To change the AM tuning interval
(not applicable on the European
model)
The AM tuning interval is factory-preset to 9 kHz (or
10 kHz for some areas). To switch the AM tuning
interval, tune in any AM station first, then turn off the
system. Pressing and holding down FUNCTION,
turn the system back on. When you change the
interval, all the AM preset stations are erased. To
change back to the original interval, repeat the same
procedure.
Tips
• The preset stations are saved in the system’s
memory for about a day even if you disconnect the
power cord or a power failure occurs.
• You can label the preset stations (see page 17).
• To improve the reception, adjust the supplied
antennas or connect an external antenna.
