broadcasts, and lets you memorize your
favorite stations so you don’t have to manually
tune in every time you want to listen.

The display shows the band and frequency.

and high-speed:
•

repeatedly to change the displayed
frequency.

then release. The tuner will stop on the next
station it finds. Repeat to keep searching.
•
High-speed tuning

until the frequency display starts
to move rapidly. Keep the button held down
