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 (not included)

1 Open the battery door and insert 6 batteries,

type R-14, UM-2 or C-cells, (preferably
alkaline) with the correct polarity as indicated by
the "+" and "–" symbols inside the compartment.

2 Replace the battery door, making sure the

batteries are firmly and correctly in place.The
set is now ready to operate.

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

• 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 try to mix
old batteries with the new ones.

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

Using AC power

WARNING:Always check you have
completely switched off the set, before
you change or disconnect power supply.

1 Check if the power voltage, as shown on

the type plate located on the bottom
of the set, corresponds to your local power

supply. If it does not, consult your dealer or
service center.

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 an 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 .

–

Total number of music files and albums: around
400 (with a typical file name length of 20
characters)

– The length of file names affects the number of

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

Important notes for users in the U.K.

Mains plug

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

1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2. Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 3 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3. Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an
appropriate plug fitted in its place. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a
value of 3 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board
should not be greater than 3 Amp.

Note:The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard should it
be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

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:

• Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked 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 e) or
coloured green (or green and yellow).
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the
sheath of the lead - not simply over the two wires.
