Basic playback

Listening to the radio

The following steps show you how to tune in to FM and

AM radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and

manual (step) tuning functions. If you already know the

frequency of the station you want, see Tuning directly to a

station below. Once you are tuned to a station you can

memorize the frequency for recall later—see Saving

station presets below for more on how to do this.

1 Press

TUNER

to select the tuner.

2 Use BAND to change the band (FM or AM), if

necessary.

Each press switches the band between FM and AM.

3 Tune to a station.

There are three ways to do this:

Automatic tuning – To search for stations in the

currently selected band, press and hold TUNE /

for about a second. The receiver will start searching

for the next station, stopping when it has found one.

Repeat to search for other stations.

Manual tuning – To change the frequency one step

at a time, press TUNE /.

High speed tuning – Press and hold TUNE / for

high speed tuning. Release the button at the

frequency you want.

Improving FM sound

If the TUNED or STEREO indicator doesn’t light when

tuning to an FM station because the signal is weak, press

MPX to switch the receiver into mono reception mode.

This should improve the sound quality and allow you to

enjoy the broadcast.

Using Neural THX

This feature uses Neural Surround™, THX

technologies

to achieve optimal surround sound from FM radio.

• While listening to FM radio, press AUTO/ALC/

DIRECT for Neural THX listening.

See About Neural – THX Surround on page 103 for more

on this.

The Neural THX mode can be selected also with

STANDARD.

Tuning directly to a station

Sometimes, you’ll already know the frequency of the

station you want to listen to. In this case, you can simply

enter the frequency directly using the number buttons on

the remote control.

1 Press

TUNER

to select the tuner.

Use

BAND

to change the band (FM or AM),

necessary.

Each press switches the band between FM and AM.

3 Press

D.ACCESS

(Direct Access).

4 Use the number buttons to enter the frequency of

the radio station.

For example, to tune to 106.00 (FM), press 1, 0, 6, 0, 0.

If you make a mistake halfway through, press D.ACCESS

twice to cancel the frequency and start over.

Saving station presets

If you often listen to a particular radio station, it’s

convenient to have the receiver store the frequency for

easy recall whenever you want to listen to that station.

This saves the effort of manually tuning in each time. This

receiver can memorize up to 63 stations, stored in seven

banks, or classes (A to G) of 9 stations each. When saving

an FM frequency, the MPX setting (see above) is also

stored.

1 Tune to a station you want to memorize.

See Listening to the radio above for more on this.
