4 Switching On

Listening to the Radio

The tuner can receive both FM and AM broadcasts, and lets you memorize your
favourite stations so you don't have to manually tune in every time you want to listen.
Here we run through the basic tuner controls, including switching between AM and
FM, and tuning to a station. Full instructions for all the tuner's other features can be
found on pages 27 to 32.

Press TUNER to switch to tuner mode.

Press repeatedly to switch between:

FM - AM - STATION

For now, choose either

— the

STATION

option is covered on page

27.

Tune to a station.

There are three tuning modes—step, auto, and high-speed:

Step tuning: Press the

$ or › button repeatedly to step through

the frequency band in either direction

Auto tuning: Press and hold the

$ or › button until the frequency

display starts to move, then release. The tuner will stop on the next station it
finds. Repeat to search for other stations.

High-speed tuning: Press and hold the

$ or › button until the

frequency display starts to move rapidly. Keep the button held down until you
reach the frequency you want. If necessary, fine tune the frequency using the
step tuning method.

When you're tuned into a station, the tuned indicator lights in the display.

If the station is FM stereo, the stereo indicator lights.
