Connecting the AM loop antenna
1
Set up the AM loop antenna.
2
Press and hold the tab.
3
Insert the AM loop antenna lead wires into
the AM ANT terminal.
4
Release the tab.
5
Repeat steps 2 to 4 to insert the AM loop
antenna lead wires into the GND terminal.
6
Orient the AM loop antenna for the best
reception.
• 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 your nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service
center about outdoor antennas.
• The AM loop antenna should always be connected, even if an
outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.
