Pioneer VSX-41 User Manual

The following steps show you how to tune in to
FM and AM radio broadcasts using the
automatic (search) and manual (step) tuning
functions. If you already know the frequency of
the station you want, see Tuning directly to a
station below. Once you are tuned to a station
you can memorize the frequency for recall
later—see Saving station presets on the next
page for more on how to do this.

Each press switches the band between FM and
AM.

There are three ways to do this:

To search for stations in the currently

selected band, press and hold 

for about a second. The receiver will start
searching for the next station, stopping
when it has found one. Repeat to search
for other stations.

To change the frequency one step at a

time, press 

TUNE +/–.

Press and hold 

TUNE +/– for high

speed tuning. Release the button at the
frequency you want.

If the 

TUNED or STEREO indicators don't light

when tuning to an FM station because the
signal is weak, press the 

MPX(/RETURN)

button to switch the receiver into mono
reception mode. This should improve the sound
quality and allow you to enjoy the broadcast.

Sometimes, you'll already know the frequency of
the station you want to listen to. In this case,
you can simply enter the frequency directly
using the number buttons on the remote
control.
