ANTENNA CONNECTIONS
Each antenna should be correctly connected to the designated terminals, referring to the following diagram.
Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas will probably provide sufficient signal
strength. Nevertheless, a properly installed outdoor antenna will give clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor
reception quality, an outdoor antenna may result in improvement.
GND terminal
For maximum safety and minimum interference, connect the
GND terminal to a good earth ground. A good earth ground
is a metal stake driven into moist earth.

* If you cannot obtain good
reception with the AM loop
antenna, connect 5 m to
10 m of vinyl covered wire
to the AM ANT terminal
and extend it outdoors
from a window. (Be sure
to also connect the AM
loop antenna at this time.)
Indoor FM antenna
(included)
* Firmly insert the
connector into the FM
ANT terminal.
Loop antenna
Antenna stand
* You may be unable to obtain good FM radio
reception depending on your local
conditions (distance from the broadcast
station, interposing buildings and
mountains, etc.). Consult your dealer or
authorized service center and be sure to
install an antenna that suits your local
conditions.
Install the special FM outdoor antenna in a
high place as far away from any roads as
possible to avoid being affected by
automobile ignition noise.
