Connect the supplied antennas.

Connect the FM antenna to FM 75 Ω terminals and the MW/
LW antenna to MW/LW LOOP terminals.

FM antenna

IMPORTANT

• Connect the speakers, antennas, and all optional equipment
first. Then connect the AC cord.

• Both speakers can be connected as L (Left) or R (Right).

ENGLISH

To stand the MW/LW loop antenna on a surface

Fix the claw to the slot.

To position the antennas
FM unipolar antenna:

Extend fully and position for the best possible reception.
This antenna is of an instant type, so the use of an outdoor
antenna is recommended.

MW/LW loop antenna:

Position for the best reception.

• Be sure to connect the speaker cords correctly. Improper
connections can cause short circuits in SPEAKERS terminals.

REMOTE CONTROL

Inserting batteries

Detach the battery cover on the rear of the remote control and
insert two R6 (size AA) batteries.

PREPARATIONS

R6 (AA)

When to replace the batteries

The maximum operational distance between the remote control
and the sensor on the main unit should be approximately 5 meters
(16 feet). When this distance decreases, replace the batteries
with new ones.

Using the remote control

The instructions in this manual refer mainly to the buttons on the
main unit. Buttons on the remote control with the same names
as those on the main unit can be used as well.

• Do not leave objects generating magnetism, such as credit
cards, near the speakers, as these objects may be damaged.

• Do not bring the FM antenna near metal objects or curtain rails.

• Do not bring the MW/LW antenna near other optional

equipment, the stereo system itself, the AC cord or speaker
cords, since noise will be picked up.

• Do not unwind the MW/LW antenna wire.

CONNECTING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA

For better FM reception, use of an outdoor antenna is
recommended.
Connect the outdoor antenna to FM 75 Ω terminals.
