Listening to the radio
1. Switch your audio system to listen to the radio (AM/FM button) and select a broadcast band.
This button selects the AM/FM1/FM2 broadcast bands.
2. Select the desired radio station (radio fixed frequency buttons).
If the frequencies of radio stations are memorized in advance, you can select one of them. You can memorize up to 6 AM radio stations and up to 12 FM radio stations, (6 radio stations each on FM1 and FM2).
Introduction to the memory of radio reception frequencies
1. Use the AM/FM button to select the AM, FM1 or FM2 broadcast band.
2. Use the tuning button to select the desired radio station.
If you press the button for a short time, the frequency will change little by little (manual setting).
If you press the button before a beep sounds, the frequency will change until a radio station is received.
If the received signal is weak and you are unable to automatically tune in to a radio station, tune in to that station manually.
3. Click (approx. for 2 sec.) on one of the fixed radio frequency buttons until a beep sounds.
If the power is turned off (for example, if the battery was removed or the fuse changed), the data entered into the memory is erased. After replacing the battery or replacing the fuse, memorize radio frequencies again.
Automatic entry into the memory of radio reception frequencies
This mode can be used when you enter an area where the previously memorized radio station frequencies are not received.
Click on the auto select button (indicator will flash on the display «A.SEL»).
Stations with strong signals will automatically be memorized in order of increasing frequency (6 radio stations in the AM band and 6 radio stations in the FM band). After entering frequencies into memory, the indicator will light up «A.SEL». To disable the specified mode, press the automatic selection button again. In this case, the frequencies of the radio stations that were entered earlier will return to the memory.
If there are not enough radio stations to fill the entire memory, the remainder will be blank. If you press a button that was not memorized, the frequency will be displayed «0».
The frequencies of radio stations memorized in automatic mode can be changed individually.
Switching on the information station
If you press the button to turn on the information station, the display lights up «T1» and information station reception starts. When switching stations by pressing the tuning button, the display will show (1620 kHz <--> 1629 kHz).
To disable this station, press the information station enable button again.
Note. Instead of information station frequencies, you can enter other station frequencies.
