TUNER SECTION TUNER AERIALS • For FM, extend the telescopic aerial. To improve FM-reception, incline and turn the aerial. Reduce its length if the FM-signal is too strong (very close to a transmitter). • For MW and LW, the set is provided with a built-in aerial, so the telescopic aerial is not needed. Direct the aerial by turning the whole set. STEREO/MONO (FM only) • When an FM stereo signal is too weak or noisy for stereo listening, set the switch [33] to the MONO position to reduce the noise.
