Finding a Station
The following steps show you how to tune in to FM and
AM radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and
manual (step) tuning functions. If you already know the
exact frequency of the station you want to listen to, see
Tuning Directly to a Station below. Once you are tuned
to a station you can memorize the frequency for recall
later—see Memorizing Stations on page 27 for more on
how to do this.
Using the Tuner
1 Press the
MULTI CONTROL TUNER
button
on the remote control or turn the
MULTIJOG
DIAL
on the receiver to select the tuner
mode.
2 Use the
BAND
button to change the band
(FM or AM), if necessary.
Each press switches the band between FM and AM.
3 Tune to a station.
Automatic tuning
To search for stations in the currently selected band,
press and hold either the
FQ. +
or
FQ. –
button for
about a second. The receiver will start searching for
the next station, stopping when it has found one.
Repeat this step to search for other stations.
Manual tuning
To change the frequency one step at a time, press the
FQ. + / FQ. –
(
5∞) buttons.
High speed tuning
Press and hold the
FQ. +
or
FQ. –
button for high
speed tuning, releasing the button once the desired
frequency is reached.
MPX mode
If the
TUNED
or
STEREO
indicators don't light when
tuning to an FM station because the signal is weak, press
the
MPX
button to switch the receiver into mono
reception mode. This should improve the sound quality
and allow you to enjoy the broadcast.
