How to operate the tuner with an optional HD
Radio tuner connected (U.S.A. only)
About HD Radio
If the optional HD Radio (High Definition Radio)
tuner is connected, terrestrial digital broadcasts
can be received. When terrestrial digital
broadcasts are received, FM reception has the
same quality as a CD, and AM reception has the
same quality as conventional FM sound.
Depending on the reception status, HD Radio
can also receive analog broadcasts, which
means reception is still possible in regions with
no digital coverage.
First, press the [FM AM] button to start tuner
operation.
There are automatic and manual methods for
setting stations in memory. The main unit will
accept up to 24 stations in memory: 6 in AM and
18 in FM (6 each for FM1, FM2 and FM3.) (Initial
setting)
