RADIO TO EUROPE: How I change the tuner step on a SC-816 ? V70-XC70

Good evening,
I am shipping my Volvo to Europe. It is equipped with an SC-816 that is sounding very well. One problem: it has the US tuner step
on FM: 88,1 88,3 88,5 -----> 107,7 107,9 (200KHz step)
on AM: 600 610 620 -----> 1540 1550 1560 (10KHz step)

but in Europe the frequencies are more "dense" and these are the correct steps:
on FM: 88,1 88,2 88,3 -----> 107,8 107,9 (100KHz step)
on AM: 567 576 585 -----> 1530 1539 1548 (9KHz step)

Does anybody know if inside the unit there is some sort of jumper to change the tuner step?

Sincerely, David


.

    I think there is... Hmmmm. Did you check the back of the owner's manual? Half of the manual is for the radio and allows the clock to be set, etc. Alpine wouldn't make 2 different radios for the world, not knowing where it would be shipped to.
