Connecting an Antenna—Continued

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied 
indoor FM antenna, try using a commercially available out-
door FM antenna instead.

Notes:
• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable 

results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an 
attic or loft.

• For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well away 

from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line of sight to 
the transmitter.

• Outdoor antennas should be located away from possible 

noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.

• For safety reasons, an outdoor antenna should be situated 

well away from power lines and other high-voltage 
equipment.

• Outdoor antennas must be grounded in accordance with 

local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.

■ Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter

It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV 
reception, as this can cause interference problems. If cir-
cumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as 
shown.

If good reception cannot be achieved using the supplied AM 
loop antenna, an outdoor AM antenna can be used in addi-
tion to the loop antenna, as shown.

Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed horizon-
tally outside, but good results can sometimes be obtained 
indoors by mounting it horizontally above a window. Note 
that the AM loop antenna should be left connected.
Outdoor antennas must be grounded in accordance with 
local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.

Once the CD Receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to 
tune into an DAB station and adjust the position of the 
DAB antenna to achieve the best possible reception.
