a maximum of 30 seconds.

please refer to the section on “DSC program-
ming - VAR (Various), SCAN (time)”.
Selecting the seek tuning sensi-
tivity
You can alter the automatic seek tuning sen-
sitivity separately for AM and FM.

please refer to the section on “DSC program-
ming - TUN(er) S-DX, S-LO”).
Switching from stereo to mono
(FM)
You can switch between stereo/mono on
menu level 2. If reception is poor, you may
get better sound quality by switching from
stereo to mono. Each time the radio is
switched on, stereo playback is activated au-
tomatically.
The unit will gradually switch to mono if the
signal received is not strong enough for ster-
eo playback.
If you would like to switch to mono,
•
press TU and NEXT one after the
other.
The red arrow for mono will light up when
you have switched to MONO.
•
Press MONO to switch between stereo
to mono.
The mode selected will appear briefly in the
top line of the display.
Automatic bandwidth adjust-
ment (SHARX)
In the DSC menu, you can use the SHARX
function to adjust automatic bandwidth
switching in the FM frequency range. This
can be a great advantage when there are a
large number of stations within your current
reception range.
Interference with strong adjacent stations
can be reduced to an absolute minimum if
you activate SHARX ON (default setting).
If necessary, refer to the section on “DSC
programming - TUN(er) SHRX”.
PTY - Program Type
PTY is an RDS service which an increasing
number of broadcasting stations have be-
gun to offer. This feature allows you to se-
lect FM stations according to their program
type. After you have chosen the PTY of your
preference, the corresponding stations can
be selected by seek tuning.
