OPERATING YOUR T 3 continued

Preset Stations

Instead of tuning to find your favorite stations, you can save them as Presets and recall
them instantly from a memory bank of 1 - 30. Preset numbers appear at the lower left 
side of the display as P1 – P30. You can save up to 30 FM stations and 30 AM stations. 
You need the remote control to select the preset numbers for stations you want to save.  

Saving Stations as Presets

Tune to the station you wish to save in preset memory by either Seek or Manual tuning.

Press the 

Mem

button on the remote control or the 

Memory

button on the front panel briefly.

MEMORY in the front panel display will flash and the small indicator at the right of the 
panel will illuminate red to let you know that the memory is ready to accept a new preset

Press the desired buttons 

P 1- P 9 & 0. 

SAVED will appear in the display for two seconds confirming the station is now saved 
as a preset.

Before you can tune another station and save it as a preset, you must press the 

Seek

>

or the 

Manual

>

button on the remote control or the 

< Select >

button on the front 

panel until 

< SEEK >

or 

< MANUAL >

is displayed.

Repeat steps 1-6 above to save additional stations as presets.

YOU SHOULD KNOW

For FM, the display shows 108 when you select a preset number that doesn’t have an FM station
saved to it. For AM, the display shows 1720 when you select a preset number that doesn’t have
an AM station saved to it. This enables you to distinguish between preset numbers that you’ve
already assigned and those that are available. You can reassign a preset number to a new station
by repeating the Saving Stations as Presets above. 

After you press the 

Memory

or 

Mem

button you need to press a preset number button within 3

seconds while the memory bank remains open. If you press the 

Memory

or 

Mem

button but

don’t press a preset button, the existing preset station (if any) will remain unchanged. 

For two digit presets, press the second preset number button within a few seconds. For
example, for preset 17, press 

P 1

then 

P 7

right after. For preset 30, press 

P 3,

then 

0

right after.

After you press the button to save a single digit preset, there will be a 2-3 second delay until it
is saved or recalled. You can eliminate this delay if you press 

0

before you press the preset

number button. Example, for preset 6, first press 

0

, then press 

P 6. 

You can’t save a station as a preset while the T 3 display shows < PRESET >. You must select 
< MANUAL > or < SEEK > before saving the station.  

Selecting Preset Stations

Now that your favorite stations are saved as presets, you can recall them on the front 
panel or with the remote control. There are several ways to recall preset stations. 

Selecting Individual Preset Stations from the Remote Control 

Turn on the T 3 by pressing the 

On-Off

button on the front panel or the 

On

button on 

the remote control. 

Press the preset buttons on the remote control for the preset station you want to listen 
to (

P 1, P 2,

etc.).
