Hookups
This section describes how to hookup antennas, audio components, TV/VCRs, speaker
systems, and external amplifiers.
Notes
• Do not connect the power cord to an AC outlet nor press
the POWER switch before completing all other hookups.
• Be sure to fully insert the cable connectors into the jacks.
Loose connection may cause hum and noise.
• Jacks and plugs of the connecting cord are color-coded as
follows:
Red jacks and plugs: For right channel audio
White jacks and plugs: For left channel audio
Yellow jacks and plugs: For video
Connecting an FM Antenna
Connect the supplied FM wire antenna for temporary use.
For better sound reception, we recommend that you use a
75-ohm coaxial cable (not supplied) instead.
Connecting an AM Antenna
Connect the supplied AM loop antenna to the AM antenna
terminal, as shown below:
If you have poor AM reception
Usually, the supplied AM loop antenna is adequate to
receive AM broadcasts.
If you have poor reception, connect a 20 to 50 ft. (6 to 15-
meter) insulated wire to the AM antenna terminal in
addition to the loop antenna. If possible, extend the wire out
of doors and keep it horizontal.
(Do not remove the AM loop antenna.)
To prevent hum
If you install an outdoor antenna, connect the ground wire to
the ANTENNA ground terminal (/h) for lightning protection.
