HOWEVER LIKE MANY TUNERS AND RECEIVERS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE ON THE MARKET IT WILL REPRODUCE THIS AM STEREO SIGNAL ONLY IN AM MONO. WHICH, IN EFFECT, IS OF NO LESSER QUALITY THAN YOUR EXISTING AM MONO TUNER/RECEIVER.
Suggestions for Safety
■ Use a standard electrical AC wall outlet
- Use from an AC power source of high voltage, such as for air conditioners, is very dangerous.
Be extremely careful not to make a connection to the electrical outlet for a large air conditioner or central-heating unit which uses high voltage, because there is the possibility of fire.
- A DC power source cannot be used.
Be sure to check the power source carefully, especially on a ship or other place where DC is used.
■ Connection and removal of the power cord plug
- Wet hands are dangerous.
A dangerous electric shock may result if the plug is touched by wet hands.
- Don't pull the power cord.
Always grasp the plug; never pull the cord itself.
■ Never attempt to repair or reconstruct this unit
A serious electric shock might occur if this unit is repaired, disassembled or reconstructed by unauthorized persons, or if the internal parts are accidentally touched.
For families with children
Never permit children to put anything, especially metal, inside this unit. A serious electric shock or malfunction could occur if articles such as coins, needles, screwdrivers, etc. are inserted through the ventilation holes, etc. of this unit.
■ Turn off after use
If the unit is left for a long time with the power on, this will not only shorten its useful operation life, but may also cause other unexpected trouble.
Before Use
Be sure to disconnect the mains cord before adjusting the voltage selector.
Use a minus (−) screwdriver to set the voltage selector (on the rear panel) to the voltage setting for the area in which the unit will be used.
■ If water is spilled on the unit
Be extremely careful if water is spilled on the unit, because a fire or serious electric shock might occur. Immediately disconnect the power cord plug, and consult with your dealer.
■ Place the unit where it will be well ventilated, and away from direct sunlight

Antenna Connections
The indication AM used here includes both MW and LW for model ST-G90L.
Note: An outdoor antenna should be installed by a competent technician only.
(Necessary in mountainous regions, inside reinforced-concrete buildings, etc.)
■ For better FM reception
If an FM antenna is installed, Install it so that signal strength is maximized (by watching the FM signal-strength display). (Refer to page 7.)
This unit
- Attach to a wall (using tack or tape) facing in the direction of best reception.
- Tack should not contact internal antenna-wire.
- For best reception sound quality, an FM outdoor antenna is recommended.
- Disconnect this antenna if an FM outdoor antenna is installed.
If this antenna is not properly installed, AM broadcasts will not be received. Be sure to connect the AM loop antenna even when an outdoor antenna is used.
(Necessary in mountainous regions, inside reinforced-concrete buildings, etc.) Use 5 \~ 12 m (16 \~ 40 ft.) of vinyl-covered wire horizontally at the window.
- Connect the AM loop antenna to the AM antenna terminals located on the rear panel of the unit.
Installation of the AM loop antenna
- Pay attention to the following points when attaching the antenna.
- Do not attach it horizontally (to do so would impair reception).
- Do not attach it close to metal surfaces (to do so would result in noise).
- Do not attach it close to power cords, speaker wires, etc. (to do so would result in noise).
- Do not attach it close to a tape deck (when the tape deck is being used, chirping or beeping sounds may be received).
-When attaching the antenna to a wall, column or rack
Find the height and direction of the antenna where reception is best and then fix it vertically to the wall, rack, etc.
When attaching the antenna to the unit
This type of installation may cause impaired reception or result in signal noise. If possible, attach the antenna to the rack, a wall, or a column.
Move the antenna toward the right or left to find the point of best reception.

