Stereo/Mono setting – FM

Your radio will play stereo broadcasts in stereo (via headphones) so
long as the received signal is of adequate strength. However, as a
stereo signal becomes weaker, the audio signal will become poorer.

tuned station only. It is cancelled automatically by tuning to another
radio station.

tuned radio station, press and hold the INFO button then following
