Connecting the AM antenna
Assembling the AM loop antenna
Assemble the loop antenna as shown in the following
illustration.
Connecting the AM antenna cable
Connecting the AM loop antenna
The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in
the direction and position in which you receive the
clearest sound. Locate it as far as possible away from
this unit, televisions, speaker cables, and power
cords.
Connecting an AM outdoor antenna
When reception is not satisfactory with the supplied
AM loop antenna alone, an outdoor antenna is
recommended.
The outdoor antenna will be more effective if it is
stretched horizontally above or outside a window.
• Do not remove the AM loop antenna.
• To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock,
grounding is necessary. Follow item 19 of the
“Important Safeguards” on page 3 when you install
the outdoor antenna.
Directional Iinkage
Do not use the same antenna for both FM and TV (or
VCR) reception since these signals may interfere with
each other. If you must use a common FM/TV (or
VCR) antenna, use a directional linkage type splitter.
Insert into the hole.
