MANUAL TUNING
Use manual tuning when you do not know the frequency of the sta¬
tion you want to tune in, or when you want to tune in a station more
precisely after scan tuning.
The numbers in the illustration refer to the sequence of operations.
How to use the MANUAL TUNE MODE selector
The manual tuning interval of AM frequency can be set with the
MANUAL TUNE MODE selector, to 0.1 kHz (at SLOW position) or
1 kHz (at FAST position).
After tuning in a station with the selector set to FAST, tune it in
more precisely, setting the selector to SLOW. Once the frequency
of any band is precisely tuned, set the selector to LOCK. The fre¬
quency no longer changes even if the MANUAL TUNING knob is ac¬
cidentally turned.
