IMPORTANT (for U.K.Customers)
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug
fitted is not suitable for the power points in your home or the
cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an
appropriate safety approved extension lead or consult your
dealer.
If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the fuse and
dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible shock
hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.
If this product is not provided with a mains plug, or one has to
be fitted, then follow the instructions given below:
IMPORTANT. DO NOT make any connection to the larger
terminal which is marked with the letter E or by the safety earth
symbol | or coloured GREEN or GREEN-and-YELLOW.
The wires in the mains lead on this product are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
BLUE
: NEUTRAL
BROWN : LIVE
As these colours may not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as
follows:
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the
terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured BLACK.
The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the
terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured RED.
When replacing the fuse only a correctly rated approved type
should be used and be sure to re-fit the fuse cover.
IF IN DOUBT -- CONSULT A COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN.

AM Indoor Loop Antenna
The high-performance AM loop antenna provided with this
unit is sufficient for good reception in most areas.
To stand the loop antenna on a surface, fix the claw to the
slot in the antenna base.
Connect the loop antenna's wires to the AM antenna
terminals.
Place the antenna on a shelf or hang it on a window frame,
etc., in the direction which gives the best reception. Keep all
other wires such as power cords, speaker wires or
interconnect wires as far away as possible from the antenna.
B
FM Indoor Antenna
Connect the lead-type FM antenna to the FM 75 socket,
extend the lead and tune the tuner to your favorite station
(see page 6). Adjust the antenna in a suitable location like a
window frame or wall until the reception is best and then
affix the antenna in that position using thumb tacks, push
pins or any other suitable means.
FM Outdoor Antenna
In an area where FM signals are weak, it will be necessary to
use an outdoor FM antenna. Generally, a 3-element antenna
will be sufficient; if you live in an area where the FM signals
are particularly weak, it may be necessary to use one with 5
or more elements.

power cord is connected to an AC outlet.
Caution:
Make sure that the total power consumption of all
equipment connected to this outlet does not exceed 100
watts.
AC Power Cord
After all other connections are complete, connect the plug
to the AC wall socket.
Be sure to connect the power cord to an AC outlet which
supplies the correct voltage.
Hold the power plug when plugging or unplugging the
power cord.

Note:
Even when using an outdoor AM antenna, do not
disconnect the AM loop antenna.
LINE OUT jack
Analog 2-channel audio signal is output from this jack.
Connect this jack to the TUNER jack of the amplifier (A-
H300mk@) with an RCA cable.
Make sure to connect:
white plug q white jack (L: left channel)
red plug q red jack (R: right channel)
REMOTE CONTROL jack
If you have TEAC A-H300mk@, convenient system control
operations are available:
· When you tune in a station, the input selector of the A-
H300mk@ is set to "TUNER" automatically.
· You can use the system remote control unit RC-957
(provided with A-H300mk@) to operate this unit.
Connect the REMOTE CONTROL jack to the REMOTE
CONTROL jack (A or B) of A-H300mk@, R-H300mk@ or PD-
H300mk@ with the provided remote control connection
cord.
Read the owner's manual of A-H300mk@ for details.
Note:

<
If the AM loop antenna provided does not deliver sufficient
reception (often due to being too far from the transmitter or
in a concrete building, etc.), it may be necessary to use an
outdoor AM antenna.
Use either a high quality commercial AM antenna or, if not
available, an insulated wire more than 5 m long, strip one
end, and connect this to the terminal as shown.
The antenna wire should be strung outdoors or indoors near
a window. For better reception, connect the GND terminal
to a reliable ground.
