jack on the front panel of this receiver.
• Check that the components are connected 
securely.
• Check that the cord used for the 
connection is fully inserted into the jacks 
on both the receiver and the component.
• This is not a malfunction and will depend 
on the connected component.
There is no sound, or only a very low-
level sound is heard from the center/

Tuner
The FM reception is poor.
• Use a 75-ohm coaxial cable (not supplied) 
to connect the receiver to an outdoor FM 
antenna as shown below. If you connect 
the receiver to an outdoor antenna, ground 
it against lightning. To prevent a gas 
explosion, do not connect the ground wire 
to a gas pipe.
Radio stations cannot be tuned in.
• Check that the antennas are connected 
securely. Adjust the antennas and connect 
an external antenna, if necessary.
• The signal strength of the stations is too 
weak (when tuning in with automatic 
tuning). Use direct tuning.
• Make sure you set the tuning interval 
correctly (when tuning in AM stations 
with direct tuning).
• No stations have been preset or the preset 
stations have been cleared (when tuning by 
scanning preset stations). Preset the 
stations (page 48).
• Press DISPLAY repeatedly on the receiver 
so that the frequency appears on the 
display.
RDS does not work.*
• Make sure that you are tuned to an FM 
RDS station.
• Select a stronger FM station.
