

programme a preset, page 13.
