(c) Tone and balance
How good an audio program sounds to you
is largely determined by the mix of the
treble, midrange, and bass levels. In fact,
different kinds of music and vocal pro-
grams usually sound better with different
mixes of treble, mid−range, and bass.
A good balance of the left and right stereo
channels and of the front and rear sound
levels is also important.
Keep in mind that if you are listening to a
stereo recording or broadcast, changing
the right/left balance will increase the vol-
ume of one group of sounds while de-
creasing the volume of another.
1. Push the “TUNE/FILE”/“AUDIO”
knob.
2. Touch “SOUND” to display the
sound adjustment screen.

tween the left and right, touch “L” or

AUDIO/VIDEO SYSTEM

Turn the knob clockwise to step up the
station band or counterclockwise to
step down.
Your radio automatically changes to stereo
reception when a stereo broadcast is re-
ceived. “ST” appears on the screen. If the
signal becomes weak, the radio reduces
the amount of channel separation to pre-
vent the weak signal from creating noise.
If the signal becomes extremely weak, the
radio switches from stereo to mono recep-
tion. In this case, “ST” disappears from the
screen.
(b) Presetting a station
1. Tune in the desired station.
2. Touch one of the touchscreen but-
tons (1 — 6) you want and hold it until
a beep is heard. This sets the station to
the touchscreen button and the fre-
quency appears on the touchscreen
button.
Each radio mode (AM, FM1 or FM2) can
store up to 6 stations. To change the pre-
set station to a different one, follow the
same procedure.
The preset station memory is cancelled
when the power source is interrupted by
battery disconnection or a blown fuse.
