RADIO OPERATION

APS (Automatic Programing System)

The set features an APS function,Its main advantage is the quick, automatic programming of the station buttons for FM, LW and MW.

This is particularly advantage for the initial programming and when travilling as all the transmitters with good reception quality

Turn on the radio, select desired radio band by pressing FW/MW/LW band button .Then press APS button for more than 2 seconds, display will show APS and starts with a signal tone. The frequency and the memory slots 1-9 are then assigned with stations with good receiving quality. After APS is completed, it will stop at the most strongest station signal being found.

If more than 9 statons are received, the transmitters with the strongest signals are the ones that are selected. If in the LW band for example fewer than 9 stations are received, the memory slots will appear for the stations numbers being memorized.

Tuning the station

The tuning + - buttons are used to tune in stations. For an automatic station search, press the + ( ) or -( ) button until the frequency display starts advancing on its own. Then release the button. The tuning function will stop automatically when a powerful signal from a station is found. The search can be broken off by pressing the button for the opposite direction.

Manual station tuning

If the transmission frequency of a desired station is known, manual tuning is advisable.

Press the tuning + - buttons intermittently until the desired frequency is reached.

The tuning increments are :

FM :50 kHz MW: 9 kHz LW : 1 kHz

Storing stations (Memory)

For each of the 3 wave bands, 9 transmitting stations can be stored via MEMO button and PRESET + - button . A total 27 presets can be used.

Tune in the desired station as described above, then press MEMO button for memory, display will show SAVE M1 to suggest you to store the station on PRESET 1 (you may select your PRESET No. by using PRESET + button ) then press MEMO button again, display memory slots will show preset No. with block indicating the station being stored.

If all the 9 presets being stored already, display will show FULL, in this case if you still requite to store the station, press MEMO button again, display will show SAVE-->M9(again you may select your PRESET no. by using PRESET + - button), then press MEMO button again, the previous PRESET station will be deleted and replace with the new station.

PRESET (Memory) exchange

You may exchange the PRESET for your own editing purpose.

First, recall the station, and press MEMO button, then PRESET + button to the required new preset, then press MEMO button again. The preset stations will be then exchanged.

For example, if you like to exchange PRESET 3 and PRESET 6, recall PRESET 3, press MEMO and PRESET + - to the desired 6 (Display will show SAVE-->M6) then press MEMO button again. Then PRESET 3 becomes PRESET 6 and PRESET 6 becomes PRESET 3.

If you like to exchange PRESET 3 to blank preset position 9, recall PRESET 3, press MEMO and PRESET + - to the 9 (Display will show SAVE-->M9)then press MEMO button again. Then PRESET 3 become PRESET 9 and PRESET 3 become blank.

If receiving the station without RDS signal, display will only show frequency.

If receiving FM station with RDS CT (clock time) and CLOCK AUTO ADJUST switch set to AUTO position, the radio will adjust the time automatically according to the RDS station CT signal.(If the switch set to off position, can not adjust the time automatically).

If you did not turn on the FM RDS station for more than 10 days, RDS symbol will disappear, and you have to turn on the radio, tuning the RDs station with CT signal again for time adjustment.

RESET Switch

The RESET switch inside the battery compartment serves to clean all the memory input or while Micon IC power down and display shows unusual sign.

It should be therefore only be used when it is necessary to reset completely the time and station programming, especially to RESET the radio to its normal codition while Micon IC prwer down, display shows unusual sign.
