System Connections

When making system connections, please be certain the AC cord is not plugged into an AC outlet.

When making connections between components, please be sure to connect the white RCA plugs to the L (left) and the red RCA plugs to the R (right) jacks respectively.

Change the position of the FM indoor antenna until you get the best possible reception of your favorite FM stations.

A 75 Ohm outdoor FM antenna may be used to further improve the reception. Disconnect the indoor antenna before connecting the outdoor antenna.

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 all connections firmly and correctly. Failure to do so can cause loss of sound, noise or damage to the receiver.

If the electricity fails or the AC cord is left unplugged for about two weeks, all operating parameters in the unit’s memory will be lost. Should this happen, you must enter them again.

The phono input of your receiver is not suitable for the direct connection of a turntable with a Moving Coil (MC) cartridge. If you have a MC cartridge, use a separate head amplifier of step-up transformer between the turntable and the receiver.￿

Not all of the commercially available Fiber Optic cables are suitable for use with this receiver. If you have a question as to the suitability of any cable, please check with your dealer or a qualified service organization.￿

Remove the protective cap before making any OPTICAL connections. Re-insert the protective cap when not using the OPTICAL jacks.
