If the STEREO indicator remains off
Press FM MODE when an FM stereo broadcast is
received.
If an FM stereo program is distorted
The STEREO indicator flashes. Press FM MODE to
change to monaural (MONO). You will not have the
stereo effect but the distortion will be reduced. To
return to stereo mode, press this button again.
If you cannot tune in a station and the entered
numbers are flashing
Make sure you've entered the right frequency. If not,
press DIRECT and re-enter the frequency you want.
If the entered numbers still flash, the frequency is not
used in your area.
To watch FM simulcast TV programs
Make sure that you tune in the simulcast program both
on the TV (or the VCR) and on the receiver.
If you enter a frequency not covered by the tuning
interval
The entered value is automatically rounded up or down
to the closest covered value.
Tuning intervals for direct tuning are:
FM: 50 kHz intervals
AM: 9 kHz intervals (to change to 10 kHz intervals
[(except Australia, Singapore and Malaysia
models) see page 25]
