Connecting the Antennas
This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna.
The CD receiver won't pick up any radio signals if no antenna is connected, so you must connect the antenna to use the
tuner.
Connecting the Indoor FM Antenna
Insert the plug fully into
the jack.
Note:
• Once your CD receiver is ready for use, you'll need to tune into a radio station and position the antenna to achieve
the best possible reception.
Connecting the AM Loop Antenna
The supplied indoor AM loop antenna is for indoor use only.
1
Assemble the AM loop antenna, inserting
the tabs into the base, as shown.
2
Plug the AM loop
antenna into the
AM antenna jack,
as shown.
Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied
indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available
outdoor FM antenna instead.
Note:
• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable
results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an
attic or loft.
• For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well
away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line
of sight to your local FM transmitter.

■ Adjusting the AM Loop Antenna
Adjust the location and position of
the AM antenna while listening to
an AM station to achieve the best
possible reception.
• Outdoor antenna should be located away from
possible noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads,
etc.
• For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situated
well away from power lines and other high-voltage
equipment.
• Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance
with local regulations to prevent electrical shock
hazards.
