AM stations (540 – 1700 KHz). In the FM position, the radio will receive the FM band
(87.5 – 108 MHz). The AUX position is used to play external audio sources connected to
the radio using the rear-mounted AUX IN socket (such as PC, CD or MP3 players).
Select your desired band and then adjust the Main Tuning Knob to receive your desired
station.
The Main Tuning Knob is used to tune and search for radio stations on the selected band.
Adjust the Knob to receive the desired station. Note that FM stations are referenced on the
LEFT side of the main dial using the RED line on the LEFT side of the Main Tuning Knob.
When receiving AM stations, refer to the RIGHT side of the main dial using the RED line
on the right side of the Main Tuning Knob.
