Chapter 3: the Radio
Listening to the
Radio
When you want to play a radio program,
you can have the tuner automatically scan
the radio frequencies and tune in the
stations with clear signals. This feature
saves you time in searching for stations
with clear signals. However, stations with
weak signals may be skipped by automatic
tuning. Manually tune in the ones skipped
by automatic tuning.
1
Press TUNER/BAND (or BAND on the
remote) repeatedly until the band you
want appears in the display.
As you press this button, the band
changes as follows:
Latin-American and Australian
models:
FM ˜ AM
Other models:
FM n MW n SW
2
Press TUNING MODE repeatedly until
“AUTO” appears in the display.

Turn the JOG dial clockwise to scan a
higher frequency station. To tune in a
lower frequency station, turn the JOG
dial counter-clockwise.
The tuner starts scanning radio
frequencies, and stops automatically
when it finds a clear station.
“TUNED” appears in the display.
“STEREO” also appears if the tuned FM
station is broadcasting in stereo.
4
If you do not want to listen to the station
selected, turn the JOG dial again to
restart the scan.
When the desired station is not
tuned in
Automatic tuning may skip stations with a
weak signals. Tune in the station manually.

“MANUAL” appears in the display.

desired station is tuned in.

reception

MW/SW (AM).
To change the MW (AM) tuning
interval (except for the Middle
Eastern model)
The MW (AM) tuning interval is preset to 9
kHz in the factory. If you need to change
the interval, do as follows:
1 Turn on the power.
2 Change the band to MW (AM).
3 Turn off the power.
4 Turn the power back on while pressing
ENTER/NEXT.
After changing the MW (AM) tuning
interval, reset the preset radio stations. To
reset the interval to the factory setting,
follow the same procedure.
When an FM program is not clear to receive
Press STEREO/MONO on the remote so
that “MONO” appears in the display. There
will be no stereo effect, but the reception
will improve. Press STEREO/MONO again
to restore the stereo effect.
One Touch Play feature
Press TUNER/BAND when the power is
off. You will be able to start listening to the
last received station without pressing any
other buttons.
