manual abstract
1 Press BAND repeatedly to select FM or AM (MW and LW). 2 Press TUNE MODE so that only “TUNING” appears in the display (ST-SE570 only). “AUTO” should not appear in the display. For ST-SE370, press TUNE MODE until nothing appears in the display. 3 Turn TUNING/SELECT until you tune in the station you want. Turn the control to the right for a higher frequency; turn it to the left for a lower frequency. The signal meter indicates the strength of the broadcast signal. Note When you reach the highest or lowest frequency of any band, tuning stops. Tips for better FM reception This tuner has various functions designed for better reception. First, try to receive stations with the standard settings. If the reception is not good, try altering the reception quality to obtain a clear signal. The tuner stores the following adjustments, together with the frequency when you make a station preset. Setting the FM mode Press FM MODE a few times to select the reception mode, select either Auto stereo (no indication) or “MONO”. • Auto stereo mode receives stereo broadcasts with strong signals. Press FM MODE a few times so that “MONO” disappears. • “MONO” receives stations with weak signals. Stations will be received in monaural but with even less noise. Checking the signal strength You can use the digital signal meter to check the signal strength of FM frequencies. The display range is from 16 to 70 dB (1 .V of radio frequency voltage = 0 dB). To obtain a signal to noise ratio sufficient for receiving a stereo broadcast, we recommend a reading greater than 50 dB. (You can also change the FM MODE while using the signal meter to determine the best reception.) 1 Tune in an FM station. 2 Press DISPLAY repeatedly to display the digital signal meter. 3 Rotate the FM antenna to obtain the strongest signal. Naming the preset stations You can assign a name up to 5 characters long to each preset station except FM RDS stations. When the station is tuned in, the station name will appear instead of the frequency. 1 Press CHARACTER. The cursor flashes in the display. 2 Turn TUNING/SELECT to select a character. 3 When the character you want appears, press CHARACTER to move the cursor into position for the next character. If you make a mistake Press CHARACTER repeatedly until the character you want to change flashes (every time you press CHARACTER, the next character flashes). Then turn TUNING/ SELECT to select a new character. 4 Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the station name you want appears in the display. 5 Press MEMORY. “MEMORY” appears along with the lowest vacant code to indicate that the tuner is ready to store the station. 6 Press SHIFT and one of the preset buttons to specify the preset where you want to store the station name. Note The display returns to normal display mode if you stop assigning names for more than 8 seconds. If this happens, start again from the beginning. Tip To see the frequency of the displayed station name, press DISPLAY repeatedly. Organizing the preset stations This tuner makes it easy to arrange preset stations in the order you prefer. You can arrange all the preset stations automatically, according to alphabetical order, signal strength, country code, or tuner band, or you can use the Move and Erase functions to move and erase specific preset stations. 1 Press MENU. 2 Turn TUNING/SELECT until “Edit” appears in the display and press ENTER. If no stations have been stored as presets, “No Preset” appears in the display. 3 Turn TUNING/SELECT to select one of the following sorting methods: Select To Move Change the location of a specific preset (see page 12). Erase Erase a specific preset (see page 12). Alphabet Sort preset stations in alphabetical order according to their preset names. Stations without preset names are arranged by frequency, from low to high. Strength Sort preset stations in order of their signal strength (FM stations only). AM (MW and LW) stations are arranged by frequency. Country* Sort FM RDS stations with PI** information alphabetically by country. Other stations are arranged by frequency. Band Sort preset stations in order of their frequency band (FM - AM (MW LW)). * European model only. ** Programme Identification (See page 13). 4 Press ENTER. The tuner sorts the stations, then returns to normal tuning mode and receives preset station A1. Note Some countries use the same country code, and the stations from these counties may be arranged together. continued Advanced Tuner Organizing the preset stations (continued) Moving preset station You can also move a specific preset station. 1 Follow steps 1 through 3 in “Organizing the preset stations” and select “Move” from the Edit menu, then press ENTER. 2 Turn TUNING/SELECT so that the preset code you want to move appears in the display and press ENTER. 3 Turn TUNING/SELECT to select the new location for the preset code and press ENTER. The preset station you selected is moved to the new location and the other preset stations in that group (“A” for e...
