English System Installation Connecting the antennas You should connect the additional AM and FM antennas, included with your system, to the rear panel of the media center (Figure 12). Figure 12 Connections for the AM and FM antennas AM antenna lead FM dipole antenna lead Media center rear panel Note: The FM jack (75 ohm) can be used with an outdoor antenna. To do this, consult a qualified installer. Follow all safety instructions supplied with the antenna. CAUTION: Do not attempt to connect a television cable to the FM antenna jack. Connecting the FM antenna Plug the connector on the FM dipole antenna lead into the FM antenna jack. Spread out the antenna arms. Change the orientation of the antenna arms to get optimum FM reception. Place the antenna as far from the media center and other components as possible. Connecting the AM antenna Note: To mount the AM antenna on a wall, follow the instructions enclosed with the antenna. 1. Plug the connector on the AM antenna lead into the AM antenna jack. 2. Stand the loop antenna on the base, following the instructions enclosed with the AM antenna. 3. Move the AM loop antenna as far as possible, at least 20 inches (50 cm), from the media center, and at least 2 feet (60 cm) from the Acoustimass® module. Experiment with the orientation of the loop for optimum AM reception. Note: AM radio reception may be adversely affected by your television. For best AM reception, turn the television off. Connecting to a cable radio provider Some cable TV providers make FM radio signals available through the cable service to your home. This connection is made to the FM antenna jack on the back panel of the media center. To connect to this service, contact your cable TV provider for assistance. Note: Make sure that the cable radio installation includes a signal splitter so that only the FM radio band, not the cable TV band, is received by the media center. If necessary, contact a qualified installer. 16
