Automatic preset tuning
You can also make use of an automatic preset tuning
function. By this function, this unit performs automatic tuning
and stores stations with strong signals sequentially. Up to 40
stations are stored automatically in the same way as in the
manual preset tuning method on the previous page.
1
Select the TUNER position with the INPUT SELECTOR
control, watching the display.
2
Press and hold the AUTO MEMO button for about 2
seconds.
* The MEMORY and AUTO TUNING indicators will flash.
This unit performs automatic tuning and received stations are
programmed to A1, A2 ... A8 sequentially.
When the automatic preset tuning is completed
The display shows the frequencies of the first preset station
(stored to A1).
Check the contents and the number of preset stations by
following the procedure of the section “To recall a preset
station” on the previous page.
To recall a preset station
Simply follow the procedure of the section “To recall a preset
station” on the previous page.
Notes
•
The automatic preset tuning search will be performed
through all frequencies until 40 stations are stored. If the
number of received stations is less than 40, the search will
stop after searching all frequencies.

<
U.K. and Europe models only

The unit is originally set so that only RDS stations are
programmed onto the area for FM stations by this
operation.
However, you can change the setting so that the unit can
program not noly RDS stations but also other FM stations.
(Refer to page 25 for details.)
•
With this function, only stations with sufficient signal
strength are stored automatically. If the station you want
to program is weak in signal strength, tune to it in
monaural manually and program it by following the
procedure of the section “To store stations” on the
previous page.
•
You can replace a preset station by another FM or AM
(MW or LW) station manually by simply following the
procedure of the section “To store stations” on the
previous page.
TUNING OPERATION
Fundamental rules of internal automatic preset tuning
operation
Basically, FM stations are programmed onto area A, B and
C, and AM stations are programmed onto area D and E (MW
stations are onto D and LW stations are onto E) in that order
automatically.
* If, for example, the number of received FM stations is not
enough to fill up three areas (A, B and C), AM (MW or LW)
stations are programmed closely from the preceeding
empty areas. In such a case, AM (MW) stations are
programmed from area B or C (and LW stations are from
area C or D.)
* Moreover, one area is programmed with stations of the
same band only. If, for example, the last FM station is
programmed to B4, B5–B8 will be programmed with no
station, and AM (MW) stations are programmed from area
C.

Memory back-up
The memory back-up circuit prevents the programmed
data from being lost even if the AC supply lead is
disconnected from the AC outlet or the power is cut due to
temporary power failure. If, however, the power is cut for
more than one week, the memory may be erased. If so, it
can be re-programmed by simply following the Preset
tuning steps.
