If the entered numbers still flash, the frequency is not used in your area. * For models of area code CEL, CEK: FM/AM. 30GB 5 If you've tuned in an AM station, adjust the direction of the AM loop antenna for optimum reception. Automatic tuning If you don't know the frequency of the station you want, you can let the receiver scan all available stations in your area. 6 Repeat steps 2 to 5 to receive another station. Tips 1 Press TUNER. The last received station is tuned in. · If you do not remember the precise frequency, press TUNING + or TUNING ­ after entering the value close to the frequency you want. The receiver automatically tunes in the station you want. If the frequency seems to be higher than the entered value, press TUNING +, and if the frequency seems to be lower than the entered value, press TUNING ­. · If "STEREO" flashes in the display and the FM stereo reception is poor, press FM MODE to change to monaural (MONO). You will not be able to enjoy the stereo effect, but the sound will be less distorted. To return to stereo mode, press FM MODE again. The tuning scale differs depending on the area code as shown in the following table. For details on area codes, see page 4. Area code FM AM 2 Press FM** or AM** to select the FM or AM band. 3 Press TUNING + or TUNING ­. Press TUNING + to scan from low to high; press TUNING ­ to scan from high to low. The receiver stops scanning whenever a station is received. When the receiver reaches either end of the band Receiving Broadcasts Scanning is repeated in the same direction. 4 To continue scanning, press TUNING + or TUNING ­ again. ** For models of area code CEL, CEK: FM/AM.
