Panasonic RS-4360DFT - Listening to the Radio

LISTENING TO THE RADIO
1) Set the Power/Function Switch@® to ON, and the Program
Source Selector to RADIO.
2) Setthe Band Selector® to the desired band: FM, MW, SW1,
SW2, or SW3.
3) With FM reception, set the FM Mode/Muting Switch@ to
the desired position.
4) Tune in the desired station with the Tuning Control®.
5) Adjust the Volume@, Balance@, Bass@, and Treble@ Con-
trots.
Note:
* For receiving weak FM stations, keep the FM Mode/Muting
Switch® in MONO/OFF.
*« Turning the FM Mode/Muting Switch@ from FM AUTO/ON
to MONO/OFF will improve FM reception and reduce back-
ground noise.
Antennas:
FM:
@ Pull out both the Telescopic Antennas@ and adjust their
length and angle for optimum reception.
@ If you wish to improve reception or to receive very distant
stations, connect a suitable 300-ohm FM antenna to the
FM Antenna Terminals@, as shown in Fig. 6.
MW:
M@ The highly sensitive ferrite core antenna in your set pro-
vides satisfactory MW reception in most areas. For
optimum reception, turn the set in the direction which gives
the best results since the ferrite core antenna is somewhat
directional.
@ When listening in poor reception areas such as inside a
large building or in a fringe area, connect a wire of the
appropriate length to serve as the antenna or an outdoor
antenna .(and an earth wire) to the AM Antenna Ter-
minals@, as in Fig. 7. (An antenna and an earth wires
come with this set.)
SW:
M@ Extend the right-hand Telescopic Antenna@ fully and keep
it vertical.
B® To improve the reception, connect the outdoor antenna and
earth to the AM Antenna Terminlas® (see Fig. 7).
@ With the SW1 band, the built-in ferrite core antenna also
has an effect, and changing the direction of the set may
improve reception, just as with MW.

Stereo Spread System
Since the speakers in this set are placed close together, it is
difficult to get the full effect of stereo separation. To compen-
sate for this problem, the RS-4360DFT is equipped with a
Stereo Spread System. When the Listening Mode Selector @ is
set to STEREO WIDE, a special electronic matrix circuit
increases the stereo separation so that it sounds like two
separate speakers with a full stereo image. (See Fig. 8.)
Note: Ifthe input programs are monaural, set the Listening
Mode Selector@ to MONO. Setting the selector to
STEREO WIDE may distort the played sound.
