FCC Information
FCC Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
In accordance with FCC requirements, changes or modifications not expressly approved by Thomson multimedia Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate this
product.
This device generates and uses radio frequency (RF)
energy, and if not installed and used properly, this
equipment may cause interference to radio and television reception.
If this equipment does cause interference to radio or
television reception (which you can determine by
unplugging the unit), try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
• Re-orient the receiving antenna (that is, the antenna
for the radio or television that is "receiving" the interference).
• Move the unit away from the equipment that is
receiving interference.
• Plug the unit into a different wall outlet so that the
unit and the equipment receiving interference are on
different branch circuits.
If these measures do not eliminate the interference,
please consult your dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Also, the
Federal Communications Commission has prepared a
helpful booklet, "How To Identify and Resolve Radio TV
Interference Problems." This booklet is available from
the U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC
20402. Please specify stock number 004-000-00345-4
when ordering copies.
This product complies with DHHS Rules 21 CFR

For Your Safety
The AC power plug is polarized
(one blade is wider than the
other) and only fits into AC power
outlets one way. If the plug won’t
go into the outlet completely, turn
the plug over and try to insert it
the other way. If it still won’t fit, contact a qualified
electrician to change the outlet, or use a different one.
Do not attempt to bypass this safety feature.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH
WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY
INSERT.

Getting Started
Unpacking the system:
You should have the following:
• one main unit (with 2 main speakers);
• one remote control;
• one AM loop antenna;
• one user’s guide;
• one safety leaflet.
• Owner and registration Card
Back View
1. FM Pigtail Antenna
2. AM Loop Antenna Connector
3. Main Speaker Jacks
Using the FM and AM Antennas
Before you use your audio system, you’ll want to make
sure both the FM and AM antennas are positioned properly. Uncoil the FM antenna at the back of the unit, making sure it is fully extended (you may even want to tape it
to the wall behind the unit if possible. The higher the
better.) You’ll also need to connect the AM antenna loop
to the back of the unit if you listen to AM stations.
Rotate the AM loop antenna for better reception.
Connecting the Speakers
Match the red wire (on the left speaker) to red terminal
for the left speaker (L) on the back of the unit and the
black wire (on the left speaker ) to the black terminal for
left speaker (L). Follow the same procedure to connect
the right (R) speaker.
