Using the FM and AM Antennas
Before you use your audio system, you’ll want to
make sure both the FM and AM antennas are posi-
tioned properly. Connect the FM antenna to the FM
connector on the back of the unit. Uncoil it, making
sure it is fully extended. (you may even want to tape
it to the wall behind the unit if possible. The higher
the better.)
