When preset numbers are not displayed, the system assigns frequencies starting with preset station 1. Even after the system has assigned frequencies to all the preset station numbers, the system continues tuning. If stronger signals are found, the system replaces the current preset stations with the stronger frequencies. Finally, the system sorts the stations in ascending order by frequency.

Precautions and Maintenance
On cleaning the front panel connector If the front panel connectors are dirty, the system may not function properly. Use a cotton swab slightly moistened with mild detergent solution to clean the connectors.
Connector on the control unit
Handling CDs A scratch, dust, and warp on a disc may result in a malfunction such as sound drop-out. Follow the precautions below to keep the disc clean for maximum listening pleasure. Handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the surface. Do not stick paper or tape onto the disc. Should you encounter a CD with a sticker on, remove it and wipe off any residual adhesive before listening to it. Do not scratch discs. Do not expose the disc to high heat, such as direct sunlight, or high humidity. Before playing the disc, clean it with cleaning cloth (not supplied). Wipe the disc from the center towards the edge. Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray intended for analog discs. About the LCD display on the display section When the temperature is extremely high or low, the display may become dim and hard to see. This is due to the characteristics of the LCD and is not a malfunction. The display will return to normal when the temperature becomes normal.

Wireless Remote

Installing batteries in the wireless remote Insert two size-AA (R6) batteries with the correct polarity.
Notes on battery use To avoid damage from battery leakage and corrosion: Make sure the polarity of the batteries match the + and markings in the battery compartment. Do not use an old battery with a new one, or different types of batteries together. Remove the batteries when the system will not be used for a long period of time. Do not charge the batteries. If any battery leakage occurs, replace both batteries after cleaning the battery compartment. Notes on the wireless remote To prevent deformation due to heat, do not install the remote in a place subject to direct sunlight. Direct sunlight may affect the systems ability to receive infrared signals from the remote. If this happens, move the remote closer to the remote control sensor of the system. When parking your car, put the remote somewhere, such as the glove compartment, that is away from direct sunlight to prevent deformation due to heat.

On batteries

Battery life

When the batteries become weak, you will not be able to operate the system with the wireless remote. Battery life is about six months (or shorter, depending on the way the remote is used). If the remote becomes inoperative, replace the batteries, then verify that it can operate the system. If the red indicator no longer flashes when you press an operation button on the remote, it means the batteries are weak.
