[. . . ] Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the entire system, speaker cords and the power cord to prevent unwanted noise. PLACING THE SPEAKERS 1. Place the front left and right speakers at equal distances from the TV. Install the center speaker above or below the TV so the center channel's sound is localized at the TV screen. C aution: If you choose to install the center speaker on top of the TV, be sure to secure it to reduce the risk of damage or injury resulting from the speaker falling from the TV in the event of the TV being bumped. N ote: Try not to install the rear speakers farther away from the listening position than the front and center speakers. Place the optional subwoofer on the floor near the L or R front speakers. AM Outdoor Antenna If the supplied AM loop antenna does not deliver sufficient reception, use an outdoor AM antenna (not supplied). For better reception, connect the GND terminal to a reliable ground. Caution: Be sure all speakers are installed securely to prevent accidents and improve sound quality. CONNECTING THE SPEAKERS When connecting equipment, always make sure the power is switched off and the power cord is disconnected from the wall outlet. Press up (or down) the speaker's terminal and insert the appropriate wire ends. Black wires to black terminals and red wires to other terminals N ote: Be sure to connect each speaker to the appropriate speaker terminal, connecting positive to positive (+ to +) and negative to negative (­ to ­). Connect the front speakers wires to the receiver's SPEAKERS FRONT L and R terminals. Connect the surround speakers' wires to the receiver's SPEAKERS REAR L and R terminals. NOTE : Pressing for about a second and releasing the TUNING/PRESET or buttons activates the auto tuning function allowing the tuner to automatically scan to the next clear station. Pressing the TUNING/ PRESET or for less than a half second changes the frequency by one step. Auto Preset 1. The tuner automatically begins scanning, and stores the first 30 strong signals it receives. Scanning stops automatically after radio stations are stored in the auto preset memory. To store stations on the other band, repeat Steps 1­4, substituting the other band in Step 1. Listening to Preset Stations To listen to a radio station stored in the station memory, press the TUNING/PRESET or to go to the desired preset station. Listening To FM Stereo Broadcasts In FM mode, press the STEREO button on the front of the DVD99 until S T appears to the right of Tuned. When you listen to very weak FM stereo stations, you might hear higher-than-normal background hiss. Switching to mono (no ST indicator) may eliminate the hiss. Switching Between Preset Stations and Manual Tuning If you store preset stations, pressing TUNING/PRESET scrolls through the preset stations, rather than changing the frequency station by station. To switch to scrolling by individual stations, press the TUNING MODE button until TUNING appears in the display. Then, press the TUNING/PRESET or buttons to change the frequency by one step. Or hold down TUNING/ PRESET or buttons to tune to the next clear station. To switch back to scrolling through the preset stations, press TUNING MODE, until PRESET appears in the display.
