2 Connect the red wire to the red terminal (the small
hole under the red plastic tab) and the black wire to
the black terminal.
3To connect the wires, just push down on the red/black
plastic tab and insert the wire in the hole below it.
When you release the tab, it will be gripped tight.
4Repeat the above with the left hand speaker.
When you have fi nished there should be one wire
going into each terminal.
Place the speakers as far apart as
possible for the best sound quality.

Connecting another speaker, such as a sub woofer
A sub woofer is the name for a speaker which improves the low
frequency (bass sounds) of music which you are playing. This gives a
richer and deeper sound to your music. Use a standard RCA cable from
the sub woofer to the SUB WOOFER OUTPUT socket on the right hand
side of the unit. Passive sub woofers which do not have their own power
source will not work with this System.
Connecting headphones
There is a headphone socket on the right hand side of the unit.
Wall fi xing
The System is designed to be either free-standing on a table or shelf, or
fi xed to a wall. The templates supplied with the System show the spacings
for the wall fi xing screws (supplied). Don’t forget to use a spirit level when
using the templates, to make sure you fi t the System perfectly horizontal.

Safety advice
Please don’t use the System in a damp environment such as a bathroom.
Please don’t expose the System to dripping or splashing liquids.
Please switch off and withdraw the mains plug before making or
changing connections.
Please consult the retailer where you purchased the System, if you are in
doubt about the installation or operation.
Please don’t remove any fi xed covers as this may expose dangerous
voltages.
Please don’t continue to use the System if you think it may not be
working normally, or if it is damaged in any way. Switch off, remove the
mains plug and consult your dealer.

Troubleshooting
MP3 fi les can be saved at different compression levels. 128 Mbs
(megabits per second) is the standard level. Although saving tracks with
more compression will make the fi les smaller, it may case problems when
playing. Always check that your fi les are saved at 128 Mbs or higher.
The System has an automatic electronic cut out, which is designed to
avoid damage to the System. The effect of this is that the System will
‘freeze’ and stop working. If this happens, simply turn the unit off, so that
the blue lights go out in the display, and turn it on again.
ESP
The Electronic Shock Protection function prevents the CD ‘skipping’ if the
System is accidentally knocked during play. When a CD is fi rst played,
ESP will fl ash for several seconds indicating that the anti-skip memory is
being fi lled up. When ESP stops fl ashing, the memory is full. This feature
works in the background automatically and will not affect your normal use
of the System.
Electrostatic discharge
In case of malfunction due to electrostatic discharge just reset the micro
(reconnection of power may be required) to resume normal
system
operation.

MP3 fi les
MP3 (an abbreviation of MPEG 2, LAYER 3) is a digital fi le format
for music. You can download MP3 songs from many web sites.
However, there are copyright regulations which have to be observed.
MP3 songs are much smaller in memory size than normal songs on CD’s.
That is because they are compressed. The process of compression loses
some of the sound quality of the song, but does enable more recording
time on a standard CD than the normal 70-80 minutes. The fi le size (in
kilobytes) which a song can be reduced to depends on the length of
the original track and the ‘compression rate’. Compression rates are
described in kbps (kilobytes per second).
The most common compression rates used are 64kbps, 96kbps,
128kbps (this is the normal MP3 rate), 160kbps and 192kbps.
The higher the number, the better the quality. Based on 128kbps you
should be able to store 250-300 minutes of recording on a CD-R. MP3
songs can be recorded with some text information (called ID3 tags) as
part of the same fi le. The text usually includes the song title and artists
name. There are two ways to make an MP3 CD.
Download MP3 songs from the internet and save them on a CD-R.
Convert your existing music CD’s using a piece of software on your USB
drive, called a CD ripper. CD rippers can usually be found as freeware
or shareware on the internet.
Connecting a turntable, keyboard or other device
The System has two sockets on its side, labelled AUX LINE IN, Right and
Left. The AUX sockets should be used if you want to connect a piece of
auxiliary equipment to the System. For instance you may want to connect
a turntable, for playing vinyl records, or a piano keyboard. Use a standard
RCA cable from the other device to the AUX sockets and select AUX,
using the FUNCTION button.

c Press the button once at a time to change the frequency a small

You can listen to the radio on either FM or MW frequencies. The FM
frequency requires the aerial to be used. It should be unwound and

Sometimes one way produces much better results than the other.
You can also try moving the system around the room, or from room to
room, because FM reception varies greatly over short distances.
Hissing or fading while listening to FM usually indicates a weak signal.
The MW aerial is in a fi xed position inside the player, so you may have to
rotate or reposition it slightly to achieve the best reception. You can fi nd
radio stations in two ways, either by ‘manual tuning’ or ‘scanning’.

If your music is well organised
If you’ve downloaded MP3 tracks from a music download site on the
internet they will usually have ID3 tags attached. An ID3 tag is a small
piece of digital code, contained within the music track which enables
you to see the track’s name when you play it. The options described
in this section assume that your MP3 tracks have ID3 tags.
When you’ve saved MP3 tracks on a CD using your computer, you
can sort them into folders, just like you do with other types of fi le.
You’ll probably decide to give a folder the same name as the album
from which the tracks are saved. Alternatively you could name your
folders by music type such as Jazz or Rock. If you’ve created an
organised structure of folders, each containing several music tracks,
some of this information will show in the display on your System.
