INSTALLATION

• Unpack all parts and remove protective
material.

• Do not connect the unit to the mains

before checking the mains voltage and

before all other connections have been

made.

• In the CD tray, there are two red transit

protection clamps, E. These clamps
serve to secure the mechanism of the
CD player to protect it during transport.

Remove the red transit protection
ciamps at the back of the unit and store

them properly in the recesses, F. Should
you wish to transport the unit again, the
mechanism must be secured once more
in order to prevent damages. (See Fig.

3)

• Do not cover any vents and make sure
that there is a space of several centime

tres around the unit for ventilation.

SUPPLY______________________________

• Check that the mains voltage as shown
on the type plate corresponds to your lo
cal mains supply. If it does not, consult
your dealer or service organisation.

• Insert the mains lead connector into the

MAINS input A (See Fig. 2) and the
mains plug into the wall socket. The
mains supply is now connected.

• To disconnect the set from the mains,
withdraw the mains plug from the wall
socket.

CONNECTIONS (Fig. 2)

• Connect the LINE OUT sockets B of the
CD player to the CD/LINE IN sockets of
your amplifier or receiver.

A) Power cord. Do not connect the unit to

the power without having checked
whether the voltage given on the type
plate corresponds with the local AC outlet
voltage.

B) CD out: two cinch plugs for high quality

Compact Disc playback through your
amplifier, receiver etc.

C) REMOTE IN socket: to connect the unit to

the remote control system of other
equipment.

D) Voltage selector (not all versions). If your

version has this selector, check that the
setting corresponds with your local mains
voltage. The type plate is located on the
rear of the unit.

AC voltage indication is next to voltage
selector on the bottom of the unit.

Important notes for users in the U.K.:

MainsPlug

This apparatus is fitted with an approved
moulded 13 Amp plug.
To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed
as follows:

• Remove fuse cover and fuse.

• Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362
5 A, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

• Refitthefusecover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket
outlets, it should be cutoff and an appropriate
plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should
have a value of 5 A. if a plug without a fuse is
used, the fuseatthe distribution board should
not be greater than 5 A.

Note;

The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a
possible shock hazard should it be inserted
into a 13 A socket elsewhere.

Howto connectaplug

The wires in the mains lead are coloured with
the following code: blue = neutral (N), brown
= live. (L)
As these colours may not correspond with the
colour markings identifying the terminals in
your plug, proceed as follows:

• Connectthebluewiretotheterminalmarked
N or coloured black.

• Connect the brown wire to the terminal
marked L or coloured red.

• Do not connect either wire to the earth
terminal in the plug, marked E (or 4-) or
coloured green (or green and yellow).

Before replacing the plug cover, make certain
that the cord grip is clamped overthe sheath of
the lead - not simply over the two wires.
