Getting Started Hooking Up the System
Antenna Hookups
You can receive radio broadcasts by connecting FM
and AM antennas.
Connecting an outdoor antenna
We recommend that you connect an outdoor antenna
for better reception. Connect an optional FM outdoor
antenna for FM.
Important
If you connect an outdoor antenna, ground it against
lightning. To prevent a gas explosion, do not connect the
ground wire to a gas pipe.
Notes
• Do not use the y SIGNAL GND for this connection.
• To prevent noise pickup, keep the AM loop antenna away
from the receiver and TV.
Infrared (IR) Repeater Hookups
The IR repeater emits infrared signals corresponding to
those emitted by the remote controls supplied with the
components. Connect the IR repeater if:
• You experience difficulty controlling a certain
component using the on-screen display control.
• Your installation configuration prevents the IR
repeater on the receiver’s front panel from reaching
all of the components you need to control.
After connecting the IR repeater, set it above or below
the IR sensor on the component(s) to be controlled.
Each IR repeater can send infrared signals to one
component.
Note
Use the supplied adhesive tape to secure the IR repeater so
that its front faces the component to be controlled.
