Connecting the included antennas

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 posi- tion 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.

Connecting the AM loop antenna:

The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the direction and position where you receive the clearest sound. Put it as far away as possible from the unit, TVs, speaker cables, and power cords.

When reception is not satisfactory with the attached AM loop antenna alone, connection of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

Connecting an FM outdoor antenna

Please make sure that you follow the considerations below regard- ing the location.

Keep the antenna away from noise sources (neon signs, busy roads, etc.).

It is dangerous to put the antenna close to power lines. Keep it well away from power lines, transformers, etc.

•To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock, grounding is necessary. Follow item 19 of the “Important Safeguards” on page 2 when you install the outdoor antenna.
