AM loop antenna
1 Assemble the stand as shown in the illustration.
1
• Bend the stand in the direction indicated ( fig. A).
• Clip the loop into the stand ( fig. B).
• It’s possible to fix the AM antenna to a wall ( fig. C).
Before fixing, make sure that the reception is
satisfactory.
2 Pull off the protective shields of both AM antenna
wires.
3 Press the AM LOOP antenna terminal tabs to open
and insert one wire into each terminal.
4 Release the tabs to secure the AM antenna wires.
5 Place the AM antenna on a flat surface and point in
the direction giving the best reception.
Avoid placing near computers, television sets or other
electrical appliances and do not let it come into contact
with metal objects.
FM wire antenna
• Connect the FM wire antenna to the FM UNBAL
75
Ω in the same way as the AM antenna.
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a
wall or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled up.
Connecting external antennas
To improve FM reception connect an external FM
antenna to the
FM UNBAL 75 Ω.
To improve AM reception, connect a 5 m to 6 m (16 ft. to
20 ft.) length of vinyl-coated wire to the
AM LOOP
terminals without disconnecting the supplied AM loop
antenna.
For the best possible reception, suspend horizontally
outdoors.
Plugging in the receiver
Only plug in after you have connected all your
components to this receiver, including the speakers.
• Plug the AC power cord into a convenient AC power
outlet.
Caution
• Handle the power cord by the plug part. Do not pull
out the plug by tugging the cord, and never touch the
power cord when your hands are wet, as this could
cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not place
the unit, a piece of furniture, or other object on the
power cord or pinch the cord in any other way. Never
make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cables. The
power cords should be routed so that they are not
likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can
cause a fire or give you an electric shock. Check the
power cord once in a while. If you find it damaged,
ask your nearest Pioneer authorized independent
service company for a replacement.
• The receiver should be disconnected by removing the
mains plug from the wall socket when not in regular
use, e.g., when on vacation.
• Make sure the blue  STANDBY/ON light has gone
out before unplugging.
Note
1 Do not use any antennas other than the supplied AM loop antenna.