Each time this selector is pressed, the selection changes, in sequence, to "auto", "manual" and "lock".
auto:
At this position, broadcast stations are automatically found when the tuning control is turned to the left or right until the frequency changes.
manual:
At this position, the tuning control can be used to locate the desired station.
lock:
At this position, the broadcast station now being heard is locked in. and other broadcast stations cannot be tuned to, even if turning the tuning control.
7 Scan level selector (scan level)
This button is used for setting or confirming the level of the reception signal during automatic FM tuning. (Refer to page 8.)
8 Preset-tuning buttons (39 channel random preset tuning)
These buttons are used to preset FM and AM broadcast frequencies into the memory of this unit, and are also pressed to select the desired preset frequencies.
Note:
Refer to pages 8\~9 for information concerning preset memory.
9 Band selectors (band selector)
FM:
Press this button to listen to an FM broadcast. Ireq shift:
When the button is pressed slightly longer, the reception frequency increases by 0.025 MHz (25 kHz).
(The final figure of the frequency display changes to "2" or "7".)
In order to return to the original frequency indication, press this button for about 2 seconds again.
AM: (For ST-G90L; MW)
Press this button to listen to an AM broadcast. allocation:
This button is also used to select a frequency step of either 9 kHz or 10 kHz.
When the AM button is pressed for about 4 seconds, the AM frequency step will change to 10 kHz per step.
(This step is set to 9 kHz before shipment.)
Set to the appropriate position for your locality. LW: (ST-G90L only)

In order to return to the original frequency indication, press this button for about 4 seconds again
10 Recording-level check button (rec level)
This button is to be used for adjustment of the recording level when recording an FM broadcast. (Refer to page 11.) Other operations cannot be performed while the recording-level-check indicator is illuminated.
To perform other operations, first be sure that the recording-level-check indicator is OFF.
FM mode selector (FM mode)
If noise is excessive in stereo broadcasts, a switchover to monaural reception can be made.
When there is a change to monaural reception, the illumination of the FM mode indicator changes to the "mono" position.
12 FM RF-band selector (RF band)
This button can be used to switch the RF bandwidth to either the "normal" width or the "super narrow" width by manual operation.
Interference signals are removed if switched to "super narrow".
13 FM RF-band automatic-selector (auto RF)
It sometimes happens, during the reception of FM broadcasts, that a station other than the desired station is received, or interference noise is excessive, even though there is no broadcast station other than the desired station on a nearby frequency.
The reason for this is that interference signals are produced in a frequency band in which there is actually no broadcast station when two or more strong broadcast stations' signals (interference signals) are input to the unit's "front end" (input stage). These interference signals are known as "cross modulation" interference signals, and they cause interference noise to be heard in the signals from the desired broadcast station.
This model is designed to eliminate such cross modulation interference signals by automatically switching the bandwidth of the RF (radio frequency; high frequency) band to the "super narrow" bandwidth.
-set freq only:
By lightly tapping this selector, the presence or not of interference signals within the broadcast signals being received is detected, and there is an automatic switchover to either the "normal" or "super narrow" circuitry as appropriate.
-all preset ch:
If this selector is pressed and held for a slightly longer time, the presence or not of interference signals within the broadcast signals of all FM broadcast stations that have been preset to the unit's memory is detected. There is then an automatic switchover to either the "normal" or "super narrow" circuitry as appropriate, and then an entry is automatically made (to the memory for these same "channels") of the "normal" or "super narrow" reception condition.

