Getting Started

This section explains how to connect audio/video components and speakers to the receiver, and how to connect the
power supply.

Before Installation

General

• Be sure your hands are dry.
• Turn the power off to all components.
• Read the manuals supplied with the components you are going to

connect.

Locations

• Install the receiver in a location that is level and protected from

moisture.

• The temperature around the receiver must be between –5˚ and 35˚

C (23˚ and 95˚ F).

• Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor

ventilation could cause overheating and damage the receiver.

Handling the receiver

• Do not insert any metal object into the receiver.
• Do not disassemble the receiver or remove screws, covers, or

cabinet.

• Do not expose the receiver to rain or moisture.

Checking the Supplied Accessories

Check to be sure you have all of the following items, which are
supplied with the receiver.
The number in the parentheses indicates quantity of the pieces
supplied.

• Remote Control (1)

• Batteries (2)

• AM (MW/LW) Loop Antenna (1)

• FM Antenna (1)

If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.

A. Using the Supplied FM Antenna

The FM antenna provided can be connected to the FM 75

Ω

COAXIAL terminal as temporary measure.

B. Using the Standard Type Connector (Not Supplied)

A standard type connector (IEC or DIN45325) should be
connected to the FM 75

Ω

COAXIAL terminal.

Note:

If reception is poor, connect the outside antenna.
Before attaching a 75

Ω

coaxial cable (the kind with a round wire going

to an outside antenna), disconnect the supplied FM antenna.
