Hello fellow beolovers!

I have just gotten into Bang & Olufsen equipment and I am as stumped as a tree... I can pretty much navigate my way through all the functions of the MCP6500, bass, treble, loudness etc... and even managed to set the time and day.

Now when it comes to tuning this thing, I am DEAD LOST. I have no idea what I am doing... I guess its because I am used to pressing left or right or rotating a knob left or right to tune my station... and it does so... The MCP6500 does not work that way, at least right off the bat!

If anyone here can provide me with a manual for the remote, or at least tell me exactly how I would go about tuning on this beast, I would greatly appreciate it!!

 

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

Press Tune, press frequency, if you know the freq. give it in with the number keys, if not, press search up or down, will stop at station and indicate Stereo or not, and Locked if the station is strong enough. press search again for other station.

If you want to preset a found station. Press, Setup, Preset, Store, give in number between 1-20, press Store.

do the same for all stations.

If you want to clear a station press Preset, Clear, number, Clear

There is a manual on site for Silver members, and most manuals for all Beo items.
