Trouble Shooting: Radio Will Not Power On:

TUNING THE RADIO
Once your radio has been powered up, then select your desired band by quickly pressing the
[FM], [MW], SW [ ] or [ ] button. When listening to FM or SW stations, fully
extend the telescopic antenna for a better reception.
You can turn to your favorite station with any of the below tuning methods:
Method 1: ETM (Easy Tuning Mode)
The ETM function allows you to tune into stations easily and temporally store them into the
ETM storage; 100 stations for FM/MW (MW=AM Broadcast Band) & 250 stations for SW.
Note: Scanned stations will not be stored in the regular 450 memories, but will remain in the
ETM temporary storage until next ETM scanning within each band.
HOW TO USE ETM
1. Turn on the radio, and select your desired band by
pressing the FM, MW or SW [ ] or [ ] button.
2. Quickly press the [ETM] button and [ETM] shows on
the display to enter Easy Tuning Mode.
3. Press and hold the [ETM] button until the display
starts scroll automatically scanning the stations within
present band.
4. When the frequency display stops scrolling, turn the
[TUNING] knob to listen to those those scanned stations.
5. Quickly press either the [VF/VM] button with memory page shows in the upper right corner
and the disappearance of ETM on the display to exit ETM mode.
Note: FM stations: When you are in a different city or country, you should perform the ETM
function again. This will not delete any of the stations already within the memory.
MW station: It is recommended to perform the ETM function both during daytime, as well as
night time, because propagation is different. (It is usually better at night.)
SW station: It is also recommended to perform the ETM function in the morning, afternoon as
well as night time, because propagation on short wave bands variable are and there are
usually more stations that can be heard broadcasting in the late afternoon/evening.
