Setting the AM/FM interval
"
The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has established
that member countries should maintain either a 10 kHz or 9 kHz
interval between broadcasting frequencies of AM stations and 100
kHz or 50 kHz for FM stations. The illustration shows the 50/9 kHz
zones (regions 1 and 3), and the 100/10 kHz zone (region 2).
This product is not equipped with a span selector. However, it will be
adjusted to a 9 kHz AM (50 kHz FM) interval when shipped from the
factory.
Before using the unit, be sure to set it to the AM/FM tuning interval
(span) used in your area.
To check the tuning span currently selected:
1 Press the ON/STAND-BY button to turn the power on.
2 Press the FUNCTION button until "AM" appears on the display.
!
If "AM 531 kHz" is displayed, it means that AM stations have
been adjusted for a 9 kHz span and FM stations for 50 kHz
span. If "AM 530 kHz" is displayed, AM stations have been adjusted for a 10 kHz span and FM stations for 100 kHz span.
T o change from a 9 kHz AM (50 kHz FM) interval to a 10 kHz AM
(100 kHz FM) interval:
1 Press the ON/STAND-BY button to enter the stand-by mode.
2 Hold down the MEMORY/SET button and the FUNCTION button
for at least 4 seconds. Release the buttons when "AM SP 10 kHz"
and "FM SP 100 kHz" are displayed alternately.
!
The clock display will reappear.
To return to a 9 kHz AM (50 kHz FM) interval:
1 Press the ON/STAND-BY button to enter the stand-by mode.
2 Hold down the MEMORY/SET button and the FUNCTION button
for at least 4 seconds. Release the buttons when "AM SP 9 kHz"
and "FM SP 50 kHz" are displayed alternately.
!
The clock display will reappear.
Caution:
!
When the unit is left for a few hours after the span has been
switched and the AC power lead disconnected, the AM span will
be automatically returned to 9 kHz (F M span to 50 kHz). If this
happens, set the span again.
!
When the span is switched, all the memorised stations will be
cancelled.

Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracking
can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the disc surface. Follow
the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from your CD collection and player.
!
Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-label
side from which signals are read. Do not mark this surface.
!
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and excessive
moisture.
!
Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt , or water on
the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD is dirty or does
not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out
from the centre, along the radius.
