Precautions Notes on the power cord • When you are away on travel or otherwise for an extended period of time, remove the plug from the wall outlet. A small amount of power (2.5 W) is always consumed while the power cord is connected to the wall outlet. • When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the power cord. • Do not handle the power cord with wet hands. • Disconnect the power cord before cleaning the System or moving the System.
Connections Do not connect the AC power cord until all other connections have been made. NOTES • 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 reception. • If the cords are covered with vinyl, remove the vinyl to expose the tip of the cord by twisting the vinyl.
To connect the AM loop antenna 1 Hold 2 Insert 3 Release AM loop antenna (supplied) Turn it until the best reception is obtained. To assemble the AM loop antenna For better FM/AM reception Outdoor FM antenna (not supplied) Disconnect the supplied FM antenna, and connect to an outdoor FM antenna using a 75 W wire with coaxial type connector (IEC or DIN45325). Vinyl-covered wire (not supplied) Extend it horizontally. AM loop antenna Keep it connected.

What is DAB system? DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) is one of the digital radio broadcasting systems available today. It can deliver digital quality sound without any annoying interference or signal distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures and data. In contrast to FM broadcast, where each program is transmitted on its own frequency, DAB combines several programs (called “services”) to form one “ensemble.
Receiving FM Stations with Radio Data System Radio Data System allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals. With the System, you can receive the following types of Radio Data System signals. PS (Program Service): Shows commonly known station names. PTY (Program Type): Shows types of broadcast programs. RT (Radio Text): Shows text messages the station sends.
Switching Temporarily to a Program of Your Choice Automatically Presetting Stations and Services You can preset 30 FM stations, 15 AM stations and 30 DAB services manually. The Enhanced Other Networks function allows the System to switch temporarily to a preset FM station broadcasting a program of your choice (TA, NEWS, or INFO). • This function works while listening to an FM program providing the required signals.
Connecting a Portable Audio Device This System has LINE IN/OUT jacks to connect a portable audio device. Connect between the device and the System by using the stereo mini plug cord (not supplied). IMPORTANT: It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video recording, broadcast or cable programme and in any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic embodied therein.
NOTE If an external device is not equipped with a stereo mini plug audio output, use a plug adaptor to convert the stereo mini plug to the corresponding plug of the audio output.
