Naming Preset Channels

While receiving a preset FM or AM station, a maximum of 8 characters consisting of letters, numbers and some symbols
can be stored, for example to represent the station name.
You cannot assign a name to the RDS station (for European model) and the SAT RADIO channel (for North American
model).

As an example, assume an FM station with a frequency
of 89.50 MHz has been stored in preset number 2 and
will be given the name “ONKYO.”

Note:

Press the [DISPLAY] button when you wish to check the
frequency while you are entering the characters.

Characters which can be entered:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 – * /

Note:
