of the band you are in (AM, FM1 or FM2) into the memory

the frequencies, stopping momentarily on the stations being

ªAUTOº mode and this display will show ªAUTOº each
time a preset selected by ªAUTO SETº is activated.

With Auto Memory Store, you can continually set strong
stations into your memory buttons without losing your
existing memory presets, which is especially helpful while
traveling. Your radio will automatically set your memory
buttons to the strong local stations so you don't have to
continually manually tune to existing stations.
