Speakers

• You must peel off the insulation (covering) from the tip of the speaker cable to expose the conductor.

• Check the connections; make sure that left and right (L, R) and polarity (red: +, black: –) are connected correctly. If connections are incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and the low frequencies may be insufficient. There might not be any sound at all if connections are incorrect.

• Take care that the conductors of the speaker cable do not touch each other, and that the conductors do not touch any other metal part. Such conditions can damage this unit or the speakers.

• Use only the supplied speakers. Using other speakers may result in unnatural sound.

• If you’re using this unit nearby a CRT display and you notice distorted color or noise in the display, move the speakers farther away from the display.

Twist the bare wires tightly so the individual strands are not splayed.

FM antenna

Be sure to stretch out the antenna.
