Distance: About 23 ft (7 m) from the front of the remote sensor Angle: About 30° in each direction of the front of the remote sensor 10 VACUUMFLUORESCENTDISPLAY(VFD): Provide visual information on the settings, conditions, status and other information relevant to the currently tuned station. 6 IDENTIFICATION OF CONTROLS FRONTPANEL 11 PRESET/TUNECONTROLKNOB: The function of this control knob depends upon the selected tuning mode via the PRESET/TUNE button. Toggle [PRESET/TUNE] button to switch between "Preset" and "Tune" mode. Presetmode: Rotate the PRESET/TUNE control to the left to scroll to a lower Preset number; rotate the PRESET/TUNE control to the right to scroll to a higher Preset number. This is a "wrap-around" function ­ upon reaching the last stored Preset number, preset search will continue on with the first stored Preset number and viceversa. Tunemode: Rotate the PRESET/TUNE control in either direction for more than 1 second to engage automatic tuning. The tuner will stop at the next sufficiently strong signal it encounters. Note that this function "wraps" ­ that is, it will continue to search from one end of the AM or FM band to the other until it stops at a strong signal. Rotate the PRESET/TUNE control again for more than 1 second to start searching again. By briefly rotating the PRESET/TUNE control in either direction, manual tuning is engaged for precise tuning to a specific frequency. With each brief rotation, the tuner will take 0. 05 MHz steps at FM band and 10 kHz (120V version) or 9 kHz (230V version) at AM band. When tuned accurately to a station, "TUNED" will be illuminated in the VFD. The antenna bars displayed below the ANTENNA icon in the VFD reflects the signal strength of the tuned station. Automatic tuning is available on both AM and FM band. 7 SVENSKA NEDERLANDS DEUTSCH ITALIANO ESPAÑOL FRANÇAIS ENGLISH IDENTIFICATION OF CONTROLS REARPANEL ENGLISH FRANÇAIS ESPAÑOL ITALIANO DEUTSCH NEDERLANDS SVENSKA 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ATTENTION!

It will usually work best when mounted on a vertical surface such as a wall, with arms fully outstretched forming a horizontal "T" perpendicular to the origin point of the signal. 2 AMANTENNATERMINAL: Connect the supplied AM loop antenna to these terminals. If an external AM antenna is used, make connections to the AM and GND terminals in accordance with the instructions supplied with the antenna. Refer also to the item about ASSEMBLING THE LOOP ANTENNA at the LISTENING TO AM/FM RADIO section of the OPERATION page. 3 OUTPUT(L, R): Connect to the corresponding analog audio input of an amplifier, receiver or stereo system. [. . . ] In most areas you will find from one to several RDS-enabled stations, but it is by no means impossible that your favorite stations will not be broadcasting RDS data. VIEWRDSTEXT When an RDS-enabled FM broadcast is tuned, the station's program-service name (PS) will be shown in the VFD (i. e. , "ROCK 101") and a "RDS" symbol will also be illuminated. Press the [DISPLAY] key to toggle the readout between this and the station's radio-text (RT) readout, if any, which might scroll song or artist name, or any other text of the station's choosing. 11 SVENSKA NEDERLANDS DEUTSCH ITALIANO ESPAÑOL FRANÇAIS ENGLISH REFERENCE TROUBLESHOOTING ENGLISH FRANÇAIS Noisyreception, hiss.
