System Connections

When making system connections, please be certain the AC cord is not plugged into an AC outlet.
When making connections between components, please be sure to connect the white RCA plugs to the L (left) and the red
RCA plugs to the R (right) jacks respectively.
Change the position of the FM indoor antenna until you get the best possible reception of your favorite FM stations.
A 75 Ohm outdoor FM antenna may be used to further improve the reception. Disconnect the indoor antenna before
connecting the outdoor antenna.
Place the AM loop antenna as far as possible from the receiver, TV set, speaker cords and the AC input cord and set it to a
direction for the best reception.
If the reception is poor with the AM loop antenna, an AM outdoor antenna can be used in place of the AM loop antenna.
Make all connections firmly and correctly. Failure to do so can cause loss of sound, noise or damage to the receiver.
If the electricity fails or the AC cord is left unplugged for about two weeks, all operating parameters in the unit’s memory
will be lost. Should this happen, you must enter them again.
