Notes
• The AM loop antenna should be placed away from this unit.
• A properly installed outdoor antenna provides clearer reception
than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an
outdoor antenna may improve the quality. It is recommended
that you should connect a 5 to 10 m of vinyl-covered wire to the
AM ANT terminal and extend it outdoors from a window.
Consult the nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service
center for more details about outdoor antennas.
• The AM loop antenna should always be connected, even if an
outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.
■ Connecting the indoor FM antenna
Insert the rectangular end of the indoor FM
antenna into the FM ANT terminal.
