  If the Automatic Tuning does not stop on the exact frequency of the station, for 

example, it stops on 88.9 MHz instead of 88.8 MHz, use the manual tuning method

TIPS FOR BEST RADIO RECEPTION 

AM -   The AM antenna is built inside the radio. If AM reception is weak, change the 

position of the unit until the internal antenna picks up the strongest signal. 

FM -   If FM reception is weak, fully extend the FM ANTENNA (#14) and vary the 

position and location of the antenna until you find the strongest signal. 

 

To set / recall the radio presets: 

The unit allows you to store up to 20

 FM s

tations and 20 AM stations for easy recall at 

any time.

.
