The TUNE/PRESET button toggles between

PRESET SCAN Button

This button activates a preset scanning fea-
ture. When you press the button, the tuner
will automatically scan through all memorized
station preset, playing each for five seconds
before moving to the next. To stop the station
scanning on the desired station preset, press
the button again.

scanning will start with the next higher pre-
set number and continue through all preset
stations, stopping on the initial preset. If a
PRESET station is not currently tuned when
the button is pressed, scanning will start from
PRESET 1 and continue to PRESET 30.

FM MONO

The FM MONO button changes the FM
mode from stereo reception to mono recep-
tion. In stereo mode, a stereo signal will be
heard if the station is broadcasting a stereo
signal and there is sufficient signal strength.
A stereo indicator will light in the front panel
display. In mono mode, a mono signal will
be heard even if the station is broadcasting
a stereo signal.
: Switching to mono mode can be a
NOTE
useful way to improve the reception of weak
or distant FM signals. Less signal strength is
required for clean mono reception than for
stereo reception.
