Using the Tuner

You can listen to FM and AM stations. Stations can be tuned in
manually, automatically, or from preset memory storage.

❏

Before listening to the radio:

• Make sure that both the FM and AM antennas are correctly

connected. (See pages 4 and 5).

One Touch Radio

Just press the FM/AM button to turn on the System and start play-
ing the station you were last tuned to.

❏

You can switch from any other sound source to the radio by
pressing the FM/AM button.

Tuning In a Station

Press the FM/AM button.

The Band and Frequency you were last tuned to appear on the
display.
(If the last station was selected using the preset number, the
preset number appears first.)
Each time you press the button, the band alternates between
FM and AM.

Select a station using one of the following
methods.

• Manual Tuning (Using the Unit only)

Briefly press the

button on the Unit to move

from frequency to frequency until you find the station you
want.

• Auto Tuning (Using the Unit only)

If you hold down the

button on the Unit for 1

second or more and then release it, the frequency changes
down, or up, automatically until a station is found.

• Preset Tuning (Possible only after presetting sta-

tions)
Preset tuning using the Unit:

Select the preset number you want, using the

button.

Example:

Press the

button until the preset number “P12” appears

on the display. Then, the display will show the preset
number’s band and frequency.

Preset tuning using the Remote Control:

Enter the preset number you want to recall using the numer-
ic keys. See “Entering the Number with the Remote Con-
trol” on page 8.

Example:

Press +10, then 2 to recall the preset number 12. Then, the
display will show the preset number’s band and frequency.
