Listening to a Radio Broadcast
When the radio power switch is moved to the ON position, the LED lights up,
the radio frequency appears in the display, and you can listen to the radio.
Whenusingthealarmtolistentotheradio,leavetheradiopowerswitchinthe

Search tuning
Use the or buon to tune the radio.
Each time you press a buon, the AM frequency will change by 9 kHz (or 10 kHz),
or the FM frequency will change by 0.1 MHz (or 0.05 MHz).
Scan tuning
Hold down the or buon to tune the radio.
The frequency continues to change, then automatically stops at the frequency of
the rst radio station that is received.
Holding down the buon again will continue tuning the radio, stopping at the
frequency of the next radio station that is received.
Strongnoisemaycausethetuningtostop;however,holdingdownthebuonagain

It may not be possible to receive a radio broadcast from rooms in the center of an
apartment or building. In that case, place the radio near an opening (window or
door) facing outside as much as possible. In addition, reception may be improved
by extending the antenna and adjusting its angle for FM stations or facing the
radio toward the AM radio station.
AM
FM
FM stations are normally received in stereo; however, if the radio waves are weak,
the station may automatically be switched to monaural, which has less noise.
