Photo files Category Extension JPEG .jpg .jpeg .jpe .jif .jfif Format Resolution Meeting the following conditions: ! Baseline JPEG format (including files recorded in Exif/DCF format) ! Y:Cb:Cr - 4:4:4, 4:2:2 or 4:2:0 30 to 8184 pixels vertical, 40 to 8184 pixels horizontal Listening to the radio The following steps show you how to tune in to FM and AM radio broadcasts using the automatic (search) and manual (step) tuning functions. If you already know the frequency of the station you want, see Tuning directly to a station below. Once you are tuned to a station you can memorize the frequency for recall later-see Saving station presets on page 41 for more on how to do this. 1 SC-LX85 only: Set the remote control operation selector switch to SOURCE. 2 Press TUNER to select the tuner. 3 Use BAND to change the band (FM or AM), if necessary. 4 Tune to a station. There are three ways to do this: ! Automatic tuning - To search for stations in the currently selected band, press and hold TUNE i/j for about a second. The receiver will start searching for the next station, stopping when it has found one. Repeat to search for other stations. ! Manual tuning - To change the frequency one step at a time, press TUNE i/j. ! High speed tuning - Press and hold TUNE i/j for high speed tuning. Release the button at the frequency you want. Improving FM sound If the TUNED or STEREO indicator doesn't light when tuning to an FM station because the signal is weak, press MPX to switch the receiver into mono reception mode. This should improve the sound quality and allow you to enjoy the broadcast. Using the noise cut mode The two noise cut modes can be used when receiving AM broadcasts. Press MPX to select the noise cut mode (1 to 2). Using Neural Surround This feature uses Neural SurroundTM technologies to achieve optimal surround sound from FM radio. ! While listening to FM radio, press AUTO/ALC/DIRECT for Neural Surround. ! The Neural Surround mode can be selected also with STANDARD. Tuning directly to a station 1 SC-LX85 only: Set the remote control operation selector switch to SOURCE. 2 Press TUNER to select the tuner. 3 Use BAND to change the band (FM or AM), if necessary. 4 Press D.ACCESS (Direct Access). 5 Use the number buttons to enter the frequency of the radio station. For example, to tune to 106.00 (FM), press 1, 0, 6, 0, 0. If you make a mistake halfway through, press D.ACCESS twice to cancel the frequency and start over. Saving station presets If you often listen to a particular radio station, it's convenient to have the receiver store the frequency for easy recall whenever you want to listen to that station. This saves the effort of manually tuning in each time. This receiver can memorize up to 63 stations, stored in seven banks, or classes (A to G) of 9 stations each. En 41
