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.

playback. The anti-shock system will automatically activate when a disc is playing, the

Once anti-skip buffer is full, it will give you approximately 60 seconds of protection
against interruption of sound output. If the player is subjected to shock or rolling for
longer than the buffer memory, some interruption of sound output will occur. This is
normal and to be expected and the sound will resume once the player has stabilized
from the shock or rolling disturbance.
Note: The anti-skip function provides for continuous sound output when the unit is

subjected to shock or vibration. It will not compensate for errors arising from the
use of defective, scratched or dirty discs.

POINTS TO CHECK

next time you turn the FM radio on.

HINTS FOR BEST RECEPTION:

The cord for the earbuds also acts as the antenna for the FM radio. For best FM
reception, unwrap and fully extend the earbud wires to improve the FM reception.

The FM radio scan depends on the signal strength of the broadcasting station, so
weak stations may be skipped. If FM reception is weak, try repositioning the unit near
an open window until you get the best reception.

1. Never wrap the earbuds cord around any animal or person. Special care should

be taken with long wires.

2. Clean the unit with a soft, damp (never wet) cloth. Solvent or detergent should

never be used.

3. Avoid operating your unit under direct sunlight or in hot, humid or dusty places

to reduce the risk of fire or electric shock.

4. Keep your unit away from heating appliances and sources of electrical noise

such as fluorescent lamps or motors.

5. For better Display clarity, avoid operating the unit under direct sunlight or in

strong room illumination.

6. Unplug the unit from the electrical power outlet immediately in case of

malfunction.

7. If drop-outs or interruptions occur in the music

during CD play, or if the CD fails to play at all, its
bottom surface may require cleaning. Before
playing, wipe the disc from the center outwards with
a lint-free soft cleaning cloth.

CAUTION: Never allow any water or other liquids to get inside the unit while cleaning.
