HANDLING CHIP COMPONENTS

All ICs and many other semiconductors are susceptible to electrostatic discharges (ESD). Careless handling during repair can reduce life drastically. When repairing, make sure that you are connected with the same potential as the mass of the set via a wristband with resistance. Keep components and tools at this potential.

f ATTENTION

Tous les IC et beaucoup d´autres semi-conducteurs sont sensibles aux décharges statiques (ESD). Leur longévite pourrait être considérablement écourtée par le fait qu´aucune précaution nést prise à leur manipulation. Lors de réparations, s´assurer de bien être relié au même potentiel que la masse de l´appareil et enfileer le bracelet serti d´une résistance de sécurité. Veiller à ce que les composants ainsi que les outils que l´on utilise soient également à ce potentiel.

d WARNUNG

Alle ICs und viele andere Halbleiter sind empfindlich gegenüber elektrostatischen Entladungen (ESD). Unsorgfältige Behandlung im Reparaturfall kann die Lebensdauer drastisch reduzieren. Sorgen Sie dafür, daß Sie im Reparaturfall über ein Puls- armband mit Widerstand mit dem Massepotential des Gerätes verbunden sind. Halten Sie Bauteile und Hilfsmittel ebenfalls auf diesem Potential.

ñ WAARSCHUWING

Alle IC´s en vele andere halfgeleiders zijn gevoelig voor electrostatische ontladingen (ESD). Onzorgvuldig behandelen tijdens reparatie kan de levensduur drastisch doen vermindern. Zorg ervoor dat u tijdens reparatie via een polsband met weerstand verbonden bent met hetzelfde potentiaal als de massa van het apparaat. Houd componenten en hulpmiddelen ook op ditzelfde potentiaal.

i AVVERTIMENTO

Tutti IC e parecchi semi-conduttori sono sensibili alle scariche statiche (ESD). La loro longevità potrebbe essere fortemente ridatta in caso di non osservazione della più grande cauzione alla loro manipolazione. Durante le riparationi occorre quindi essere collegato allo stesso potenziale che quello della massa delápparecchio tramite un braccialetto a resistenza. Assicurarsi che i componenti e anche gli utensili con quali si lavora siano anche a questo potenziale.

Safety regulations require that the set be restored to its original condition and that parts which are identical with those specified be used. Safety components are marked by the symbol

Le norme di sicurezza estigono che l´apparecchio venga rimesso nelle condizioni originali e che siano utilizzati i pezzi di ricambiago identici a quelli specificati. Componenty di sicurezza sono marcati con

Veiligheidsbepalingen vereisen, dat het apparaat in zijn oorspronkeliijke toestand wordt teruggebracht en dat onderdelen, identiek aan de gespecificeerde, worden toegepast. De Veiligheidsonderdelen zijn aangeduid met het symbool

s Varning !

Osynlig laserstrålning när apparaten är öppnad och spärren är urkopplad. Betrakta ej strålen.

∂ Advarsel !

Usynlig laserstråling ved åbning når sikkerhedsafbrydere er ude af funktion. Undgå udsaettelse for stråling.

SAFETY

Bei jeder Reparatur sind die geltenden Sicherheitsvorschriften zu beachten. Der Originalzustand des Gerätes darf nicht verändert werden. Für Reparaturen sind Original- ersatzteile zu verwenden. Sicherheitsbauteile sind durch das Symbol markiert.

Les normes de sécurité exigent que l`appareil soit remis à l`état d`origine et que soient utilisées les pièces de rechange identiques à celles spécifiées. Les composants de sécurité sont marqués

CLASS 1

LASER PRODUCT

DANGER: Invisible laser radiation when open.

After servicing and before returning the set to customer perform a leakage current measurement test from all  exposed metal parts to earth ground, to assure no shock hazard exists. The leakage current must not exceed 0.5mA.

AVOID DIRECT EXPOSURE TO BEAM.

IMPORTANT!

For best CD/MP3-CD/VCD playback, please plug in your set to an AC power supply where

convenient.

If operated in DC mode, see below approximate playtime. (Playtime is also varied from

different brand batteries) :

The CD part of this system also serves as a Video CD player if you connect it to your TV

set.

Before viewing the Video CD, ensure that the set is switched to corresponding PAL or

NTSC system of your TV set (exception Multi-system TV).

Whenever convenient, use the mains supply if you want to conserve battery life. The battery supply

will be switched off when the set is connected to the mains.

Make sure you remove the plug from the

set and wall outlet before inserting batteries.

Batteries

1. Open the battery compartment and insert six batteries, type

R20, UM1 or D-cells, (preferably alkaline) with the correct

polarity as indicated by the "

+" and "-" symbols inside the

compartment.

Remote control

Open the battery compartment and insert two batteries,

type AAA, R03 or UM4 (preferably alkaline).

2. Replace the compartment door, making sure the batteries are

firmly and correctly in place.

3. Remove the batteries if they are exhausted or if they will not be

used for a long period.

– The incorrect use of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage

and will corrode the compartment or cause the batteries to

burst. Therefore:

– Do not mix battery types, e.g. alkaline with zinc carbonate.

– When inserting new batteries, replace all at the same time.

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

Notes :

–The battery supply is switched off when the set is connected to the mains.

TV screen is disabled during CD / MP3-CD playing if your AZ5155 is battery

powered.

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

Environmental information

All unnecessary packaging material has been omitted. We have done our utmost to make the

packaging easily separable into three mono materials: cardboard, polystyrene and plastic.

Your set consists of materials which can be recycled if disassembled by a specialized

company. Please observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of packaging

materials, exhausted batteries and old equipment.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

GENERAL OPERATION

1. Check if the mains voltage as shown on the type plate (on the

bottom of the set) corresponds to your local mains voltage.

Select 110 or 220V by the selector (for some version only).

2. If your set is equipped with a voltage selector, adjust the

selector so that it matches with the local mains.

3. Connect the mains lead to the AC MAINS

~ socket and the

wall socket.

™ The set is now ready for use.

4. To switch off the mains supply completely, pull the mains plug out of the wall socket.

™ Disconnect the mains lead when you change over to battery supply, or to protect the set

during heavy thunderstorms.

The type plate is located on the bottom of the set.

1. To switch on the set, adjust the source selector.

2. Adjust the sound using the VOLUME, DYNAMIC BASS

BOOST and INCREDIBLE SURROUND control buttons.

3 To switch off the set, adjust the source selector to the

TAPE/OFF position, with the cassette keys released.

1 Set the source selector to FM or MW.

2. Adjust the sound using the VOLUME, DYNAMIC BASS BOOST

and INCREDIBLE SURROUND control buttons.

3. Tune to a radio station using the TUNING knob.

– For FM, pull out the telescopic aerial. To improve FM-reception,

incline and turn the aerial. Reduce its length if the FM-signal is

too strong (very close to a transmitter).

– For MW, the set is provided with a built-in aerial, so the

telescopic aerial is not needed. Direct the aerial by turning

the whole set.

4. To switch off, set the source selector to the TAPE/OFF

position (with the cassette keys released).
