However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that

PREPARATION FOR USE

UNPACKING AND SET-UP

• Carefully remove the unit from the carton and remove all packing material from

the unit.

• Remove any labels or stickers which may be on the front or top of the set, but

do not remove any labels from the back or bottom.

• We suggest that you retain the original carton and packing materials in case it

ever becomes necessary to return your unit for service. This is the only sure

way to protect the unit from damage in transit.

• Remove any small strips of tape that may have been used to prevent the CD

door from opening in transit.

• Unwind the lead wire FM antenna on the back of the unit and extend it to its full

length.

• The unit is shipped with a “dummy CD” display card in the CD player. This

“dummy CD” card must be removed before you can use the CD player. Refer to the “PLAYING COMPACT DISCS” instructions on Page 12.

POWER SOURCE

This system is designed to operate on 120V 60Hz AC house current . Connecting

this system to any other power supply could result in damage to the unit which is

not covered by your warranty.You will note that this system is equipped with a

polarized AC power plug having one

blade wider than the other. This is a

safety feature. If this plug does not

fit into your existing AC outlet, do

not try to defeat this safety feature

by filing the wide blade to make it fit

into your outlet. If this plug will not

fit into your outlet, you probably have an out-dated non-polarized AC outlet. You

should have your outlet changed by a qualified licensed electrician.

AC Plug

AC Operation

1.) Unwind the AC Power Cord completely.

2.) Insert the plug into any convenient 120V 60Hz AC outlet.

PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE

This model is equipped with non-skid rubber 'feet' to prevent the product from

moving when you operate the controls. These 'feet' are made from non-migrating

rubber material specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your

furniture. However certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives,

or cleaning sprays may cause the rubber 'feet' to soften, and leave marks or a

rubber residue on the furniture. To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly

recommend that you purchase small self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware

stores and home improvement centers everywhere, and apply these pads to the

bottom of the rubber 'feet' before you place the product on fine wooden furniture.

1.) Open the battery compartment cover.

2.) Insert two "AAA" (UM4) batteries (not included)

to match the polarities as indicated inside the

battery compartment.

3.) Close the cover.

NOTE: When the batteries become too weak, the operating distance of the remote controller is greatly reduced and you will need to replace the batteries.

USING THE REMOTE CONTROLLER CORRECTLY

•Point the remote controller at the Remote Sensor.

•The functions of the buttons on the remote control are the same as the corresponding controls on the main unit.

•When there is a strong ambient light source, the performance of the infrared Remote Sensor may be degraded, causing unreliable operation.

•The maximum effective distance for remote control operation is about 15 feet.

BATTERY PRECAUTIONS

Follow these precautions when using batteries in this device:

1. Use only the size and type of batteries specified.

2. Be sure to follow the correct polarity when installing the batteries as indicated in the battery compartment. Reversed batteries may cause damage to the device.

3. Do not mix different types of batteries together (e.g. Alkaline and Carbon-Zinc) or old batteries with fresh ones.

4. If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent damage or injury from possible battery leakage.

5. Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat and rupture. (Follow battery manufacturer’s directions.)
