Memory backup
The T-4555P uses a battery-less memory backup system
in order to retain radio presets and other settings when it’s
unplugged or in the case of a power failure. Although no
batteries are required, the T-4555P must be plugged into
an AC outlet in order to charge the backup system.
Once it has been charged, the T-4555P will retain the
settings for several weeks, although this depends on the
environment and will be shorter in humid climates.

apply a little more pressure so that the board
plugs fully into the connector. Make sure the
board’s panel is flush with the T-4555P’s rear
panel.
Use the Allen wrench to screw tight the
two hexagonal socket head screws so
that the board is secure.
5
Note:
To remove an existing tuner board, use the fol-
lowing procedure.
Screw the supplied removal thumbscrews
into the two holes just below the holes
that were used by the hexagonal socket
head screws. Screw them in about 3/16"
(5 mm). Hold and pull both of the thumb-
screws to remove the board.

75
If any of the screws use washers, be sure to reuse
them when installing or removing a board.
Carefully remove the board from its bag.
3
To prevent electrostatic
damage, hold the board by
its panel, taking care not
to touch any of the com-
ponents or the underside

Connecting Antennas
This section explains how to connect the indoor FM
antenna and AM loop antenna, and how to connect com-
mercially available outdoor FM and AM antennas.
Connecting the AM Loop Antenna
The indoor AM loop antenna is for indoor use only.
* An indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna are sup-
plied with each tuner board.
Assemble the AM loop antenna, inserting
the tabs into the base, as shown.
1
FM antenna jack
AM antenna push terminals
Connect both wires of the AM loop
antenna to the AM push terminals, as
shown.
2
(The antenna’s wires are not polarity sensitive, so
they can be connected either way around).
Connecting the Indoor FM Antenna
Make sure that the wires are attached securely and
that the push terminals are gripping the bare
wires, not the insulation.
The indoor FM antenna is for indoor use only.
Attach the FM antenna, as shown.
1
Insert the plug fully
into the jack.
Push
Insert wire
Release
Once the T-4555P is ready for use, you’ll need to
tune into an FM radio station and adjust the posi-
tion of the FM antenna to achieve the best possi-
ble reception.
Use thumbtacks or something similar to
fix the FM antenna into position.
2
Once the T-4555P is ready for use, you’ll need to
tune into an AM radio station and adjust the posi-
tion of the AM antenna to achieve the best possi-
ble reception.
Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the
T-4555P, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.
Thumbtacks, etc.
If you cannot achieve good reception with the indoor
AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially
available outdoor AM antenna.
Caution: Be careful that you don’t injure your-
self when using thumbtacks.
If you cannot achieve good reception with the indoor
FM antenna, try using a commercially available outdoor
FM antenna instead.

Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna
Connecting an Outdoor AM Antenna
If you cannot achieve good reception with the indoor
FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM
antenna instead.
If good reception cannot be achieved using the AM loop
antenna, an outdoor AM antenna can be used in addition
to the loop antenna, as shown.
Outdoor antenna
Insulated antenna cable
AM loop antenna
Notes:
• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable
results can sometimes be obtained when installed in
an attic or loft.
• For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well
away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line
of sight to your local FM transmitter.
• Outdoor antenna should be located away from possi-
ble noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.
• For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situ-
ated well away from power lines and other high-volt-
age equipment.
Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed hori-
zontally outside, but good results can sometimes be
obtained indoors by mounting horizontally above a win-
dow. Note that the AM loop antenna should be left con-
nected.
Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with
local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.
• Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance
with local regulations to prevent electrical shock haz-
ards.
■ Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter
It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and
TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If
circumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter,
as shown.
