5ENGLISH3 CONNECTING THE ANTENNASInstalling the FM indoor antennaTune in FM station (see page 13), set the antenna so thatdistortion and noise is minimal, then secure the tip of theantenna in this position using tape or a pin.Installing the AM loop antennaTune in an AM station (see page 13) and set the antennaas far from the system as possible to keep distortion andnoise is minimal. In some cases, it is best to invert thepolarities. AM broadcasts cannot be received well if theloop antenna is not connected or if it is set close to metalobjects.AM LOOP ANT.ANTENNAFM COAX.75FM antennaAM loop antennaInstalling an AM outdoor antennaConnect the signal wire from the AM outdoor antenna tothe antenna terminal.

Connect an IEC-type connector to the coaxial cable and connect theantenna to the FM COAX (75 Ω/ohms) terminal.Selecting a place for the FM outdoor antenna• Set the antenna so that it points towards the broadcaststation’s transmitting antenna. Behind buildings ormountains, set the antenna in the position at whichreception is best, and also try changing the direction ofthe antenna.• Do not install the antenna under power lines.Doing so is extremely dangerous, as the power linecould touch the antenna.• Install the antenna away from roads or train tracks toavoid noise from cars or trains.• Do not install the antenna too high, as it may be hit bylightning.2 BEFORE USINGRead the following before using the set.• Before turning on the powerCheck again that all connections are correct and thatthere are no problems with the connection cords.
