software to the latest version, contact your dealer who will arrange this for a charge).
Step 1 - Power down the MCU.
Step 2 - Hold down the ‘Store’ and ‘Mode’ buttons the front of the MCU.
Step 3 - Power up the MCU whilst still pressing buttons.
Step 4 - The tuner LCD display will stay blank.
Step 5 - Release the buttons and the tuner LCD will return to normal.
Step 6 - The presets will now be erased, start storing new presets from preset 1.
Note - The tuner only skips through presets that have been set. If only four presets are set the tuner will skip
1-2-3-4-1-2-3-4 and so on. If no presets are set or only one is set the tuner will not skip at all.
