Connecting antennas

Connect the AM loop antenna and the FM wire antenna as
shown below. To improve reception and sound quality,
connect external antennas (see Using external antennas
below).

1

Push open the tabs, then insert one wire fully into each

terminal, then release the tabs to secure the AM antenna
wires.

2

Fix the AM loop antenna to the attached stand.

To fix the stand to the antenna, bend in the direction
indicated by the arrow (fig. a) then clip the loop onto the
stand (fig. b).

3

Place the AM antenna on a flat surface and in a direction

giving the best reception.

4

Connect the FM wire antenna into the FM antenna

socket.
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a wall
or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled up.

Using external antennas

To improve FM reception
Use a PAL connector (not supplied) to connect an external
FM antenna.

To improve AM reception
Connect a 5 m to 6 m length of vinyl-coated wire to the AM
antenna terminal 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.

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.

• Do not use any power cord other than the one supplied

with this unit.

• Do not use the supplied power cord for any purpose other

than that described below.

• The receiver should be disconnected by removing the

mains plug from the wall socket when not in regular use,
e.g., when on vacation.

Note

• After this receiver is connected to an AC outlet, a 2

second to 10 second HDMI initialization process begins.
You cannot carry out any operations during this process.
The

HDMI indicator in the front panel display blinks

during this process, and you can turn on this receiver
once it has stopped blinking. When you set the

Control

with HDMI to

OFF, you can skip this process. For details

about the

Control with HDMI feature, see Control with

HDMI function on Operating Instructions in CD-ROM.

1

Plug the supplied power cord into the AC IN socket on

the back of the receiver.

2

Plug the other end into a power outlet.
