Connecting an FM outdoor antenna

Please make sure that you follow the considerations:
• Keep the antenna away from noise sources (neon signs, busy
roads, etc.).
• It is dangerous to put the antenna close to power lines. Keep it
well away from power lines, transformers, etc.
• To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock, grounding
is necessary. Follow item 14 of the "Important Safeguards" on
page 2 when you install the outdoor antenna.
