Listening to the Radio
1.Turn on the tuner's power by pressing
button [8].
Each time the button is pushed the main
unit switches between tuner and power off
modes.
* This operation will differ if there is a CD
inserted in the CD player. Refer to the sec-
tion on the source switch on page 5 for
details.
2.Press Button [3] to select a band.
FIFI
Pere
(FM1)
(FM2)
(FM3) = (MW/LW)
Use button [4] to switch between MW (531-
1,602 kHz) and LW (153-281 kHz).
3.Use seek tuning to tune in a frequency.
Ensure that "MANU" [33] is not indicated
on the display. (If so, turn it off by simulta-
neously pressing the (+) and the (-) sides of
button [4]).
Press either the (+) side or the (-) side of
button [4]. When the (+) side is pressed, the
tuner will automatically receive high fre-
quencies.
When the (-) side is pressed, it will automati-
cally receive low frequencies.
4. Adjust volume and tone (see page 5).
5.Assign the tuned frequency to one of the
Buttons in Bank [12]~[17] (preset memo-
ry).
Press and hold down one of the buttons in
Bank [12]~[17] for at least 2 seconds. The
frequency is assigned to the selected but-
ton when the preset number [30] stops
flashing on the display. Up to 18 FM sta-
tions (6 each for FM1, FM2 and FM3), and
six MW/LW stations can be assigned to the
preset memory buttons in Bank [12]~[17].
6.Once a frequency is assigned to a Button
in Bank [12]~[17], you just need to press
that Button to tune it in.
This also causes the number of the button
pressed to appear at Position [30] on the
display.
Adjusting Seek Sensitivity
The seek tuning function of this tuner lets
you select between a local setting for recep-
tion of strong stations only, and a DX (dis-
tant) setting for reception of weaker sta-
tions. The local setting also has 4 seek tun-
ing sensitivity levels for FM and 2 levels for
MW/LW to match local conditions.
Changing the Local Seek Sensitivity
1.Use button [3] to select a band.
2.Hold down the button [10] for more than
2 seconds, and the display will show you
the current local seek sensitivity
(Example: "LOC-2") for about 5 seconds.
3.While the local seek sensitivity remains
on the display, press the (+) side of but-
ton [4] to increase the sensitivity level,
and the (-) side to decrease the level as
shown below.
FM
: LOC-1 = LOC-2 = LOC-3 = LOC-4
MW/LW: LOC-1 = LOC-2
The LOC-4 setting allows reception of
only the strongest stations, while lower
settings let you receive progressively
weaker stations.
* The display of local seek sensitivity re-
turns to the frequency when about 5 sec-
onds have elapsed after the change of
sensivity.
Switching between Local and DX
Press button [10] to switch between Local
and DX (distant) seek tuning. When the
frame of local seek [35] is lit, seek tuning is
performed with the local seek sensitivity.
Otherwise, seek tuning is performed with
the DX seek sensitivity.
Manual Tuning
Use manual tuning when stations are too
weak to be picked up by seek tuning.
1.Turn on "MANU" [33] by simultaneously
pressing the (+) side and the (-) side of
button [4].
2.Each press of the (+) side of button [4] in-
creases the frequency in 50 kHz steps in
the FM band, 9 kHz in the MW band and 1
kHz in the LW band. Pressing the (-) side
of button [4] decreases the frequency.
Holding down either side of button [4]
changes the frequency at high speed.
Switching between FM Stereo and
Mono
Generally, it is best to allow the ARC
(Automatic Reception Control) function to
automatically set the optimum listening
conditions. CD [37] turns on during stereo
broadcast is in reception. When there is a
large amount of noise, you can press but-
ton [9] for clearer mono reception (The
frame of FM mono [34] turns on).
