LISTENING

For A Lifetime

Want You

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. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

Decibel

Level

30 Quiet library

Example

, soft whispers 40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic 50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office 60

Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine 70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant 80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock at two feet

THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE:

100

Garbage truck, chain saw

, pneumatic drill 120 Rock band concert in front of speakers, thunderclap 140 Gunshot blast, jet engine 180

To protect your product from a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

5. OVERLOADING

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a

isk of fire or electric shock.

6. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY

ay touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in

ire or electric shock. Never spill or spray any type of liquid on the product.

17. OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING

f an outside antenna is connected to the product, be sure the antenna

ystem is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage

s surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electric

ode, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with respect to proper

C grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-

n wire to an antenna discharge product, size of grounding conductors,

ocation of antenna discharge product, connection to grounding

l electrodes and requirements for grounding electrodes.

PREPARATION FOR USE

AC Plug

AC Outlet

AC OPERATION

Unwind the AC power cord and extend it to its full length. Insert the AC power cord into any convenient 120V 60Hz household outlet.

Please note that this unit is equipped with a polarized AC plug which has one blade wider than the other. This is a safety feature to reduce the likelihood of electric shock. This polarized AC plug will only fit in a polarized AC outlet. If you find that you cannot insert this plug into your outlet, you may have an obsolete non-polarized outlet. Please do not try to defeat this safety feature by using a non-polarized adapter or by filing the wider blade to make it fit into your outlet. If this plug does not fit into your outlet, you should contact a qualified licensed electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. NOTE: If there is a power failure or the AC cord is disconnected for a short period time, the clock will stop and the time will be kept. When the power is resumed or the AC cord is connected again, the clock time will continue running. However, you need to adjust to clock again. If the power failure or the AC cord is disconnected for several minutes, the clock will be reset (“12:00” will appear in the display) and you will need to set the clock again.

SPEAKER CONNECTION

1. Place the speakers in convenient locations on either side of the unit. Usually a distance of ﬁve to eight feet between speakers provides the best stereo effect, but this may vary depending on the size and acoustics of the room.

2. Locate the Speaker Terminals on the rear of the unit and connect the dashed black wires to the red (+) terminals and connect the solid black wires to the black (–) terminals.

3. To connect the speakers, press and hold the terminal down, insert the speaker wire and release.

4. Pull lightly on the connection to make sure it is secure.

CAUTION: Only connect the speakers which are supplied with the unit. The use of any other or additional speakers may cause damage to the unit. Never operate the unit without the speakers connected.

SPEAKER CONNECTION

REMOTE SENSOR

To operate the unit with the remote control, point the remote at the remote sensor on the front of the main unit and press the appropriate button.

MP3/WMA FAQs–Frequently Asked Questions Please read before playing an MP3/WMA disc.

Does the unit support packet write CD-RW?

Yes, it can. You can add or delete MP3/WMA files without reformatting. It appears like a PC hard drive.

Can the unit read regular music CDs?

Yes, it can. However you can not mix MP3/WMAs and WAV files on the same CD. If you do this, the unit will play only the MP3/WMA files.

Can I use the MP3/WMA extension for non-audio data files?

No, this may result in serious malfunction and harmful noise interference.

Can I mix MP3/WMA files with other file types on the CDR?

Yes, but this unit will ignore those files and read only the MP3/WMA files on the CDR.

Does the unit support multi-session CDRs?

If the MP3/WMA disc is not finalized, you can burn a new group of MP3 files until the CD is full.

Does the unit support subdirectories (subfolders)?

Yes, the unit can read MP3/WMA files from subfolders.

SINGLE SESSION

The chart below is an example of a Windows Explorer display that will appear on your computer monitor for a single session MP3/WMA CD Rom with directories/albums. Check the added notes to help you understand the MP3/WMA CD unit display and the playback sequence of directories/albums and tracks on a single session MP3/WMA CD.

MULTI SESSION

The computer user does not need to finalize the CDR disc as music is burned on the CD. Because of this, the music can be downloaded at different times until the whole CD is full.

NOTES:

• The arrow pathway shows the sequence of

MP3/WMA directory and file playback.

• This example has a total of seven MP3/WMA

directories.

• Based on this layout, the first file will be

“Blur01.wma” and the last file will be “Twain15.mp3”.

• “Skipped” denotes a directory which contains

non-audio files only, e.g. jpg, wav, etc. These cannot be detected nor played on this unit. When an album contains mixed format files, the non-MP3/WMA files will be skipped.
