Operating Instructions
HD Radio Broadcasting was approved by the Federal
Communications Commission in October 2002 as the
system for digital AM and FM broadcasting in the U.S.
As the main plug is used to disconnect the unit from the
mains, connect the unit to an easily accessible AC outlet.
Should you notice an abnormality in the unit, disconnect

3 Connect the cords to the AM antenna
terminals.
Cord (A) or cord (B) can be connected to either
terminal.
HD Radio technology features include:
– Static-free, clear radio reception.
– FM Multicasting – the ability to broadcast multiple
program streams over a single FM frequency.
– A variety of “data services,” including text-based
information – artist name, song title, etc. scrolled
across your receiver display.
– Digital broadcasts in the same frequencies as analog
broadcasts; listeners do not need to learn a new station
number and today’s stations remain at their current
place on the dial.

INFORMATION
is equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. ese limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. is equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio
or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
Tip
Adjust the direction of the AM loop antenna for best AM
broadcast sound.
Precautions
• Play the unit on the power source specified in
“Specifications”.
To connect the FM antenna
• To disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), pull it
out by the plug, not the cord.
• e unit is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.
• e nameplate, the symbol for CLASS II and the dating
code are located on the bottom exterior.
• Do not leave the unit in a location near a heat source
such as a radiator or airduct, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or
shock.
• Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat
build-up. Do not place the unit on a surface (a rug, a
blanket, etc.) or near materials (a curtain) which might
block the ventilation holes.
is unit comes supplied with an FM dipole antenna.
Connect an antenna that provides good reception to the
FM antenna terminal.
FM dipole antenna
(supplied)
— Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
— Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.
— Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit,
unplug the unit and have it checked by a qualified
personnel before operating it any further.
• To clean the casing, use a soſt cloth dampened with a
mild detergent solution.
• Never touch the wire of the external FM antenna
during a thunderstorm. Furthermore, immediately
disconnect the AC power code from the radio.
— Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
Important Safety Instructions
1) Read these instructions.
Adjusting the FM dipole antenna
Be sure to fully extend the FM dipole antenna. Attach the
antenna in the shape of a T to a high position on a wall
away from this unit.
2) Keep these instructions.
3) Heed all warnings.
4) Follow all instructions.
5) Do not use this apparatus near water.

If you have poor FM reception, use a 75 Ω coaxial cable
(not supplied) to connect the unit to an outdoor FM
antenna as shown below.
8) Do not install near any heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two
blades with one wider than the other. A grounding
type plug has two blades and a third grounding
prong. e wide blade or the third prong are
provided for your safety. If the provided plug does
not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for
