Presetting broadcast stations automatically
(Auto preset)
• Broadcast stations whose signals are too weak cannot be preset
automatically. To preset them, tune them in manually, then follow
the operation described at “Giving a name to the currently tuned in
broadcast station and presetting it”.
• Once auto presetting starts, it cannot be stopped before it is
completed. (It takes about 60 seconds for auto presetting to be
completed.)
