Connecting the T-shaped FM antenna:

The T-shaped FM antenna is for indoor use only. Extend the antenna and move it in various directions until the clearest signal is received. Fix it with push pins or similar implements in the position that will cause the least amount of distortion.

If the reception is not very clear with the attached T-shaped FM antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.
