• Before making or changing antenna
connections, make sure that the power is
switched off and the unit disconnected
from the wall power outlet.
1
Pull off the protective shields of both
AM antenna wires.
2
Push open the tabs, then insert one
wire fully into each terminal.
3
Release the tabs to secure the AM
antenna wires.
4
Fix the AM loop antenna to the
attached stand.
To fix the stand to the antenna, bend in the
direction indicated by the arrow (
fig. a
) then
clip the loop onto the stand (
fig. b
).
• If you plan to mount the AM antenna to a
wall or other surface, secure the stand
with screws (
fig. c
) before clipping the
loop to the stand. Make sure the reception
is clear.
5
Place the AM antenna on a flat surface
and point in the direction giving the best
reception.
Don’t let it come into contact with metal
objects and avoid placing near computers,
television sets or other electrical appliances.
6
Connect the FM wire antenna in the
same way as the AM loop antenna.
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully
and fix to a wall or door frame. Don’t drape
loosely or leave 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
Connecting external antennas
on page 13 for
connection details.
• The signal ground (
) is designed to
reduce noise that occurs when an
antenna is connected. It is not an
electrical safety ground.
Connecting external antennas
