Normally, if station signals are strong and there is no
interference, quick automatic-search tuning (Automatic
tuning) is possible. However, if signals of the station you
want to select are weak, you must tune to it manually
(Manual tuning).
Automatic tuning
1 Select the TUNER position with the INPUT SELECTOR
control, watching the display.
2 Select the reception band [FM or AM (MW or LW)] by
pressing the BAND button while watching the display.
3 Press the AUTO/MAN’L button so that “AUTO TUNING”
appears on the display.
(In this mode, stations are received in stereo or monaural
automatically.)
4 Press the TUNING UP button to tune to a higher
frequency, or press the TUNING DOWN button to tune to
a lower frequency.
(When tuned to a station, “TUNED” will light up on the
display.)
5 If the station where tuning search stopped is not the
desired one, follow step 4 again.
* If the tuning search does not stop at the desired station,
change to the Manual tuning method as described below.
* STEREO indicator will light up when an FM stereo
broadcast with sufficient signal strength is received.
Manual tuning
11 Follow steps 1 and 2 of the Automatic tuning method.
22 Press the AUTO/MAN’L button so that “AUTO TUNING”
disappears from the display.
(In this mode, stations are received in monaural.)
33 Press and hold the TUNING UP button to tune to a higher
frequency, or press and hold the TUNING DOWN button
to tune to a lower frequency.
Release it just before reaching the desired frequency,
and then press it repeatedly until the desired frequency
appears.
(When tuned to a station, “TUNED” will light up on the
display.)
Note
If you tune to an FM station manually, it is received in
monaural automatically to increase the signal quality.
“AM” is for U.S.A., Canada, Australia, Singapore and
General models.
“MW/LW” is for U.K. and Europe models.
