STEREO HEADPHONE JACK

disconnects the Stereo Concertmate's speakers so that you may enjoy
listening privately, without disturbing others.

ANTENNAS

The Stereo Concertmate is equipped with a built-in ferrite core AM antenna,
and line cord FM antenna.  For best FM reception be sure that the AC line
cord is completely extended, not coiled.

When a better antenna is desired for reception of weak or distant FM
stations, remove the line cord antenna clamp from the FM ANT terminal and
connect an FM antenna to the terminals.

CAUTION:  Be certain that the speakers are connected to your Stereo
          Concertmate before turning power on.

          Keep the set away from excessive vibration, heat, dust or
          humidity.

          Clean the cabinet using a soft cloth, slightly moistened with
          water or a mild soap solution.  Do not use harsh solvents.
