Using the receiver
1. Turn on the receiver by pressing the LMU button, select stereo or mono reception mode, or press the TI button to receive a traffic information station (see below). The display will show L, M, or U. The receiver can also be turned on by pressing the "PWR.VOL" knob.
2. Adjust the volume by turning the "PWR.VOL" knob.
3. Tune to the desired station (see Tuning to a Station and Programming a Tuning).
4. When tuning to a VHF station, the receiver will automatically switch to stereo reception mode. The ST symbol will appear on the display.
5. If the signal is weak, the reception band will be automatically narrowed in order to reduce noise.
6. If the signal is very weak, the receiver will automatically switch to mono reception mode.
7. Adjust the tone and balance (see Tone Control and Balance Control).
8. To turn off the receiver, press the "PWR.VOL" knob.
Tuning to a station
1. Tune to the desired station using one of the methods below. The display will show the tuning frequency.
Setting up in software mode
2. Used to tune to a pre-programmed station (see Programming the setup).
3. Press the LMU button several times until the selected information appears on the display.
4. Press the button with the number that was previously assigned to the desired station. The desired station is tuned in, and the display shows the button number of the desired station.
Continuous search mode
5. In this mode, the station is searched automatically. After receiving the station, the tuning is automatically stopped.
6. Press both sides of the TUNE SEEK button simultaneously and wait for a continuous beep. The receiver will automatically search for the nearest station with a higher or lower broadcast frequency.
7. After confident reception, the tuning stops. Each subsequent press of the button will continue the search until the next station is confidently received.
8. If tuning is not possible after a single scan across the entire frequency range due to a weak signal, the search will continue, but at increased sensitivity, and the DX symbol will appear on the display.
Manual setting
9. Press both sides of the TUNE SEEK button simultaneously for no more than 0.5 seconds. Each time the button is pressed, the frequency jumps to a frequency on which broadcasting is possible.
Programming the setup
1. Press the LMU button several times until the selected band designation L, M or U appears on the display.
2. You can set up to six stations in each selected range (on every button pressed). When installing a station, check the ranges in which the desired setting already exists.
3. Tune to the desired station (see Tuning to a station).
4. Press one of the station selection buttons and wait for the beep. The station will automatically turn on when you press this button, the number of which will appear on the display.
5. To store a new station in memory, repeat the procedure described above.
6. The preset station is cleared when the power is turned off (disconnection of the battery, blown fuse, etc.).
Receiving traffic information from the RDS system (radio data)
1. The receiver will automatically switch to the RDS station mode when switching to the VHF band. When switching, the display will show the name of the corresponding radio station and the RDS symbol.
2. If you tune in to a new VHF station broadcasting RDS information, the frequency value will appear on the display, and after 5 seconds the name of the corresponding radio station will appear.
3. Tuning to the desired station that broadcasts traffic information is done in one of the following ways.
Configuration by programming, automatic search and manual
4. The setup procedure is described above.
Tuning by scanning over the entire range
5. When the TP symbol appears on the display (Traffic Program), then this means that this station will broadcast traffic information and EON data.
6. The receiver switches to the TI range by pressing the "TI" button. The "TI" symbol will appear on the display.
7. If after 20 seconds after pressing the "TI" button the receiver does not find a station, it will start searching for the station based on the list of alternative frequencies (AF list), which ends when the station is found.
8. The receiver's transition to this mode is indicated by a sound signal and the SEARCH symbol on the display.
9. If it is not possible to tune into a station after a single scan across the entire range due to a weak signal, the scan will be repeated, but with increased sensitivity, as indicated by the DX symbol on the display.
10. If the signal is too weak, the receiver will stop searching and NOTHING will appear on the display for 2 seconds.
11. If the receiver does not tune to a TI-band station within another 20 seconds, scanning will start over.
12. When TI appears on the display, the receiver will receive a TI station only if tuning is performed by searching in automatic mode.
13. If you need to receive traffic information, and the station to which the receiver is tuned is broadcasting another program, press the TI button and hold it until the TA symbol appears on the display (Traffic Announcement).
14. When this symbol appears, the receiver stops receiving all programs except traffic information, or if there is no traffic information broadcast at the moment and a cassette is inserted into the player, the player is turned on, which automatically turns off when the traffic information broadcast begins.
15. After the end of the program or if the signal becomes weak, the previous program is switched on.
16. To return from the traffic information reception mode to the normal mode, press the TI button and hold until the TA symbol disappears from the display.
Setting to network tracking mode (NF mode). Used to search for an RDS station in the entire frequency band
17. Press the NF button for no more than 2 seconds, the receiver will tune to the RDS station and the received program will not be interrupted. The NF symbol will appear on the display.
18. If reception conditions deteriorate, tuning to a station broadcasting the same program will be done based on the list of alternative frequencies received from the RDS station.
Tone control
1. To adjust the bass response, press the MODE button repeatedly until BASS O appears on the display.
2. Then press the level button on either side and set the desired tone. The adjustment range is from BASS -10 to BASS +10, the tone level is displayed on the display.
3. To adjust the high frequency response, press the MODE button several times until TREB O appears on the display.
4. Then press the level button on either side and set the desired tone. The adjustment range is from TREB -10 to TREB +10, the tone level is displayed on the display.
Balance adjustment
Two speakers
1. Press the MODE button several times until BAL O appears on the display.
2. Then press the level button on either side and set the desired balance.
3. The balance adjustment range for the left and right speakers is from BAL L14 to BAL R14, the balance level is displayed on the display.
Four speakers
4. To adjust the balance between the left and right speakers, press the MODE button repeatedly until BAL O appears on the display.
5. Then press the level button on either side and set the desired balance.
6. The balance adjustment range is from BAL L14 to BAL +R14, the balance level is displayed on the display.
7. To adjust the balance between the front and rear speakers, press the MODE button repeatedly until FADE O appears on the display.
