The connection is made to the FM 75 EXTERNAL antenna connector on the back of the radio. CAUTION: Be certain that the installation includes a signal splitter so that only the FM band, not the cable TV band, is transmitted to the radio. It is necessary to use a splitter that filters the signal to prevent any re-emissions of the TV spectrum through the radio. 7 Setting Up Setting up the remote control WARNING: Keep the remote control battery away from children. Do not recharge, disassemble, heat above 100°C (212°F), or incinerate. Replace only with a battery of the correct type and model number. Your remote control may be one of two types (Figure 4A or 4B). Each is identified by the way the battery compartment unlocks to install or replace the battery. Slide the battery compartment open.
