Connecting other audio components

The number and kind of connections depends on the kind of
component you’re connecting. Follow the steps below to
connect a CD-R, MD, DAT, tape recorder or other audio
component.

• Note that you must connect digital components to analog

audio jacks if you want to record to/from digital
components (like an MD) to/from analog components.

Note

• In order to listen to the audio from the CD player that is

connected to this receiver using a coaxial cable, first,
switch to the

CD-R input, then press SIGNAL SEL to

choose the audio signal

C1 (COAXIAL1).

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.
