CONNECTING SPEAKERS Connect the SPEAKERS terminals to your speakers with wire of the proper gauge, cut as short as possible. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers. Make sure that the polarity of the speaker wires is correct, that is, + and – markings are observed. If these wires are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and will lack bass.
● ● Each antenna should be connected to the designated terminals correctly, referring to the following diagram. Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas will probably provide sufficient signal strength. Nevertheless, a properly installed outdoor antenna will give clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may result in improvement.

Selecting the SPEAKER system Because one or two speaker systems can be connected to this unit, the SPEAKERS switches allow you to select speaker system A or B, or both at once. SPEAKERS A B ON ON OFF OFF Using the PURE DIRECT switch RX-495RDS only You can enjoy the purest possible sound from your audio sources by pressing this switch inward. By doing so, the audio signal bypasses the BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE and LOUDNESS controls, eliminating any alterations to the audio signal.
Normally, if station signals are strong and there is no interference, quick automatic-search tuning (AUTOMATIC TUNING) is possible. However, if signals of the station you want to select are weak, you must tune to it manually (MANUAL TUNING). 2 1 3 AUTOMATIC TUNING 1 MANUAL TUNING Select the reception band (FM or AM) confirming it on the display. 1 Select the reception band (FM or AM) confirming it on the display.
PRESET TUNING MANUAL PRESET TUNING This unit can store station frequencies (selected by tuning operation) by using the PRESET STATIONS buttons. With this function, you can recall any desired station by only pressing the corresponding PRESET STATIONS button. Up to 40 stations (8 stations x 5 groups) can be stored. 2 4 3 To store stations 1 2 Tune to a desired station. (Refer to the previous page for tuning procedure.
English 1 2 To recall a preset station 1 Notes A new setting can be programmed in place of the former one. ● For presets, the setting of the reception mode (stereo or monaural) is stored along with the station frequency. Select the group of preset stations.
AUTOMATIC PRESET TUNING You can also make use of an automatic preset tuning function for FM stations only. By this function, this unit performs automatic tuning and stores FM stations with strong signals sequentially. Up to 40 stations are stored automatically in the same way as in the manual preset tuning method on page 18. * RX-495RDS and RX-395RDS only Only RDS stations can be stored by this function.
English EXCHANGING PRESET STATIONS You can exchange the places of two preset stations with each other as shown below. 2, 4 Example) If you want to shift the preset station on E1 to A5, and vice versa. 1 Recall the preset station on E1 (by following the method of “To recall a preset station” on page 19). 2 4 EDIT EDIT RX-395 RX-395 RX-495RDS, RX-395RDS RX-495RDS, RX-395RDS MEMO MEMORY Flashes. 3 Shows the exchange of stations is completed.

In areas where RDS broadcasts cannot be received, the RDS broadcast functions do not operate. (The procedures from page 22 to page 26 are not necesssary.) RECEIVING RDS STATIONS RX-495RDS and RX-395RDS only RDS (Radio Data System) is a data transmission system gradually being introduced by FM stations in many countries. Stations using this system transmit an inaudible stream of data in addition to the normal radio signal.
English Programs types in the PTY mode NEWS News: Short accounts of facts, events and publicly expressed views, reportage and actuality. AFFAIRS Current affairs: Topical program expanding or enlarging upon the news, generally in different presentation style or concept, including documentary debate, or analysis. INFO SPORT Information: Program whose purpose is to impart advice in the widest sense, including meteorological reports and forecasts, consumer affairs, medical help, etc.
Changing the RDS modes When an RDS station is received, “PS”, “PTY”, “RT” and/or “CT” that correspond to the RDS data services employed by the station light up on the display. By pressing the RDS MODE/FREQ button once or more, you can change the display mode among the RDS modes employed by the received station in the order shown below. (The RDS mode not employed by the station cannot be selected.
English Calling a program of your desired program type from among preset RDS stations (PTY SEEK) By designating a program type, the unit automatically searches all preset stations for an RDS station which broadcasts a program of that program type. * There are 15 program types to classify RDS stations. For details, refer to page 23. 3 1 1 3 Turn the unit into the PTY SEEK mode. PTY SEEK 2 EON Begin searching all preset RDS stations.
Making this unit call a program of your desired program type automatically when its broadcast starts This function uses the EON (Enhanced Other Networks) data service on the RDS station network. By only selecting a desired program type (NEWS, INFO, AFFAIRS or SPORT), this unit automatically searches all preset RDS stations for a station that broadcasts a program of that program type in the background, and, if found, receives a program when its broadcast starts in place of the program now being received.
Battery installation English NOTES ABOUT THE REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER Remote control transmitter operation range 2 Remote control sensor 1 3 Within approximately 6 m (19.7 feet) 30° 30° Battery replacement If you find that the remote control transmitter must be used closer to the main unit, the batteries are weak. Replace both batteries with new ones. Notes ● Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement. ● Be sure the polarities are correct. (See the illustration inside the battery compartment.
TROUBLESHOOTING If the unit fails to operate normally, check the following points to determine whether the fault can be corrected by the simple measures suggested. If it cannot be corrected, or if the fault is not listed in the SYMPTOM column, disconnect the power cord and contact your authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center for help. SYMPTOM Amplifier REMEDY Power cord is not plugged in or is not completely inserted. Firmly plug in the power cord. No sound. Incorrect output cord connections.
