Connect the speakers to main unit
1 Ensure the mains power is disconnected.
2 Connect the speaker wires between the main unit and the speakers.
Match the speaker wire to the appropriate terminal on the components:
(+) to (+) (colour), and (-) to (-) (black). (If the wires are reversed, the
sound will be distorted and will lack some tones.)
3 Hold down the terminal tab to
insert each wire. Release the tab
to lock the wire into the terminal.
Make sure the bare wire is fully
inserted and that the insulation
reaches right up to the tab leaving
no bare wire visible.
• To avoid short-circuiting the speakers, make sure the the stripped end
of each speaker wire does not touch another terminal or another wire.
Connecting the aerials
Plug the RF coax plug of the FM aerial lead into the external FM antenna
socket.
Assemble the MW loop aerial by bending the stand along the join and
continue to bend until the stand is at the bottom of the aerial. Clip into the
slot in the base of the aerial. Then connect the two wires from the MW
aerial to the external MW antenna terminals (in the same way the speakers
wires are connected).
Take out the DAB antenna and extend it to its full length.
Connect it to the DAB aerial stud by simply screwing it onto
the stud.
