FM Radio
FM broadcasts are unclear.
 The received station is not fully tuned in.

Reception is weak and sound quality is poor.
 The radio signal is weak.
 Listen to the FM broadcast near a window since the signal may be weak inside
buildings or in vehicles.
 The headphone cord is not fully extended.
 The headphone cord functions as an antenna. Extend the headphone cord as far
as possible.
 Setting the receiver to monaural may reduce noise.
 Set the [Mono/Auto] option to [Mono] (  p. 92).
FM broadcasts are affected by interference.
 A device emitting radio signals, such as a mobile phone, is being used near the
player.
 When using devices such as mobile phones, keep them away from the player.
FM broadcasts cannot be heard.
 The headphones are not connected.
