AM Antenna Connections
An AM loop antenna is included in the installation instructions bag.
Take out the connection line and connect it to the AM antenna
terminals. This loop antenna can be placed on top of any stable
surface or attached to a wall. Try several positions to determine
which gives the best reception. Be sure the antenna is not near a
speaker, power cord, television set, VCR, or motorized appliances.
When using an external AM antenna, do not remove the loop an-
tenna; connect both antennas to the AM antenna terminals.
