DEAR JENSEN® CUSTOMER
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your
musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your
equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level.
One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion and,
most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of
sound. So what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against
this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
Start your volume control at a low setting.
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without
distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all,
we want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For a Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since
hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and
the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid
prolonged exposure to excessive noise.

PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE!!
This system 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.

GETTING STARTED
SPEAKER CONNECTION
1. Insert the speaker cable ends (exposed wires) into the terminals located on the back
of the main unit by pushing down the lever of the left speaker terminal and then the
right speaker terminal
2. Connect the left speaker to the left speaker terminals with the red wire to L+ and the
black wire to L -.
3. Connect the right speaker to the right speaker terminals with the red wire to R+ and
the black wire to R -.
NOTE:
Make sure that the power is turned off when connecting or disconnecting the speakers.
Make sure that the speakers are connected to the correct terminals.
CONNECTING THE AC POWER CORD
After connecting the speakers unwind the AC power cord fully and connect it to any convenient
household 120V~ 60Hz AC outlet
NOTE:
The product is designed to operate on normal 120V~ 60Hz AC
only. Connecting this system to any other power supply could
result in damage to the unit which is not covered by your
warranty. You will noted 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 filling
the wide blade to make it fit into your outlet. If this plug will not fit into your outlet, you probably
have an outdated non-polarized AC outlet. You should have your outlet changed by a qualified
licensed electrician.
