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 buttons (1 — 6) you
want and hold it until a beep is heard.
This sets the station to the button and
the frequency appears on the 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.
