To ensure that this device provides you with long-term satisfaction and enjoyment, please
observe the following instructions.
This device is designed for the playback of audio signals. Any other use is expressly prohibited.
Protect the device and the CDs from rain, moisture (dripping or splashing water), sand and
heat. Do not leave it next to heaters or inside parked cars in the sun.
Make sure there is adequate ventilation when positioning the device. There must be a free
space of at least 10 cm behind the device. Do not place objects on the ventilation slots. Do not
cover the device with newspapers, table cloths, curtains, etc.
Do not place any vessels containing liquids (for example, vases) on the device. Do not place
any naked flames such as candles on the device. Do not insert objects into the CD compartment of the device.
Only use the device in a moderate climate.
Bringing the device in from the cold can cause condensation on the CD lens, which prevents it
from playing. Give the device time to warm up.
The CD part contains self-lubricating bearings, which must not be oiled or greased.
Never open the device casing under any circumstances. No warranty claims are accepted for
damage caused by incorrect handling.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the device is switched off, it can
be damaged by a lightning strike to the mains. Always remove the power plug during a thunder storm.
Do not use any cleaning agents as they may damage the housing. Clean the device with a
clean, dry cloth.
When deciding where to put the device, remember that furniture is often coated with various
types of varnish and plastic. Many of these contain chemicals which can corrode the feet of
the device, leaving marks on the surface of the furniture which can be difficult or impossible
to remove.
Make sure the power plug is freely accessible.
Note:
If malfunctions occur due to static electricity charges or fast transient (burst), reset the
device. To do this, pull out the power plug and connect it again after a few seconds.
General information on laser devices

Therefore, do not throw the product away with normal household waste at the end of its

Additional information for units sold in the UK.
Units sold in the UK are suitable for operation from a 240V ac, 50Hz mains supply.
The range of multi-system receivers is built to work in most European countries. However, the
mains plug and socket system for the UK differs from many European countries.
This appliance has been supplied with a fitted, non-removable, approved converter plug for
use in the UK. This converter plug is fitted with a 5A rated fuse.
In case this appliance is supplied with a moulded 2-pin Euro plug only, which is unsuitable for
UK operation, this must be cut off and immediately disposed of. An approved 13A, 3-pin UK
plug should then be fitted by a qualified electrician.
Note:
The severed Euro plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be
inserted into a socket elsewhere.
If a non-rewireable 3-pin plug or a rewireable 13A (BS1363) 3-pin plug is used, it must be
fitted with a 5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362 fuse. If any other type of plug is used it must
be protected by a 5A fuse either in the plug, or at the distribution board. If this type of plug
becomes defective, ensure that the fuse is removed before disposal, to eliminate potential
shock hazard.
If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct type and rating
(5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362) must be used and the fuse cover must be refitted. If the
fuse cover is lost or damaged, the lead and plug must not be used until a replacement is
obtained. Replacement fuse covers should be obtained from your dealer.
Important:
The wires in the mains lead are colour coded in accordance with the following code:
BLUE – NEUTRAL
BROWN – LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the
coloured marking identifying terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter “N” or coloured
black.
Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with the letter “L” or coloured red.
In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal marked with the letter
“E”, earth symbol “
z”, coloured green, or green & yellow.
Replacement mains lead sets can be obtained from your local dealer, or by contacting Grundig Consumer Relations (01788 570088)
