2. Subwoofer / Main Speaker Jacks.
3. AM Loop antenna Jacks.
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
positioned properly. Uncoil the FM antenna at
the back of the unit, 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.) You’ll also need to connect the AM
antenna loop to the back of the unit if you listen
to AM stations. Rotate the AM loop antenna for
better reception.
Connecting the Speakers
Each speaker has a black (negative) / red
(positive) wire and a black (negative) / purple
(positive) wire. When connecting the speakers,
match the red / purple wires to the red / purple
jacks and the black wires to the black jacks.
