Antenna preparation

Unpack the AM antenna and snap it’s cylindrical end onto the base/mounting
plate. Stretch out the twisted cord and Insert the small rectangular plug at the
end into the socket located at the bottom center on the back of the radio. Note,
this plug is keyed and only fits one way. Orient the AM antenna for best
reception of your favorite AM station.


Unroll the FM wire antenna and stretch it out. This antenna is permanently
attached to the back of the radio. Position this antenna for best reception of your
favorite FM station.

Select a location for your radio

Since the radio generates heat during operation it is necessary to provide open
space around it for proper cooling. Failure to do so can significantly reduce the
service life.

Do not place the radio near a heater or in direct sunlight. In addition, the radio
should not be placed atop electronic devices that generate heat.

In many buildings the best radio reception will be had when the antennas are
near a window.

For proper remote control operation there must be an unobstructed path between
the remote and the radio face.

The KC-80 includes an auxiliary input allowing sound from computers, TV sets,
MP3 players, portable tape players, or other device with a headphone output to
play through the KC-80. If this feature will be used, keep in mind the length of
the interconnect cable needed when selecting the location.

Connecting power

Attach the DC power adapter to the DC-In jack on the back of the radio. Plug the
adapter into an always-on (un-switched) AC outlet. Turn on the radio and verify
operation. Use only the supplied adapter.
