Using the FM radio
FM Radio Mode
In FM mode, you will see ‘FM’ to the far right of line 1 of the display
together with a radio frequency eg: 89.60MHz.
When your radio is in FM mode it can receive Radio Data System or
‘RDS’ information if this is being transmitted by the broadcaster. RDS
information includes the station name, detail about the programme and
the current time.
If you were listening to an FM station when you switched the radio off
then this station will be automatically selected when you switch the radio
back on.
FM stereo ‘Auto’ mode
You can change the FM stereo mode of your radio to always play stations
in mono, or to switch automatically from stereo to mono when the signal
quality is low.
1. In FM mode, briefly press the ‘Enter’ button to switch between ‘Auto’
(Stereo) and ‘Mono’ modes.
Tuning to an FM station
1. If you are not in FM mode, touch the ‘Mode’ button to go
to FM mode.
2. Press the or button to search for stations. A long press of the
or button initiates an auto search for the next station, where it
will stop and show the frequency of RDS information, if it is available.
A short press allows you to fine tune each station.
Note: If reception is still poor, adjust the position of the aerial or try
moving the radio to another location.
Storing an FM station preset
Your radio can store up to 10 FM stations in its preset memories for
instant access to your favourite stations.
Note: When you store FM radio station presets, these do not overwrite
your DAB
+
station presets.
