System Connections

Please be certain that the receiver is unplugged from the AC outlet before making any connections.

Be sure to connect the white RCA pin cords to the L(left) and the red RCA pin cords to the R(right) jacks when making connections.

Change the position of the FM indoor antenna until you get the best reception of your favorite FM stations. A 75Ω outdoor FM antenna may be used to further improve the reception.

Disconnect the indoor antenna before replacing it with the outdoor one.

Place the AM loop antenna as far as possible from the receiver, TV set, speaker cords and the AC input cord and set it to a direction for the best reception.

If the reception is poor with the AM loop antenna, an AM outdoor antenna can be used in place of the AM loop antenna. Make connections firmly and correctly. If not, poor connections can cause loss of sound, noise or damage to the receiver. If the electricity fails or the AC input cord is left unplugged for about two weeks, the memorized contents will be lost. Should this happen, memorize them again.
