Connecting up

Important

• Before making or changing any connections, switch off the power and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.

• When making cable connections, make sure not to bend the cables over the top of this unit. This may cause a humming noise from the speakers.

4 Place the AM antenna on a flat surface and point in the direction giving the best reception.

Don’t let it come into contact with metal objects and avoid placing near computers,

television sets or other electrical appliances.

5 Connect the FM wire antenna in the same way as the AM loop antenna.

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

Connecting external antennas

About progressive scan video

Compared to interlace video, progressive scan video effectively doubles the scanning rate of the picture, resulting in a very stable, flickerfree image. Progressive scan video is available only from the component video output.

Important

• If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and switch the system to progressive, you will not be able to see any picture at all. In this case, press



STANDBY/ON

to put the system

in standby, then press and hold the front

Note

1 The component video output is switchable between interlaced and progressive formats. See 2 Consumers should note that not all high-definition television sets are fully compatible with this product and may cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In case of 525 progressive scan picture problems, it is recommended that the user switch the connection to the ‘standard definition’ output (Interlace). If there are questions regarding our TV set compatibility with this model, please contact our customer service center.
