1 Pull off the protective shields of both AM antenna wires.
2 Push open the tabs, then insert one wire fully into each terminal, then release the tabs to
secure the AM antenna wires.

To fix the stand to the antenna, bend in the direction indicated by the arrow (
fig. a
) then clip the loop onto the
stand (

If you plan to mount the AM antenna to a wall or other surface, secure the stand with screws (

) before
clipping the loop to the stand. Make sure the reception is clear.
4 Place the AM antenna on a flat surface and in a direction giving the best reception.
5 Connect the FM wire antenna into the FM antenna socket.
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a wall or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled up.
