CARE AND SAFETY

______________________________

To ensure that this device provides you with long-term satisfaction and
enjoyment, please observe the following instructions.

This device is designed for the recording and playback of audio signals.
Any other use is expressly prohibited.

Protect the device, the CDs and cassettes 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 insert any foreign bodies in the CD or tape compartment of the
device.

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 and tape units contain self-lubricating bearings, which must not be
oiled or greased.

Never open the device casing under any circumstances. The manufacturer
will not accept any liability for damage resulting from improper 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 mains plug during an electrical storm.

Do not use any cleaning agent, as this may damage the casing. Clean the
device with a clean, moist leather cloth.

Please note when deciding where to put the device that furniture surfaces are
covered by various types of lacquer and plastic, most of which contain che­mical additives. These may cause corrosion to the feet of the device, thus
resulting in stains on the surface of the furniture which can be difficult or
impossible to remove.

This device meets the requirements for a CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT. CLASS 1
LASER PRODUCT means that the laser is designed in such a way as to ensure
that the maximum permissible emission value cannot be exceeded under any
circumstances.
If operating devices or methods other than those specified here are
employed, it may lead to dangerous exposure to emissions.
Invisible laser radiation is emitted if the CD compartment is opened and the
safety locking mechanism is shorted. Do not expose yourself to this
radiation.

Mains operation

Note:

Check that the mains voltage on the type plate (on the bottom of the
device) corresponds to your local mains supply.
If this is not the case, contact your specialist dealer.

1 Insert the mains cable supplied (in the battery compartment) in the

»AC

~

« socket on the back of the radio recorder.

2 Insert the power cord plug into the socket.

Caution:

The only way to disconnect the device from the mains supply is to pull
out the plug.

Battery operation

1 Open the battery compartment by pressing the snap-catch, and remove

the lid.

2 Insert six batteries (6 x 1.5V/Type IEC/LR20/AM1/D size), observing

the polarity marked on the base of the battery compartment.

Note:

Remove the batteries when they are flat or when you know that the
device will not be used for a long period of time.
No liability is accepted for damage resulting from leaking batteries.

The batteries are switched off during mains operation.

Environmental note:

Batteries, including those which contain no heavy metal, may not be
disposed of with household waste. Please dispose of used batteries in an
environmentally sound manner. Find out about the legal regulations
which apply in your area.

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 & yel-

low.

Replacement mains lead sets can be obtained from your local dealer, or by
contacting Grundig Consumer Relations (01788 570088)
Moulded 3-pin lead set, suitable for UK use:

Ref: Leadset UK 8290-991-224

Moulded 2-pin Euro lead set, not suitable for UK use:

Ref: Leadset Euro 8290-991-316

Antennas

1 For FM (VHF) stations extend the telescopic antenna and tilt and turn it

to achieve the best reception.

Note:

If the FM signal is too strong, it is advisable to push in the telescopic
antenna.

In case of poor reception:

If your FM stereo reception is impaired by interference due to insufficient
signal strength, this can sometimes be rectified by setting the
»MONO/ST« switch (on the back of the device) to »MONO«. The
FM station is played in mono.

2 The Radio Recorder has a built-in rod antenna for MW reception. Turn

the radio recorder about its own axis to point the antenna.

Radio reception

1 Switch on the Radio Recorder and set the »TAPE/OFF RADIO CD«

switch to »RADIO«.
– The »ON•« indicator lights up.

2 Select the frequency band (FM, MW) using the band selection switch

»FM . . MW«.

3 Use the »TUNING« knob to tune to a station.

4 Switch off the Radio Recorder by setting the switch to the »TAPE/OFF«

position.
– The »ON

•

« indicator goes out.

logo shown here. Always keep the CD compartment closed to prevent dust
from collecting on the laser optics. Do not attach adhesive labels to CDs.
Keep the surfaces of CDs clean.

When burning CD-R with audio data, various problems may arise which
could lead to interference in playback. This can be caused by faulty software
or hardware settings or by the CD being used. Should such problems arise,

Tape recording

Erase protection

Every new recording overwrites the existing recording on the tape.
You can protect your own tapes against accidental erasure by breaking the
safety tabs on the top of the tape.
Pre-recorded commercial music tapes are already protected against acci­dental erasure.
If you want to record on to a protected tape, cover the opening with
adhesive tape.

Note:

Only use NORMAL-type tapes (IEC I) for recording.
CHROME (IEC II) or METAL (IEC IV) tapes are not suitable. The volume
setting and the position of the Ultra Bass System switch do not affect the
recording level.
