Using the tuner
Setting the channel step
The tuner has been factory preset to the channel
allocation value for the area in which you bought it. If it is
incorrect for where you’re using it, you may experience
reduced sound quality. Check that it is set correctly for
your region or area (ask your local dealer if you’re
unsure).

Finding a station
The following steps show you how to tune in to FM and
AM radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and
manual (step) tuning functions. If you already know the
exact frequency of the station you want to listen to, see
Tuning directly to a station
below. Once you are tuned to
a station you can memorize the frequency for recall
later—see
Memorizing station presets
on page 27 for
more on how to do this.

Each press switches the band between FM and AM.

Automatic tuning
To search for stations in the currently selected band,
press and hold either the

this step to search for other stations.
Manual tuning
To change the frequency one step at a time, press the
TUNE +/–
buttons.
High speed tuning
Press and hold the
TUNE +/–
buttons for high speed
tuning, releasing the button once the desired
frequency is reached.
Tuning directly to a station
Sometimes, you'll already know the frequency of the
station you want to listen to. In this case, you can simply
enter the frequency directly using the number buttons on
the remote control.

Each press switches the band between FM and AM.
