Cambridge SoundWorks 730 user manual Getting Started

GETTING STARTED

Remove the SoundWorks Radio (See A) from its pro- tective polybag and place it in your preferred location. The Radio’s Tone alarm and Subwoofer outputs will be reduced if the Radio is placed on a compliant, soft surface.

Connect the AM antenna (See B): To prepare the antenna (1), fold the base (2) and snap it into place

(3). Position the AM antenna (4) in any out-of-the way position, preferably at least 8 inches apart from the Radio. Insert the AM Antenna’s miniplug into the Radio’s rear panel minijack marked AM ANTENNA (5).

Rotate the AM antenna to achieve the best signal for individual AM stations.

Connect the power cord by inserting the SoundWorks Radio’s AC plug into a convenient outlet.

The AC cord is also the Radio’s primary FM antenna. It will function better if at least 50% or more of it’s length follows a straight line (See C). Check to make sure the FM antenna switch on the rear panel of the Radio enclosure is in the “INTERNAL” position (factory default).

If desired, the external FM antenna can be connected and used instead of the internal antenna (See D). Connect the external antenna to the “F”-type con- necter of the rear panel. Set the FM antenna switch to EXT (external) .
