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

Remote control
The remote does not function.
Point the remote at the remote sensor on the
receiver.
Remove any obstacles in the path between the
remote and the receiver.
Replace all the batteries in the remote with new
ones, if they are weak.
Check if the command modes of the receiver and
the remote is the same. If the command mode of
the receiver and the remote is different, you
cannot operate the receiver with the remote. To
switch the command mode of the remote, press
?/1 while pressing INPUT MODE. Each time
you press ?/1, the command mode switches
between “C.MODE. AV2” and “C.MODE. AV1”.
(The initial setting is “C.MODE. AV2”.)
Make sure you select the correct input on the
remote.
