To assemble the AM loop antenna
To connect the AM loop antenna cord
• If the AM loop antenna wire or speaker cords are covered with 
vinyl, remove the vinyl to expose the tip of the antenna by 
twisting the vinyl.
• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other 
terminals, connecting cords and power cord. Also, keep the 
antennas away from metallic parts of the System, connecting 
cords, and the AC power cord. This could cause poor 
condition.
To connect the speaker cords
• When connecting the speaker cords, match the polarity of 
the speaker terminals: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).
• Use only speakers with the same speaker impedance as 
indicated by the speaker terminals on the rear of the unit.
• The speakers are magnetically shielded to avoid color 
distortions on TVs. However, if not installed properly, it 
may cause color distortions. So, pay attention to the 
following when installing the speakers.
– When placing the speakers near a TV set, turn off the 
TV’s main power switch or unplug it before installing 
the speakers.
Then wait at least 30 minutes before turning on the TV’s 
main power switch again.
Some TVs may still be affected even though you have 
followed the above. If this happens, move the speakers 
away from the TV.
