SCAN Types 1-2 and 1-3 Radio You can either scan all the frequencies on a band or scan only the preset stations for that band. To scan the preset stations: Quickly push and release "SCAN". If you hear a beep, you held the button too long, and the radio will scan all the frequencies. The radio will tune in the next preset station up the band, stay there for a few seconds, and then move to the next preset station. To select a station, push "SCAN" a second time. To scan all the frequencies: Push "SCAN" until you hear a beep. The radio will find the next station up the station band, stay there for a few seconds, and then scan again. To select a station, push "SCAN" a second time. Cassette Player The cassette player scan feature is similar to the radio scan feature and uses the same button. Push "SCAN". "SCAN" will appear on the display. The player will fast forward to the next cassette track, play it for 12 seconds, and then scan again. To select a track, push "SCAN" a second time. If the player reaches the end of one side of a cassette tape, it will continue scanning on the other side. SKIP Type 1-3 only The skip feature allows you to fast forward past long stretches of blank tape. This is especially useful at the end of cassettes. Push "SKIP". SKIP" will appear on the display. The cassette player will keep track of how much blank space it plays. Any time it has played about 10 seconds of blank tape, it will automatically fast forward to the next track and begin to play. Push the button a second time to turn off the skip feature. ST (Stereo reception) display Your radio automatically changes to stereo reception when a stereo broadcast is received. "ST" appears on the display. If the signal becomes weak, the radio reduces the amount of channel separation to prevent the weak signal from creating noise. If the signal becomes extremely weak, the radio switches from stereo to mono reception. TAPE Push "TAPE" to switch from radio operation to cassette operation. If the audio system is off, you can turn on the cassette player by pushing "TAPE". In both cases, a cassette must already be loaded in the player. TREB (Treble) This knob lets you adjust the treble level. Push "BASS/TREB" so that it pops out of its retracted position. Pull out the knob. Turn the knob to adjust the treble. Push the knob back into its retracted position. 80
