Listening to the Radio
When you want to play a radio programme,
you can have the tuner automatically scan
the radio frequencies and tune in the
stations with clear signals. This feature
saves you time in searching for stations
with clear signals.
However, stations with weak signals may
be skipped by automatic tuning. Manually
tune in stations with weak signals.

Press TUNER/BAND repeatedly until
the band you want appears and in the

frequencies, and stops when it finds a
