STATION TUNING
• Switch the unit on with the
POWER
button.
– The display indicates the frequency tuned to – on
FM
in
MHz
and on
AM
in
kHz
.
Frequency Tuning in the FM Band
Select the FM band
You hear the station last tuned to in the FM band.
Manual tuning
• Tune to the desired station by briefly pressing one of the
buttons
TUNING
3
or
TUNING
4
.
Each button pressure will change the frequency by 50 kHz.
• If the
TUNING
3
or
TUNING
4
button is kept pressed, the
frequency range will be scanned in 50 kHz steps at high
speed until the respective button is released.
Automatic tuning (SCAN)
• This frequency search is started by pressing the
SCAN
button.
–
Short pressure:
Search is started in direction of higher
frequencies.
–
Long pressure:
Search is started in direction of lower
frequencies.
– The search function operates with 50 kHz steps.
• The automatic
search will stop as
soon as it has found
a station worthy of
reception (of a
signal strength
sufficient for good reception). It then can be restarted with
the
SCAN
button (brief or long pressure).
Frequency tuning in the AM Bands
Select the AM range
You will hear the station last tuned to in the respective AM
band.
Selecting an AM band
• Press the
AM
button repeatedly until the desired AM band
is selected. This is indicated in the display. Each pressure
on the button steps through the AM band in the order LW ->
MW -> SW -> LW -> MW -> etc.
Adjusting the tuning steps
• The tuning steps are adjusted with the
STEP
button.
– With the unit switched on, you can switch between:
1 kHz or 9 kHz on LW
1 kHz or 5 kHz on SW
1 kHz or 9 resp. 10 kHz on MW.
The respective waveband must be selected.
• Repeatedly press the
STEP
button until
the desired tuning
step value (e.g. STEP
9kHz) is indicated in
the display.
• With the unit switched off, you can switch between the tuning
steps 9 kHz and 10 kHz (for USA radio stations) in the MW band.
If the unit is not yet switched off, do this:
• Press the
AM
button
• Then repeatedly press the
STEP
button until the desired
step value is indicated in the display.
After approx. 5 seconds, the display will indicate again the
clock time.
You can switch between 9 kHz and 10 kHz tuning steps:
– as soon as the
AM
button has been pressed after switching
off the unit,
– until you switch the unit on again.
This is a precaution to avoid accidental tuning step switching.
• When activating the
automatic tuning
mode, the unit auto-
matically switches to
the higher tuning
step.
However, the 9 kHz or 10 kHz choice in the MW band is
retained.
Manual tuning
• Tune to the desired station by briefly pressing one of the
buttons
TUNING
3
or
TUNING
4
.
• Each pressure on the button performs a tuning step of the
value adjusted for the respective waveband (see chapter
'Adjusting the tuning steps').
• If the
TUNING
3
or
TUNING
4
button is kept pressed, the
respective waveband will be scanned at high speed with the
tuning steps selected for it. Releasing the pressed button
will stop scanning.
Automatic tuning (SCAN)
• This frequency search is started by pressing
SCAN
.
–
Short pressure:
Search is started in direction of higher
frequencies.
–
Long pressure:
Search is started in direction of lower
frequencies.
– The search function operates with the tuning steps:
9 kHz on LW
5 kHz on SW
9 or 10 kHz on MW
– If a lower step value has been adjusted, the unit will
automatically select the tuning steps indicated above.
• The automatic search will stop as soon as it has found a
station worthy of reception (of a signal strength sufficient
for good reception). It then can be restarted with the
SCAN
button (brief or long pressure).
