Antenna preparation

Unpack the AM antenna and snap it’s cylindrical end onto the base/mounting plate. Stretch out the twisted cord and Insert the small rectangular plug at the end into the socket located at the bottom center on the back of the radio. Note, this plug is keyed and only fits one way. Orient the AM antenna for best reception of your favorite AM station.

Unroll the FM wire antenna and stretch it out. This antenna is permanently attached to the back of the radio. Position this antenna for best reception of your favorite FM station.

Select a location for your radio

Since the radio generates heat during operation it is necessary to provide open space around it for proper cooling. Failure to do so can significantly reduce the service life.

Do not place the radio near a heater or in direct sunlight. In addition, the radio should not be placed atop electronic devices that generate heat.

In many buildings the best radio reception will be had when the antennas are near a window.

For proper remote control operation there must be an unobstructed path between the remote and the radio face.

The KC-80 includes an auxiliary input allowing sound from computers, TV sets, MP3 players, portable tape players, or other device with a headphone output to play through the KC-80. If this feature will be used, keep in mind the length of the interconnect cable needed when selecting the location.

Connecting power

Attach the DC power adapter to the DC-In jack on the back of the radio. Plug the adapter into an always-on (un-switched) AC outlet. Turn on the radio and verify operation. Use only the supplied adapter.
