CD Player/Tuner Stereo System HARMONY
FM LOCAL/DISTANCE SWITCH
The Local/Distance Switch located above the antenna
connectors on the back of the Harmony is featured to
optimize the automatic tuning feature of Harmony's FM
Tuner to the listening environment where the unit is
operated.
If the unit is used in a metropolitan area with many
strong stations, the switch should be in
LO (Local)
position. If it is not, slide it to LO position using a tip of a
pen. The Harmony should be able to automatically tune
to and bring in strong and listenable FM stations.
If the unit is used in a rural area with few weak or distant
stations, the switch should be in
DX (Distance) position.
If it is not, slide it to DX position using a tip of a pen.
The Harmony should be able to automatically tune to
and bring in most listenable FM stations.
Harmony's ability to tune to more FM stations can be
further improved by using the included T-antenna,
mounting the T-antenna horizontally and high on a wall,
or using an external or cable FM antenna.
If a particular FM station that you would like to listen to
is still too weak to be tuned to automatically even with
the unit in DX mode, you may be able to tune to it
manually by repeatedly pressing and releasing the tune
( -or- ) buttons on the Harmony or on its remote, and
then pressing the “Mono” button on the remote (make
sure the word “Mono” is seen on the display). Keep in
mind that if the station is too weak, it may still be too
noisy to listen to.
