to the next station, press and hold the 

TUN   

or   buttons again.

Manual Station Preset

To manually store stations in the station memories:
1.  Select the required station frequency using the 

TUN

   or   buttons.

2.  When  the  station  is  tuned,  press  and  hold  the  required  station  preset 

number 1 - 6 for more than 2 seconds. The selected station will be stored 

in that preset memory and the preset number will be displayed.

To recall station memories, briefly press the required station preset number 1 - 6.   

Auto Memory Store AMS

Use  the  Auto  Memory  Store

  AMS 

function  to  automatically  locate  stations 

and store them in memory. In FM mode, stations are stored in order of signal 

strength with the strongest signals being stored first. In AM mode, stations are 

stored in the sequence in which they are found.
To  automatically  store  stations  in  memory,  press  and  hold  the 

AMS

  button 

for  more  than  1  second.  'ATP'  will  be  displayed  when  Auto  Memory  Store  is 

functioning.
•  In FM mode, the radio will begin tuning upwards through the entire selected 

band (FM1, FM2 or FM3), starting at the currently selected frequency and 

returning to that frequency when finished. The memories for that band will 

then contain the six strongest FM stations in your area.

•  In  the  AM  mode  the  radio  will  begin  tuning  upwards  (from  the  currently 

selected  frequency)  and  will  store  the  first  six  stations  found.  Tuning  will 

then stop.

Note:

  If  the  AM  stations  you  wish  to  store  were  not  included  because 

the memories were filled up by other unwanted stations, select a frequency to 

start from that which is just below the stations you wish to store (using the 

TUN 

 

or   buttons, then press the 

AMS

 button. Stations will be then located and 

stored starting from the selected frequency. Alternatively, if the memories were 

filled by weak unwanted stations, select the Local mode (by pressing the LOC 

button)  so  that  only  the  stronger  local  stations  are  located  and  stored  -  see 

Local/Distant operation described below.

Mono/Stereo M/S

The

  M/S 

button  can  be  used  to  select  either  Mono  or  Stereo  reception  when 

in FM mode.
• 

Mono: 

Selecting  Mono  improves  reception  when  FM  signals  are  weak  or 

noisy,  by  disabling  stereo  detection.  When  selected,  there  is  no  indication 

on the display. Note: MONO selection is only available on the FM, FM2 or 

FM3 bands.

• 

Stereo: 

Select stereo for normal stereo listening on the FM radio bands. When 

stereo is selected and a stereo signal is being received, 

ST

 is 

displayed.
