With Auto Memory Store, you can continually set strong
stations into your memory buttons without losing your
existing memory presets, which is especially handy while
traveling. Your radio will automatically set your memory
buttons to the strong local stations so you don't have to
continually manually tune to existing stations.

Activate Auto Memory Store by pushing the ªAUTO
PRESETº button once. Your radio will set the first five
strong stations of the band you are in (AM, FM1 or FM2)
into the memory buttons. The display will show ªAUTOº,
then run through the frequencies, stopping momentarily on
the stations being set into the memory buttons. The radio is
now in the ªAUTOº mode and this display will show
ªAUTOº each time a preset is activated.

[AS04000(ALL)05/95]
NOTE: If there are fewer than five strong stations in the
frequency band, the remaining unfilled buttons will
store the last strong station detected on the band.

[AS04100(ALL)05/95]
After all stations have been filled, the radio will begin
playing the station stored on memory button 1.

PRESETº button. Display will show ªAUTOº then ªOFFº.
