2 Connecting Up
4 Point the AM antenna in the direction giving
the best reception.
Avoid placing near computers, television sets or other
electrical appliances, and do not let it come into contact with
metal objects.
Note: The signal earth (
H) is designed to reduce noise that
occurs when an antenna is connected. It is not an electrical
safety earth.
FM wire antenna
The kind of FM antenna supplied depends on the region in
which you live.
1 Plug in the FM wire antenna (UK model only).
2 Connect the FM wire antenna in the same way
as the AM antenna (non-UK models).
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a wall
or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave it coiled up. The
supplied FM antenna is a simple means of receiving FM
stations; using a dedicated, outdoor FM antenna will usually
give you better reception and sound quality. See below for
connection details.
3 Slide on the top panel cover.
The top panel cover has slots to accommodate the antenna
wires.
Connecting external
antennas
If you find reception quality is poor with the supplied indoor
antennas, try connecting outdoor antennas (not supplied).
External AM antenna
Use 5–6 meters of vinyl-insulated wire and set up either
indoors or outdoors. Leave the AM loop antenna connected.
