Useful Advice
Do not use your system immediately after
transporting it from a cold place to a warm
place, as condensation may cause the system to
malfunction. If moisture forms inside this
system, it may not operate properly. To correct
the problem, turn off the power and wait about
30 minutes for moisture to evaporate
This system is fitted with a laser. To avoid
accidents, it is to be opened by qualified
technicians only.
Never leave the tray open as dust could cover
the laser lens and/or the tray could be bumped
into accidentally
Do not place the system near wet areas such as
bathrooms and pool side. Avoid storing the
system at humid places or near abnormally
heated areas.
Power is continuously supplied to the system. To
disconnect power completely, unplug the power
cord from the power outlet.
Battery Power
You can insert 8 D-sized alkaline batteries (not
supplied) and you can take your stereo just
about anywhere. Open the battery
compartment door on the back of the unit by
pressing down on the two tabs and pulling out
the cover. Insert batteries in the battery
compartment.(See diagram) Note that the AC
line cord must be unplugged from the jack on
the back of the unit to operate on batteries. 2
AA-sized batteries (not supplied) are needed to
keep radio station memory.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to remove batteries when
storing the set for more than 30 days. Leaky
batteries can badly damage the system. Always
return tape operatioin buttons to their off
position before storing. This will relieve pressure
on certain parts in the tape recorder that might
deform after long periods of time. Be sure to
dispose of leaky, weak or dead batteries
properly according to federal, state, and local
regulations.
EN
Headset Safety
Do not play your headset at a high
volume. Hearing experts advise against
continuous extended play. If you experience a
ringing in your ears, reduce volume or
discontinue use. You should use extreme caution
or temporarily discontinue use in potentially
hazardous situations. Even if your headset is an
open-air type designed to let you hear outside
sounds, don’t turn up the volume so high that
you can’t hear what’s around you.
