Special features of your hi-fi system
Your hi-fi system provides access to numerous Internet radio stations
via a router via either LAN cable or WLAN. For Internet operation
a DSL connection and DSL flat rate are recommended.
Titles archived on a PC or hard drive (NAS – Network Attached
Storage) can be played on the hi-fi system using a UPnP server via
LAN or WLAN (audio streaming).
Data formats such as MP3, WMA and CDDA can be played back
using the CD drive.
The MP3 and WMA data formats can also be played back via the
USB input using a memory stick or an MP3 player.

Please note the following instructions when setting up the system:
The hi-fi system is designed for the playback of audio signals. Any
other use is expressly prohibited.
If you want to set up the hi-fi system on wall shelves or in cupboards,
please ensure that it is adequately ventilated. There must be at least
10 cm of space at the side, above and behind the hi-fi system. The
ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings with items such as newspapers, table cloths, curtains, etc.
When setting up the hi-fi, remember that furniture is often coated with
various types of varnish and plastic, which often contain chemical
additives. These additives may cause corrosion to the feet of the unit.
This may leave stains on the surface of the furniture which can be
difficult or impossible to remove.
If the hi-fi system is exposed to sudden changes in temperature, for
example when taken from the cold into a warm room, wait at least
two hours before using it.
The hi-fi system is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it outdoors, make sure it is protected from moisture such as dripping or
splashing water.
Only use the device in a moderate climate.
Do not place the hi-fi system close to heating units or in direct sunlight,
as this will impair cooling.
The hi-fi sytem shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and
that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on
the device.
Do not insert any foreign objects in the CD compartment. Do not
place any objects such as burning candles on the hi-fi system.
Do not open the hi-fi system casing under any circumstances.
Warranty claims are excluded for damage resulting from improper
handling.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the hi-fi
system is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the
mains or the antenna cable. Always disconnect the mains and
antenna plugs during a storm and, if necessary, the LAN plug.
Note:
Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched
on. Switch off the other devices as well before connecting them.
Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have connected
the external devices.
Make sure the power plug is freely accessible.
SET-UP AND SAFETY
------------------------------------------------------------

ENGLISH
Setting up the hi-fi system
The hi-fi system is delivered with a stand. This makes the hi-fi system
easy to place on tables, chests or shelves. If you want to put it somewhere else you can remove the stand.
The hi-fi system can be mounted on a raised stand (approx. 80 cm
high) which is not included in delivery. Ask your specialist dealer
about the stand.
Wall mounting
A wall bracket is part of delivery, and can be used to fix the hi-fi
system to the wall.
Please ensure that a mains socket is present at the installation
location.
1 Release the four screws (A) in the bracket (on the back of the
hi-fi system) and remove the hi-fi system’s stand.
2 Screw the device part (B) of the wall bracket with the four
supplied round head screws (
C) exactly (see four threaded holes)
to the back of the hi-fi system. All four screws must be used.
3 Screw the wall part (D) of the wall bracket firmly into the wall
plugs into the drill holes using the four screws supplied. Make
absolutely sure the wall is in a suitable condition. The screws and
wall plugs supplied are suitable for using in stone and concrete
walls. Use suitable screws and wall plugs for any other types of
wall.
4 Insert the hi-fi system with the hooks of the device part (B) of the
wall bracket into the openings of the wall part (D) of the wall
bracket and allow to latch in place.

Connecting the antenna
1 Plug the roof antenna cable into the antenna socket »FM
ANTENNA (75Ω)
« on the hi-fi.
Note:
If no roof antenna is available, use the auxiliary antenna supplied. When suitably positioned, this antenna provides reasonably good reception of local FM (VHF) channels. Do not shorten
the auxiliary antenna.
Connecting the power cord
Note:
Check that the mains voltage on the type plate (on the back of
the hi-fi system) corresponds to your local mains supply.
The only way to disconnect the hi-fi system from the mains supply
is to pull out the plug.
1 Insert the supplied power cord into the »AC ~« socket on the hi-fi.
2 Plug the power cord into the wall socket.
Connecting an MP3 player or a USB memory stick
Note:
The hi-fi system must be switched off while the USB connection is
being made. If it is not switched off, data can be lost.
1 Connect the USB interface of the MP3 player to the »USB«
socket of the hi-fi system with a standard USB cable.
or
insert the USB plug of the USB memory stick in the USB interface
»
USB« of the hi-fi system.

If your hi-fi system no longer reacts properly to remote control
commands, the batteries may be flat. Always remove used batteries. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused
by leaking batteries.
Batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine,
fire or the like.
Environmental note:
Batteries, including those which do not contain heavy metal,
should not be disposed of with household waste. Always dispose

Automatic station search for FM radio stations
After connecting the hi-fi system to the mains power for the first time,
the automatic station search begins. It searches for radio stations and
saves them (up to max. 40 stations). Afterwards you can save the
radio stations to the preset positions of your choice.
1 Switch on the hi-fi system by pressing »ON OFF«.
– Display: the preset (CH) and the frequency in rapid run-through.
– The search has started. At the end of the search, the demo
mode is started automatically. This shows you the functions of
the Ovation 2i. The demo mode can be interrupted with »
ON
OFF
«.
Notes:
The automatic station search can be interrupted with »ON OFF«.
It will be started again the next time the system is switched on.
You can repeat the automatic station search at any time by calling
up the main menu with »
i« and selecting »Setup« with »S«.
In the setup menu select »Auto Tuning System« with
»
S« and confirm with »9«. Confirm the »Start« function
with »
9«. The search started and previously stored stations are
deleted.
Some RDS stations transmit an RDS time signal. If the selected
RDS station transmits time information, the time is updated
automatically, if you have set »CT« to »ON«. This takes about
five minutes.
