Before you start…
Placement
Allow enough space above the BeoSound 1 to
enable the built-in aerial to extend and the CD
compartment to raise.
Make sure that the BeoSound 1 is always
placed on a firm, stable surface.
The BeoSound 1 is designed for indoor use in
dry, domestic environments only, and for use
within a temperature range of 10–40°C
(50–105°F).
If you connect external sources to the
BeoSound 1, do not switch on the mains until
you have made all connections.
Connections
The socket panel is located underneath the
BeoSound 1. The socket panel contains mains,
aerial and AUX sockets.
Auxiliary equipment…
Use the AUX socket to connect auxiliary
equipment, e.g. an audio tape recorder or a
mini disc player. Please consult a Bang &
Olufsen retailer for details.
If a recorder is connected to your BeoSound 1,
you can make recordings from the radio and
CD player. Please refer to the user’s guide
supplied with the recorder.
However, if you operate the BeoSound 1
while such a recording is in progress, the
recording will be disrupted.
• The AUX socket is activated by pressing
ss
and
tt
simultaneously.
External aerial…
If you wish to connect an external aerial to
BeoSound 1, move the built-in aerial plug to
the position marked (A), and connect the
external one to the socket instead.
Maintenance
Do not use alcohol or other solvents to clean any
part of the BeoSound 1. We do not recommend
using special cleaning CDs in the BeoSound 1.
Before you clean the BeoSound 1, we
recommend that you disconnect it from the
mains to prevent inadvertent operation.
Clean dusty surfaces using a dry, soft cloth.
If necessary remove grease stains or persistent
dirt with a lint-free, firmly wrung cloth,
dipped in a solution of water containing only
a few drops of mild detergent, such as
washing–up liquid.
The front may also be cleaned with a soft
brush mounted on a vacuum cleaner set to
the lowest level.
