The AM loop antenna should be placed away from this unit.

The AM loop antenna should always be connected, even if an outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.

A properly installed outdoor antenna provides clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may improve the quality. Consult the nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center about the outdoor antennas.

FREQUENCY STEP switch (China and General models only)

Because the inter-station frequency spacing differs in different areas, set the FREQUENCY STEP switch (located on the rear panel) according to the frequency spacing in your area.

North, Central and South America:

100 kHz/10 kHz

Other areas: 50 kHz/9 kHz

Before setting this switch, disconnect the AC power plug of this unit from the AC outlet.
