Pressing and holding either button for longer
than 0.5 seconds will cause the radio to con-
tinue tuning rapidly in the selected direction
until the button is released at which point it
will seek the next available station.

AUTO-STORE TUNING (AS)
PRE-SET SCAN TUNING (PS)
Press this button momentarily to scan the 6
stations in the pre-set memories of the band in
use. The unit will stop at each pre-set station for
5 seconds before continuing to the next pre-set
station (the frequency on the display panel will
flash during Pre-Set Scan operation). Press
the button again momentarily to stop Pre-Set
Scan operation and remain on the selected fre-
quency.
Pressing the button for longer than 2 seconds
will activate the Auto-Store Tuning feature. The
radio will automatically scan the band in use
and enter strong stations into the pre-set
memory positions for that band. If you have al-
ready set the pre-set memories of that band to
your favorite stations, activating the Auto-Store
Tuning feature will erase those stations and
enter the new strong stations. This feature is
most useful when traveling in a new area where
you are not familiar with the local stations.

continue to hold the button in. A confirming
tone will be heard and the pre-set number
will appear on the display panel. The
station is now set into the memory of that
pre-set button and can be re-called at any
time by momentarily pressing that button.
4. Repeat the above procedure for the
remaining 5 pre-sets on the band in use
and for the other 4 bands of the unit.

EQUALIZER SELECTOR (EQ)
T
he "EQ" button applies preset sound effects to the
unit's audio output signal. The "EQ" button, when
pressed, will activate one of three operating modes
("ROCK, CLAS, or POP"). When the "EQ" function is
active, the bass and treble levels cannot be changed.
When the "EQ" function is not active, the unit returns to
the user-set bass and treble levels.

FM MONO/STEREO SELECTOR (MO/ST)
During FM radio operation, this button is used to se-
lect mono or stereo reception of the broadcast signal.
Under normal reception conditions, the unit should
be left in the stereo mode, as indicated by
on the
display panel when listening to an FM stereo signal. If
the stereo signal is too weak for comfortable listen-
ing, press the button to switch to mono reception (the
will disappear from the display panel and “MON”
will appear). To return to the stereo reception mode,
press the button again so that the “MON” indication
disappears and the
indication returns.

LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY PANEL
The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) panel displays the
frequency, time, and all activated functions, including
five bar graphs which provide a visual representation
of the volume level and the left and right channel bal-
ance levels. The volume level is represented by three
thin bar graphs. As the volume is increased, the num-
ber of illuminated segments will increase. The left
and right channels are represented by the wider bar
graphs. As the strength of the signal applied to either
the left or right channel increases, the number of illu-
minated segments will increase.
NOTE: It is a characteristic of LCD panels that, if
subjected to cold temperatures for an
extended period of time, they may take
longer to illuminate than under nor-
mal conditions. In addition, the visibil-
ity of the numbers on the LCD may
slightly decrease. The LCD read-out
will return to normal when the tempera-
ture increases to a normal range.
