USING YOUR MICRO SYSTEM
Mains connection
1 Check that the speakers are correctly connected.
2 Check that the voltage indicated on the back of
your Micro System corresponds to the voltage of
your mains electricity supply (230Volts AC).
3 Plug the
mains lead
into a wall
socket. The
system is
now in
Standby
mode and
the Standby
button on
the front
panel will
glow red.
4 Press the POWER/STANDBY button on the front
of the Micro System.
5 To switch off your Micro System completely,
press the POWER/STANDBY button and remove
the mains plug from the wall.
Before Use
Speaker Connection
1 Connect one of your speakers to the terminal
marked L on the back of your Micro System,
this will become the left speaker. To connect the
wire into the
designated outlet
simply push down the
gripper clip until an
opening is exposed.
Push the end of the
speaker wire (the bare
wire and not the
plastic covering) into
the opening and
release the gripper clip
to secure the wire firmly in its place.
2 Insert the end of the black and grey speaker
wire into the red outlet marked ‘+’ and the end
of the black speaker wire into the black outlet
marked ‘-’. This speaker is now the left hand
speaker.
3 Connect the other speaker in the same way to
the terminal marked R. This will now be your
right hand speaker.
4
Fit the batteries into the
Remote Control
1 Remove the battery cover by sliding it away
from the body of the remote control.
2 Insert two size AA batteries so that the ‘+’ and
‘-’ marks on the batteries match the ‘+’ and ‘-’
marks inside the unit.
3 Replace the battery cover.
Note: Batteries are not included.

This product was designed and manufactured to
meet strict quality and safety standards. There are,
however, some operation precautions that you
should be aware of:
Laser beam caution. If your CD player is operated
whilst the outer casing is removed, invisible laser
radiation could cause damage to the eye.
Check that the voltage as indicated on the back of
your Micro System corresponds to the voltage of
your mains electrical supply.
The Micro System should never be used with an
extension lead.
To prevent a fire or shock hazard, do not expose the
Micro System to rain, moisture or any form of
naked flame, such as a lit candle.
To avoid electric shock - never immerse in water or
allow water to drip or be splashed onto the Micro
System. Do not use the Micro System in a bathroom
or shower cabinet.
Do not try to open the Micro System itself. Always
refer servicing to a qualified service centre.

SAFETY cont TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Should any solid object or liquid fall on/into the
Micro System unplug it and have it checked by a
qualified service centre only.
A small amount of current continues to flow to the
Micro System when not in use. Press the On/Off
switch to OFF and unplug it from the mains if it is
not to be used for an extended period of time. To
disconnect the mains lead, pull out by the plug itself
- never disconnect by pulling the cord.
The mains lead must be replaced by a qualified
service centre only.
Do not place anything on top or around the Micro
System that will impede ventilation.
During use place the Micro System in a location
with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build up.
The Micro System should have a clearance of at
least 10cm from either side and at the rear with
30cm at the top.
The Micro System is designed for use in moderate
climates. If the Micro System is brought directly
from a cold location to a warm location, or is
placed in a very damp room, moisture may
condense on the lens inside the CD player. Should
this occur, the CD player will not operate. Remove
the CD and leave the Micro System turned on for
about an hour until the moisture evaporates.
