s Using the "SCAN/TUNE" button to scan radio stations Pressing the "SCAN/TUNE" button once enters the scan mode (display will indicate "SCN"). Pushing the top (a) half of the "SEEK" button will begin the scan mode up the frequency band, stopping on each listenable station for approximately five seconds. Pushing the bottom (b) half of the "SEEK" button will begin the scan mode down the frequency band, again stopping on each listenable station for approximately five seconds. To stop the scan mode on the presently sampled station, press the "SCAN/TUNE" button again. s Setting the Station Memory Preset buttons Your radio is equipped with 6 station memory buttons. These buttons can be used to select up to 6 preset AM stations and 12 FM stations (6 in FM1 and 6 in FM2). 1. Select a band, then select a frequency. 2. Press one of the memory preset buttons and hold the button until the sound returns. That station is now held in memory on that button. 3. Follow the two steps above for each station memory preset button you want to set. NOTE: If the vehicle's battery is disconnected, the clock and station memory preset buttons will need to be reset. s Using the Automatic Memory Store feature With Auto Memory Store, you can continually set strong stations into your memory buttons without losing your existing memory presets, which is especially handy while traveling. Your radio will automatically set your memory buttons to the strong local stations so you don't have to continually manually tune to existing stations. 26
