[. . . ] It does not light when a weak FM stereo broadcast is being received. s Signal Strength Indicator Optimum tuning points are indicated by the number of lighted seg ments. SIGNAL STRENGTH s HI-BLEND button Weak FM stations may exhibit noisy and hissy sound quality in stereo mode. The high blend circuit blends only the highest frequencies into mono, while the rest of the audio range remains in stereo, with substantially reduced noise and hiss. Each press switches between ON or OFF. Hold down the DISPLAY button to display "FM Signal" and the signal strength in decibels (dB). s MODE button If an AM station is being received, this button switches the mode between auto-tuning and manual tuning. If an FM station with a very weak and noisy signal is received, improve the situation by switching to monaural, even if it is a stereo broadcast. At this time, the MONO indicator will light up. When it is noisy, turning ON HI-BLEND is also effective. The three settings that can be selected with the MODE button can be used to improve the reception of FM stations with weak signals. s Displaying station information During FM reception of any RDS station with PS, or when characters are being entered, the PS, or character information is displayed. When you want to see the frequency, press the DISPLAY button. Press it again to return to the original display. If there is no PS or character display, the frequency will be displayed. 12 Receiving RDS RDS reception is only available in areas where RDS broadcasts are available. RDS may not be received.
