Listening to the radio

Important

To listen to the radio, press the

TUNER button

to set the remote control to FM/AM control mode. The
LCD screen on the remote control changes to the
TUNER screen.

Listening to the radio

The tuner can receive both FM and AM broadcasts, and
lets you memorize your favorite stations so you don’t have
to manually tune in every time you want to listen.

1

Switch to the tuner, then press repeatedly to

select the FM or AM band.
The display shows the band and frequency.

2

Tune to a frequency.

There are three tuning modes — manual, auto, and high-
speed:

Manual tuning – Press TUNE +/– repeatedly to
change the displayed frequency.

Auto tuning – Press and hold TUNE +/– until the
frequency display starts to move, then release. The
tuner will stop on the next station it finds. Repeat to
keep searching.

High-speed tuning – Press and hold TUNE +/– until
the frequency display starts to move rapidly. Keep the
button held down until you reach the frequency you
want. If necessary, fine tune the frequency using the
manual tuning method.

Improving poor FM reception

If you’re listening to an FM station in stereo but the
reception is weak, you can improve the sound quality by
switching to mono.

1

Press after tuning to an FM radio station.

2

Select ‘Tuner Setup’ then press ENTER.

3

Choose ‘FM Auto/Mono’ then press

ENTER.

4

Select ’FM Mono’ then press ENTER.

The mono indicator (

) lights when the tuner is in mono

reception mode.

Select

FM Auto above to switch back to auto-stereo

mode (the stereo indicator (

stereo broadcast).

Improving poor AM sound

The simplest way to improve the sound quality of AM
radio is to make sure that the TV in the room is switched
off. Also try changing the position and direction of the
AM loop antenna.

Changing the noise cut mode

If you find that the AM sound quality is bad even after
trying the above, you may be able to improve it using a
different noise cut mode. Just choose the one that
sounds best.

1

Press after tuning to an AM radio station.

2

Select ‘Tuner Setup’ then press ENTER.

3

Choose ‘Noise Cut’ then press ENTER.
