The serial number is located on the rear of the unit.
Retain this Owner’s Manual in a safe place for future
reference.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR
MOISTURE.
The apparatus is not disconnected from the AC power
source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if
the apparatus itself is turned off.
For U.K. customers
If the socket outlets in the home are not suitable for the plug
supplied with this appliance, it should be cut off and an
appropriate 3 pin plug fitted. For details, refer to the
instructions described below.
Note: The plug severed from the mains lead must be
destroyed, as a plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if
engaged in a live socket outlet.
Special Instructions for U.K. Model
IMPORTANT
THE WIRES IN THE MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE:
Blue: NEUTRAL
Brown: LIVE
The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus
may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying
the terminals in your plug. Proceed as follows: the wire
which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal
which is marked with the letter N or coloured BLACK. The
wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the
terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured RED.
Making sure that neither core is connected to the earth
terminal of the three pin plug.

ANTENNA CONNECTIONS
●
Each antenna should be connected to the designated terminals correctly, referring to the following figure.
●
Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas will probably provide sufficient signal
strength. Nevertheless, a properly installed outdoor antenna will give clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience
poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may result in improvement.

Orient so that the best
reception is obtained.
* If you connect an outdoor FM antenna to this unit, do not connect the indoor FM antenna to this unit.
* The AM loop antenna should be placed apart from the main unit. The antenna may be hung on a wall.
* The AM loop antenna should be kept connected, even if an outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.
m Optional outdoor FM antenna
English
Consult with your dealer or authorized service center about the
best method of selecting and erecting an outdoor FM antenna.
The choice of the feeder cable is also important. Flat ribbonshaped twin-lead cable performs well electrically, and is
cheaper and somewhat easier to handle when routing it
through windows and around rooms. Coaxial cable is more
expensive, does a much better job of minimizing interference,
is less prone to the effects of weather and close-by metal
objects, and is nearly as good a signal conductor as feeder
cable, particularly for foam-type coaxial cables. Coaxial cable
is somewhat more difficult to install at the point where the
cable enters the building. If coaxial cable is selected, make
sure the antenna is designed to be used with that type of
cable.

Notes for FM antenna installation
●
To minimize automobile ignition noise, locate the antenna
as far from heavy traffic as possible.
●
Keep the feeder cable or coaxial cable as short as possible.
Do not bundle or roll up excess cable.
●
The antenna should be at least two meters (6.6 feet) from
reinforced concrete walls or metal structures.

m Optional outdoor AM antenna
In steel buildings or at a great distance from the transmitter, it
may be necessary to install an outside long wire antenna.
GND terminal
For maximum safety and minimum interference, connect
the GND terminal to a good earth ground. A good earth
ground is a metal stake driven into moist earth.

Before making any connections, switch OFF the power to
this unit and the amplifier or other component.
●
Be sure that the connections from the left (“L”) and right
(“R”) LINE OUT terminals are connected to the
corresponding (left and right) input terminals of the amplifier
or other component.
Connection cord (included)
●
If you have a YAMAHA amplifier whose terminals on the
rear panel are numbered as 1, 2, 3, etc., connections can
be made easily by making sure to connect the LINE OUT
terminals of this unit to the input terminals of the amplifier
numbered 2.

NOTES ABOUT CONTROLLING THIS UNIT WITH THE REMOTE CONTROL
TRANSMITTER
This unit has a remote control sensor. It receives signals
from a remote control transmitter provided with a YAMAHA
amplifier.
Notes
●
There should be no large obstacles between the remote
control transmitter and the main unit.
●
If the remote control sensor is directly illuminated by strong
lighting (especially an inverter type of fluorescent lamp etc.),
it might cause the remote control transmitter not to work
correctly. In this case, reposition the main unit to avoid
direct lighting.
