CONNECTIONS
Both FM and AM indoor antennas are supplied with this 
unit. In general, these antennas should provide sufficient 
signal strength. Connect each antenna correctly to the 
designated terminals.
• The AM loop antenna should be placed away from this unit.
• The AM loop antenna should always be connected, even if an 
outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.
• A properly installed outdoor antenna provides clearer reception 
than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, 
install an outdoor antenna. Consult the nearest authorized 
YAMAHA dealer or service center about outdoor antennas.