■ "Most-recent" memory
The most-recent memory is a system by which the unit "remembers" the FM or AM broadcast station last heard when this unit is switched OFF, and automatically tunes to that station the next time the power is switched ON.
■ "Back-up" memory
This is the function which preserves the preset memory and most-recent memory functions. In the event of a power failure, or if the power cord of the tuner is disconnected from the electric outlet, the back-up memory will preserve the preset memory and most-recent memory functions for as long as approximately one week.
■ If the memory setting is erased
The memory settings will be erased in the following cases.
For example:
1) If the power cord is disconnected from the electric outlet.
2) If an audio timer is used and the timer does not operate the tuner for a week or longer.
3) If a power failure occurs, etc.
If any of the above occurs, the memory will have to be reset. If the power supply is interrupted for a week or longer, set the power switch of the tuner to the "on" position for an hour or more. Then reprogram the memory.
FM automatic RF/automatic IF
In order to improve tone quality during reception of FM broadcasts when the FM band is crowded with many FM broadcast stations, this model includes "normal" circuitry and "super narrow" circuitry both for the RF (radio frequency) stage and for the IF (intermediate frequency) stage. This special circuitry functions to detect interference signals when several conflicting signals are being received, and to automatically select the optimum reception conditions. (There is an automatic switchover to the "super narrow" circuitry when interference signals are present, and to the "normal" circuitry when they are not a problem.)
The "super narrow" circuitry of the RF stage eliminates interference signals caused as the result of two or more strong broadcast station signals. The "super narrow" circuitry of the IF stage eliminates interference signals caused by broadcast station signals on adjacent frequencies.
Recording FM broadcasts
This model is provided with a recording-level check button that is convenient for determining the optimum recording level before beginning the recording. The standard reference signals are rectangular waves, and the setting of the signal level is to an output level of 50% modulation.
Note:
Do not press the "rec level" while a recording is being made, because to do so will interrupt the recording.
1 Press the "rec level".
(The recording-level-check indicator will illuminate, and the check signal will be emitted.)
2 Adjust the recording level by using the recording level control of the tape deck.
- For VU meters and level meters Adjust so that the indication needle is about +2 VU or +2 dB.
• For peak-level meters
Adjust so that the indication is about -2 dB

Before requesting service for this unit, check the chart below for a possible cause of the problem you are experiencing. Some simple checks or a minor adjustment on your part may eliminate the problem and restore proper operation. If you are in doubt about some of the check points, or if the remedies indicated in the chart do not solve the problem, refer to the directory of Authorized service centers (enclosed with this unit) to locate a convenient service center, or consult your Technics dealer for instructions.
| Problem | Probable cause(s) | Suggested remedy |
| While listening to FM broadcasts | ||
| In an external hissing noise is heard when listening to the broadcast in stereo, but not heard when listening nonaturally. | Due to the differences between a monaural and a stereo signal, a higher level of signal strength is required for proper stereo reception. If the signal level is low, a hissing noise may be produced on the stereo channel. | Try reducing the treble sound by using the treble control of the amplifier.Set the FM mode selector to the monaural position. (Note that the broadcast will then be heard as monaural sound.)Try changing the location, height and/or direction of the antenna.If an indoor antenna is being used, change to an outdoor antenna.Try using an antenna with more elements. |
| Noise is excessive in both stereo and monaural broadcasts. | Poor location and/or direction of the antenna.Transmitting station is too far away. | |
| If the PM stereo indicator or the quartic book indicator signals, without completely normal rating. | Poor location and/or direction of the antenna.Transmitting station is too far away. | Try changing the location, height and/or direction of the antenna.If an indoor antenna is being used, change to an outdoor antenna.Try using an antenna with more elements. |
| Number distortion in the band of stereo broadcasts. | Nearby building or mountain.[Multipath distortion is being caused by the mutual interference of broadcast signals received directly from the transmitting station (direct waves) and signals being reflected from nearby buildings or mountains (reflected waves).] | |
| While listening to AM broadcasts | ||
| In unusual "beat" sound is heard. | Unit is being used at the same time as the television set. | Turn off television set, or use this unit farther away from it. |
| A low-pitched "hum" sound is heard when the broadcast is tuned. | The AM loop antenna connection wires are too close to the power cord. | Place the antenna connection wires and the power cord farther apart. |
| The power supply frequency from the power cord is modulated and heard from the speakers. | Install a special outdoor antenna. | |
| A strange missing noise is produced continuously or intermittently. | Caused by the "discharge phenomenon" and the "oscillation phenomenon" of electric appliances (such as fluorescent lights, TV, small series-type motors, rectification equipment, etc.). | Try placing this unit farther away from such equipment.Install noise-prevention equipment on this unit or on the electric appliance. |
