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.

securely. Adjust the antennas and connect
an external antenna, if necessary.

stations have been cleared (when tuning by
scanning preset stations). Preset the
