Tighten the knob to secure the wire.
If you use two sets (A and B), the impedance of each speaker must be 16 or higher. If you use one set (A or B), the impedance of each speaker must be 4 or higher. Left If you use two sets (A and B), the impedance of each speaker must be 8 or higher.
The Canada model cannot use two speaker sets (A and B) simultaneously when the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch is slid to the right position. If this unit fails to turn on, the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch may not be fully slid to either position. If this is the case, slide the switch all the way to either position when the power supply to this unit is completely cut off.
Connecting the AM and FM antennas
Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas should provide sufficient signal strength. Connect each antenna correctly to the designated terminals.

Outdoor AM antenna

Use a 5 to 10 m of vinylcovered wire extended outdoors from a window.
Indoor FM antenna (included)

Outdoor FM antenna

AM loop antenna (included)

75 UNBAL.

FM ANT

Ground (GND terminal)

For maximum safety and minimum interference, connect the antenna GND terminal to a good earth ground. A good earth ground is a metal stake driven into moist earth.
A properly installed outdoor antenna provides clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may improve the quality. Consult your nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center about outdoor antennas. If you connect an outdoor FM antenna to this unit, do not connect the indoor FM antenna to this unit. To minimize interference from automobile ignition, 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 placed at least 2 meters from reinforced concrete walls or metal structures.
Connecting the AM loop antenna
Set up the AM loop antenna.
Repeat steps 2 to 4 to insert the AM loop antenna lead wires into the GND terminal. Orient the AM loop antenna for the best reception.

Press and hold the tab.

The AM loop antenna should be placed away from this unit. A properly installed outdoor antenna provides clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may improve the quality. It is recommended that you should connect a 5 to 10 m of vinyl-covered wire to the AM ANT terminal and extend it outdoors from a window. Consult your nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center about outdoor antennas. The AM loop antenna should always be connected, even if an outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.

Insert the AM loop antenna lead wires into the AM ANT terminal.

Release the tab.

Connecting the power supply cord
Plug the power supply cord into the AC wall outlet after all other connections are complete.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Refer to the chart below if this unit does not function properly. If the problem you are experiencing is not listed below or if the instructions below do not help, set this unit to the standby mode, disconnect the power cord, and contact the nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center.

General

Problem
This unit fails to turn on.
The power supply cord is not connected or the plug is not completely inserted. The impedance setting is incorrect. The protection circuitry has been activated because of a short circuit, etc. The IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch on the rear panel is not set to either end. This unit has been exposed to a strong external electric shock (such as lightning or strong static electricity).

Remedy

Connect the power supply cord firmly. Set the impedance to match your speakers. Check that the speaker wires are not touching each other and then turn the power of this unit back on. Set the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch to either end when the power of this unit is turned off. Set this unit to the standby mode, disconnect the power supply cord, plug it back in after 30 seconds, then use it normally. Connect the cables properly. If the problem persists, the cables may be defective. Select an appropriate input source with the INPUT selector on the front panel (or one of the input selector buttons on the remote control). Turn on the corresponding SPEAKERS A or SPEAKERS B. Secure the connections. Check that the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR setting is correct. Check that the speaker wires are not touching each other and then turn the power of this unit back on.
