TUNING THE RADIO
Your receiver has four types of electronic tuning — manual,
automatic, direct, and memory.
Note:
To listen to stations with weak signals, we recommend manual
tuning.
Manual and Automatic Tuning
1. Press
FM
or
AM
on the front panel (or on the remote control) to
select the desired band. The receiver tunes to that band and
displays the frequency last selected.
Note:
If
CH
appears on the right side of the display, press
TUNING MODE
to switch from preset to manual-tuning mode.
MANUAL
briefly appears.
2.
To manually select the next higher or lower frequency,
press
TUNING
UP
or
DOWN
. Hold down
UP
or
DOWN
to rapidly
scan up or down through the frequencies. Release the button to
stop scanning.
To automatically search for the next higher or lower frequency with a
strong signal,
briefly hold down
TUNING
UP
or
DOWN
. The
receiver searches up or down the band, stopping on the next
frequency with a strong signal.
Notes:
•
TUNED
appears when the received signal is strong.
•
STEREO
appears when the received FM broadcasts are in
stereo.
• If you press
TUNING
UP
at the top of the frequency range or
TUNING
DOWN
at the bottom of the frequency range, the
frequency at the opposite end of the range appears.
Direct Tuning (Remote Control Only)
1. Press
FM
or
AM
on the front panel (or on the remote control) to
select the desired band. The receiver tunes to and displays the
frequency last selected in that band.
2. Press
DIRECT TUNING
on the remote control.
DIRECT
IN
scrolls by, followed by
AM
– – – –

for AM or

– – –

flashes.
3. Enter the desired frequency using the remote control’s number
buttons.
Notes:
• If you press
1
to enter a FM frequency, such as 103.5,
10
automatically appears. If you also press the zero, the
frequency that appears would be
100.30
.
• The last zero always appears automatically in both FM and
AM frequencies.
• If you do not press a key within 5 seconds, the receiver exits
direct tuning. Start over at Step 2.
Memory Tuning
Memory tuning lets you instantly tune to a stored frequency. You can
store up to 30 AM and 30 FM frequencies in the receiver’s memory.
The receiver automatically stores the first 30 stations found in the
selected band into the memory. You can also manually store a station
into memory.

1. Press
FM
or
AM
on the front panel (or on the remote control) to
select the desired band. The receiver tunes to that band and the
last selected frequency appears.
2. Hold down
MEMORY
for more than 2 seconds.
MEMORY
and
CH
appear and the receiver scans through the frequencies,
beginning with the low end (87.5 MHz for FM or 530 kHz for
AM).
3. When the receiver finds a station, it stores it in the first memory
channel, the selected
CH
number appears, and the receiver looks
for the next station. When the receiver finds the thirtieth station
or when it reaches the high end of the frequency range,
MEMORY
disappears and the receiver tunes to the lowest frequency station
in the band.
Repeat these steps to automatically store stations in the other band.

Follow these steps to manually store a station, or to replace a station
already stored in memory.
1. Press
FM
or
AM
on the front panel (or on the remote control) to
select the desired band. The receiver tunes to and displays the
frequency last selected in that band.
Note:
If
CH
appears on the right side of the display, press
TUNING MODE
to switch to manual-tuning mode.
MANUAL
briefly appears.
2. Tune to the desired station (see “Manual and Automatic Tuning”
on Page 10).
3. Press
MEMORY
.
MEMORY
flashes on the display.
4. While
MEMORY
flashes, press
TUNING
UP
or
DOWN
until the
desired memory channel number appears.
5. Press
MEMORY
again to store the station immediately. Or, wait
about 5 seconds and the station is automatically stored in the
selected channel.
Notes:
• If you store a frequency in a memory channel that already
contains a frequency, you replace the previous frequency.
• If your receiver is disconnected from AC power for several days,
it loses all the stored frequencies.
