Power Supply

Whenever convenient, use the power supply
cord if you want to conserve battery life.
Make sure you remove the plug from the set
and wall outlet before inserting batteries.

Batteries
Main set (See 1)

• Insert 6 batteries, type R-14, UM2 or C-
cells (not included, preferably alkaline) with

the correct polarity.

Remote control

Important!

• Before using the remote control, remove
the insulation plastic tab as shown
in figure !.

• If the remote control does not function
correctly or the operating range is
reduced, replace the battery with a new
(CR2025) type battery

1 Press and hold the latch (A) in the direction

as shown in figure !.

2 Simultaneously, pull the batter y tray (B) out.

3 Replace a new battery, and fully inser t the

battery tray back to the original position.

• Incorrect use of batteries can cause elec­trolyte leakage and will corrode the compart­ment or cause the batteries to burst:

• Do not mix battery types: e.g. alkaline with
carbon zinc. Only use batteries of the same
type for the set.

• When inserting new batteries, do not tr y to
mix old batteries with the new ones.

• Remove the batteries if the set is not to be
used for a long time.

Batteries contain chemical substances, so
they should be disposed of properly.

power cord from the wall socket.

4 Install the unit near the AC outlet and where

the AC power plug can be easily reached.

• Disconnect the power cord from the wall
socket to protect your set during heavy thun­derstorms. Children could seriously injure

About MP3

The music compression technology MP3
(MPEG1 Audio Layer 3) significantly reduce
the digital data of an audio CD while
maintaining CD quality sound.

• Getting MP3 files: you can either download
legal music files from the internet to your
computer hard disc, or create such files by
converting audio CD files in your computer
through appropriate encoder software.
(128kbps bit rate or higher is recommended
for MP3 files.)

• Creating a MP3 CD: burn the music files
from your computer hard disc on a CDR or
CDRW using your CD burner.

Helpful hints:

– Make sure that the file names of the MP3 files

end with .mp3 or .wma.

– Number of albums: maximum 500

– Number of tracks: maximum 1000

– The length of file names affects the number of

tracks for playback.With shorter file names,
more files can be burned on a disc.

Troubleshooting

If a fault occurs, first check the points listed below before taking the set for repair.
If you are unable to remedy a problem by following these hints, consult your dealer or service centre.

WARNING: Do not open the set as there is a risk of electric shock. Under no cir-

cumstances should you try to repair the set yourself, as this will invali­date the guarantee.

Hearing Safety

Listen at a moderate volume.

• Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing. This product can produce sounds in
decibel ranges that may cause hearing loss for a normal person, even for exposure less than a
minute. The higher decibel ranges are offered for those that may have already experienced some
hearing loss.

• Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of
sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to
your hearing. To guard against this, set your volume to a safe level before your hearing adapts and
leave it there.

To establish a safe volume level:

• Set your volume control at a low setting.

• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without distor tion.

Listen for reasonable periods of time:

• Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally "safe" levels, can also cause hearing loss.
