CONNECTIONS
Before connecting the AC cord
The rated voltage of your system shown on the rear panel Is 120
V AC. Check that the rated voltage matches your local voltage.
IMPORTANT
• Connect the speakers, antennas, and all optional equipment
first. Then connect the AC cord in the end.
• There are no differences between the front speakers. Both
speakers can be connected as L (Left) or R (Right).
7 Place the CD player unit on top of the tuner/
amplifier unit and piug in the connector of the
flat cable as shown below.
Note that the connector can be plugged in in only one direction
with the flat cable facing right.
2 Connect the speaker cords to the tuner/amplifier
unit.
The speaker cord from the right speaker should be connected
to the "R" jack and the cord from the left speaker to the "L"
jack.
After plugging in the connector, allow adequate clearance
between the flat cable and the ventilation openings.
3 Connect the supplied antennas.
Connect the FM antenna to the FM 75 Q. terminals and the
AM antenna to the AM LOOP terminals.
4 Connect the AC cord to an AC outlet.
When the AC cord is connected for the first time, the display

In this case, make sure that the flat cable does not obstruct the
ventilation openings, as shown below.
Always leave adequate clearance between the flat cable and
the ventilation openings.
CONNECTING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA
