Remote Control Unit, Connecting Antennas

Remote Control Unit

The receiver and some other TEAC components which have mark on the front panel can be operated by the provided “UR” remote control unit.

When operating the remote control unit, point it towards the REMOTE SENSOR on the front panel of the receiver (or other TEAC component).

<Even if the remote control unit is operated within the effective range, remote control operation may be impossible if there are any obstacles between the unit and the remote control.

<If the remote control unit is operated near other appliances which generate infrared rays, or if other remote control devices using infrared rays are used near the unit, it may operate incorrectly. Conversely, the other appliances may operate incorrectly.

Battery Installation

1.Remove the battery compartment cover.

2.Insert two “AA” (R6 or SUM-3) dry batteries. Make sure that the batteries are inserted with their positive “+” and negative “_” poles positioned correctly.

3.Close the cover.

Battery Replacement

If the distance required between the remote control unit and main unit decreases, the batteries are exhausted. In this case replace the batteries with new ones.

Precautions concerning batteries

<Be sure to insert the batteries with correct positive “+” and negative “_” polarities.

<Use batteries of the same type. Never use different types of batteries together.

<Rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries can be used. Refer to the precautions on their labels.

<When the remote control unit is not to be used for a long time (more than a month), remove the batteries from the remote control unit to prevent them from leaking. If they leak, wipe away the liquid inside the battery compartment and replace the batteries with new ones.

<Do not heat or disassemble batteries and never dispose of old batteries by throwing them in a fire.

Connecting Antennas

FM Indoor Antenna

Connect the lead-type FM antenna to the FM 75Ω socket, extend the lead and tune the tuner to your favorite station (see page 13). Adjust the antenna in a suitable location like a window frame or wall until the reception is best and then affix the antenna in that position using thumb tacks, push pins or any other suitable means.

FM Outdoor Antenna

In an area where FM signals are weak, it will be necessary to use an outdoor FM antenna. Generally, a 3-element antenna will be sufficient; if you live in an area where the FM signals are particularly weak, it may be necessary to use one with 5 or more elements.

<Disconnect the FM indoor antenna when using an outdoor antenna.
