NUMERIC Buttons:

Station Presets

The RT-02 can store up to 30 station presets

for recall at any time using the NUMERIC

keypad. These station presets can be used for

any combination of AM stations and FM sta-

tions.

The RT-02 is delivered from the factory with

a set of generic station presets that may or may

not match any available stations in your area.

To memorize a new station preset:

1. Tune to the desired station, AM or FM.

2. Press the MEMORY button on the front

panel. A MEMORY indicator will flash in

the front panel display.

3. While the MEMORY indicator is flashing,

press the number of the preset where you

wish to store the station frequency. For

example, to memorize the station as pre-

set 3, press the 3 button. To memorize preset

15, press the 1 button followed by the 5

button.

4. A previously stored frequency is erased

from memory when a new frequency is

memorized for the same preset number.

To tune to a previously memorized

station preset, press the preset num-

ber using the NUMERIC buttons. For

example, to tune to preset 3, press the 3 but-

ton. To tune to preset 30, press the 3 button

and then press the 0 button within 5 seconds.

NOTE: The NUMERIC buttons can also be

used for FREQUENCY DIRECT tuning.

FREQUENCY DIRECT Button:

Direct Access Tuning

Remote Only

If you know the exact frequency of the desired

station, you may tune it directly using the

FREQUENCY DIRECT button (remote only) and

the NUMERIC buttons.

1. Press the FREQUENCY DIRECT button to

change the NUMERIC buttons from station

preset to direct access mode. The station

frequency in the front panel display will

change to a series of bars, representing

the digits of a station frequency, with the

first bar blinking.

2. Enter the first digit of the station frequency

using the NUMERIC buttons. The digit will

appear in the frequency display and the

next bar will flash. Enter the remaining digits

of the frequency. When all of the digits have

been entered, the tuner will automatically

tune to the displayed station frequency.

NOTE: On the USA version only, pressing 1

in the FM mode will enter 10 as the digit in

the frequency display. On the European ver-

sion, it is necessary to press 1 and then 0 to

enter 10. For US FM stations, press only one

digit following the decimal point as shown in

the first example following. For European FM

stations, press two digits after the decimal

point as shown in the second example.

EXAMPLES:

(USA FM) 87.50MHz Press 8>7>5

(Europe FM) 87.50MHz Press 8>7>5>0

(USA AM) 1610kHz Press 1>6>1

(Europe AM) 1611kHz Press 1>6>1>1

If no frequency is entered within 5 seconds,

the tuner will cancel FREQUENCY DIRECT

tuning mode and revert to the last previously

tuned station.

Auto Tuning Button

The AUTO TUNING button toggles between

the frequency search tuning feature and

manual frequency tuning. When using the

TUNING controls on the front panel or remote

in AUTO TUNING mode, the tuner will be-

gin automatically scanning up or down through

the frequencies until the next receivable broad-

cast signal is detected. If this is not the desired

station, use the TUNING controls again to find

the next station. Weak stations will be skipped

during auto tuning. If no receivable signal is

detected, the tuner will revert to the previously

tuned station.

To toggle between FREQUENCY TUNING

mode and AUTO TUNING mode, press the

AUTO TUNING button. An AUTO indicator

will appear in the display.

NOTE: AUTO TUNING mode is disengaged

when the TUNE/PRESET button is set to PRE-

SET tuning mode. See the following section.

TUNE/PRESET Button

The TUNE/PRESET button toggles between

FREQUENCY TUNING mode (the TUNING

controls advance to the next station frequency)

and PRESET TUNING mode (the TUNING

controls advance to the next memorized sta-

tion preset). To toggle between the two modes,

press the TUNE/PRESET button. A PRESET

indicator in the front panel DISPLAY will light

when the PRESET mode is active.

NOTE: AUTO TUNING mode is disengaged

when the TUNE/PRESET button is set to PRE-

SET tuning mode.

PRESET SCAN Button

This button activates a preset scanning fea-

ture. When you press the button, the tuner will

automatically scan through all memorized

station presets, playing each for five seconds

before moving to the next. To stop the station

scanning on the desired station preset, press

the button again.

NOTE: If a PRESET station is currently tuned

when the PRESET SCAN button is pressed,

scanning will start with the next higher pre-

set number and continue through all preset

stations, stopping on the initial preset. If a

PRESET station is not currently tuned when

the button is pressed, scanning will start from

PRESET 1 and continue to PRESET 30.

FM MONO Button

Remote Only

The FM MONO button changes the FM mode

from stereo reception to mono reception. In

stereo mode, a stereo signal will be heard if

the station is broadcasting a stereo signal and

there is sufficient signal strength. A stereo

indicator will light in the front panel display.

In mono mode, a mono signal will be heard

even if the station is broadcasting a stereo

signal.

NOTE: Switching to mono mode can be a

useful way to improve the reception of weak

or distant FM signals. Less signal strength is

required for clean mono reception than for

stereo reception.
