ANTENNA CONNECTIONS Each antenna should be connected to the designated terminals correctly, referring to the following figure. 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.

m Optional outdoor FM antenna
Consult with your dealer or authorized service center about the best method of selecting and erecting an outdoor FM antenna. The choice of the feeder cable is also important. Flat ribbon- shaped twin-lead cable performs well electrically, and is cheaper and somewhat easier to handle when routing it through windows and around rooms. Coaxial cable is more expensive, does a much better job of minimizing interference, is less prone to the effects of weather and close-by metal objects, and is nearly as good a signal conductor as feeder cable, particularly for foam-type coaxial cables. Coaxial cable is somewhat more difficult to install at the point where the cable enters the building. If coaxial cable is selected, make sure the antenna is designed to be used with that type of cable.
* Use a 75-ohm/300-ohm antenna adapter (not included) or a 75-ohm antenna adapter (not included) for connections.
300-ohm feeder cable 75-ohm coaxial cable
75-ohm/300-ohm antenna adapter
Notes for FM antenna installation To minimize automobile ignition noise, locate the antenna
as far from heavy traffic as possible. Keep the feeder cable or coaxial cable as short as possible.
Do not bundle or roll up excess cable. The antenna should be at least two meters (6.6 feet) from
reinforced concrete walls or metal structures.

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
Crackling sounds from time to time (especially in weak signal areas).
FM stereo reception is noisy.
The ST indicator flickers and reception is noisy.
There is distortion and clear reception cannot be obtained even with a good FM antenna.
No stereo effect even with a stereo broadcast.
A desired station cannot be tuned in with Automatic tuning.
Previously preset stations can no longer be tuned in.
Insufficient sensitivity.
A desired station cannot be tuned in with Automatic tuning.
There are continuous crackling and hissing noises.
There are buzzing and whining noises (especially in the evening).
CAUSE
Ignition noise from passing vehicles.
Noise from thermostats or other electrical equipment.
Because of the characteristics of FM stereo broadcasts, this is limited to cases where the transmitter is far away or the antenna input is poor.
Insufficient antenna input.
Not tuned correctly.
There is multipath interference.
The TUNING MODE button is set to the manual tuning mode.
The station is too weak.
The tuner has been unplugged for a long period.
Weak signal or loose antenna connections.
These noises result from lightning, fluorescent lamps, motors, thermostats and other electrical equipment.
Another station is interfering with the received station.
A television set is being used nearby.
REMEDY
The FM antenna should be put up as high as possible, away from the road, and a coaxial cable used.
Attach a noise suppressor to the equipment causing the noise.
Check the antenna connections. Try using a high quality directional FM antenna. Set the TUNING MODE button to the manual tuning mode.
Use an antenna appropriate for the reception condition in your area.
Tune again.
Adjust antenna placement to eliminate multi- path interference.
Set the button so that AUTO lights up on the display.
Use the manual tuning mode. Use a high quality directional FM antenna.
Repeat the presetting procedure.
Tighten the AM loop antenna connections and rotate it for best reception.
Use the manual tuning mode.
Use an outdoor antenna and a ground wire. This will help somewhat but it is difficult to eliminate all noises.
This is impossible to remedy.
Relocate this unit away from the TV.
