Installing and Setting Up the AV100
You can begin to enjoy your AV100 Radio system as soon as the installation is completed as follows:
1. Determine the desired area where the unit is to be installed; i.e., table top, stereo cabinet, etc.
Note: If possible, the unit should be positioned near a window to achieve the best reception with the AM
and FM antennae.
2. Make sure the line power rocker switch at the rear of the unit is in the off (O) position. Then plug the
power cable into the mating connector located to the right of the switch. Plug the other end of the cable
into a walloutlet supplying 120 volts, 60Hz.
Note: If the line switch is in the on (I) position when the power cord is plugged into the outlet, the mode
LED indicators on top of the unit will all flash on for 2 seconds and then go out. If the switch is
then turned off, the indicators will momentarily flash on and go out.
3. Connect the FM antenna lead to the FMANTENNA (F) connector at the rear of the unit.
4. Construct theAM antenna stand:
a. Hold the antenna loop upside down.
b. Fold the stand piece up and over, mating the slot on this piece with the three tabs on the bottom of
the antenna. Press until the two pieces snap together, making sure the antenna lead wire exits
cleanly through the side of the stand.
5. Connect theAM antenna lead wires into the 300-OhmAMANTENNA terminals at the rear of the unit.
6. Press the line power rocker switch on the rear of the unit to the on ( I ) position; the mode LEDs flash on
for 2 seconds and then go out.
7. Momentarily press the POWER ( ) button on top of the unit; the audio power output vacuum tubes
visible through each window at the front of the unit light up, indicating the unit is powered on. In addition,
the mode LED on the top will light indicating the mode in affect prior to power turnoff.
AV100 Control Features
TheAV100 provides 3 control buttons, plus a volume control wheel and a tuning knob (See Figure x.)
Power On/Off:
1. Press the Line Power rocker switch at the rear of the unit to the on ( I ) position; the mode LEDs flash for
2 seconds and go out.
2. With the line power switch on, power is applied to the radio system when the Power ( ) button on top of
the AV100 or on the Remote Control is momentarily pressed; the mode LED indicating the last system
mode in effect prior to turnoff lights blue, and the Radio system is ready for use.
3. Power is turned off when the Power button is momentarily pressed; the mode LEDs flash once and the unit
powers down as evidenced by the audio output tubes turning off .

MODE Button
Each time the MODE button is pressed, the operating status of the unit changes in sequence from AM through
AUX 2; as the mode changes, the associated blue LED lights accordingly. When the AV100 is turned off, the
last operating mode in effect at the time is re-established when the unit is again turned on.
VOLUME Control
The VOLUME control provides a continuously adjustable ( 360° ) audio level; when rotated clockwise (CW), the
volume level increases, and counterclockwise (CCW) rotation decreases the volume level.
Tuning Knob
The tuning knob has top and bottom dial graduations indicating FM andAM frequency settings, respectively.
The amber TUNE LED indicator to the right of the control lights as each station is selected on the associated
dial; the brightness of the indicator varies in proportion to both the strength of the station signal and the station
tuning accuracy. The indicator is the brightest when the station signal strength is maximum and when optimum
station tuning is achieved. When the FM station is broadcasting in stereo, the green STEREO LED indicator to
the left of the control comes on provided signal strength is adequate.
Remote Control Features
The remote control provides control of AV100 operation using an infrared (IR) transmitter whose signal is picked
up by the IR receiver at the front of the unit.
1. MONO/STEREO Button: When pressed, alternately selects
stereo or mono mode operation forAV100; the STEREO LED
indicator lights green on the front of the unit.

AV100 Operation
Preoperational Considerations
Prior to operation, perform the following steps:
1. Remove the protective film from the battery compartment of the remote control.
2. Connect the power and antenna cables to theAV100 as outlined previously.
3. Apply line power to the AV100 by pressing the line power rocker switch on the rear of the unit to the on (I)
position; the mode LEDs flash on for 2 seconds and then go out. The AV100 is now in the standby mode.
4. Press the POWER button on the top of the unit or on the remote control to turn the unit on; the last
operating mode in effect prior to shutdown is indicated by the blue LED on top of the unit, unless the
AV100 is being turned on for the first time.
Note: Despite a low degree of energy consumption in the standby mode, it is recommended that the line
switch be set to the off (O) position if the AV100 is not going to be used for a prolonged period.
5. Select an input source using the MODE button.
Note: If an external subwoofer is to be incorporated into theAV100 system, connect the subwoofer to the
SUB OUT plug at the rear of the unit using an RCA cable with a male RCA jack.
Using the Radio
1. FM Operation: With the supplied FM antenna connected to the FM ANTENNA jack at the rear of the unit,
press the MODE switch so the blue FM indicator is lit. Set the FM radio to the desired station using the
upper tuning knob dial, and adjust the volume to the desired listening level. If headphones are to be used,
connect them to the headphones jack (
) at the front of the unit.
2. AM Operation: With the supplied AM antenna connected to the AM ANTENNA jack at the rear of the unit,
press the MODE switch so the blue AM indicator is lit. Set the AM radio to the desired station using the
bottom tuning knob dial, and adjust the volume to the desired listening level. If headphones are to be used,
connect them to the headphones jack (
) at the front of the unit.
Using the AUX Inputs
1. AUX 1 Input: If an external audio source is to be used, such as MP3 player, etc., connect the device to
the AUX 1 input at the front of the unit using a 3.5mm male stereo plug.
