tions using the Remote Control.

can preset the stations you want into memory by following 
one of the presetting methods below.

Auto Presetting

In each band, you can automatically preset FM-30, AM-15

Manual Presetting for the desired preset numbers.

CAUTION:

• Even if the system is unplugged or if the

power failure occurs, the preset stations
will be stored for about 24 hours. However,
in case the preset stations are erased, you
will need to preset the stations again. 

To Change the FM  
Reception Mode

When you are tuned into an FM stereo broadcast, the 
“STEREO” indicator lights up and you can hear stereo ef-
fects.

can select Monaural mode. Reception improves, but you
lose stereo effect.

so that the “MONO” indicator lights up on the dis-
play.
