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 Subchapter J. Applicable at the date of manufacture.

Main Connections
AC OUTLET POWER SUPPLY: 120V ~60Hz
NoteNote
Note:
NoteNote
Power is fed to the unit even when it is not functioning. To cut the power supply off, the power cable must be unplugged.
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.
Battery Back-Up
This clock radio is equipped with a memory holding system that can be powered with a 9-volt battery (not included). The power failure protection circuit will not operate unless battery is installed.
When normal household power is interrupted, or AC line cord is unplugged, the back-up battery will power the clock radio to keep track of time and alarm settings programmed into memory. When the battery backup functions, the function of alarm still occurs during the power interruption if remaining battery power is adequate. Normal operation will resume after AC power is restored so you will not have to reset the time or the alarm. With battery back-up, if Wake to Radio or Wake to CD is activated during power interuption, Wake to Tone will operate instead. Wake mode will operate normally again once power is resumed.
When AC power is interrupted (disconnected) for a short period of time, both time and alarm settings will change (unless optional battery is installed). After AC power is restored (reconnected), the Digital Display will blink to indicate that power was interrupted and you should readjust the time and alarm settings.
Caution
Have a Blast- Just Not in Your Eardrums!
Make sure you turn down the volume on the unit before you put on headphones. Increase the volume to the desired level only after headphone are in place.
The descriptions and characteristics in this owner’s manual are for the purpose of general reference only and not as a guarantee. In order to provide you with the highest quality product, we may make changes or modifications without prior notice.

Protection against main power failures:
1. Remove battery compartment door (located on the bottom of the radio) by applying thumb pressure to area indicated on battery door and then lift the door out and off the cabinet.
2. Connect a 9-volt battery connector plug. (6LR61 or NEDA 1604A)
3. Insert battery in the compartment and replace the compartment door.
NOTE: Alkaline (6LR61/NEDA 1604A) batteries are recommended. Carbon-zinc battery may be used but memory holding time will be substantially reduced. Memory holding time for a fresh alkaline battery is approximately 8 hours (if radio or alarm are not operated) which should take care of short, nuisance-type AC power failures. To preserve battery life, the unit should remain plugged into an AC outlet. As the battery gets older, its voltage drops and memory may be lost. Be sure to replace the battery periodically. Battery should be removed if the unit will be stored for more than one month. Leaky battery can badly damage the clock radio.

Cleaning Compact Discs
• Dirty discs can cause poor sound quality. Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
• If a disc becomes dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and then remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Also, never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.
CD Lens Care
When your CD lens gets dirty it can also cause the unit to output poor sound quality. To clean the lens you will need to purchase a CD lens cleaner which can maintain the output sound quality. For instructions on cleaning the CD lens, refer to the ones accompanying the lens care.
Cleaning the Exterior
Prior to cleaning the exterior, be sure to unplug the power cord from the AC power outlet. Wipe the exterior with a soft, clean, and slightly water-dampened cloth.
Precautions
• Never open the cabinet under any circumstances. Any repairs or internal adjustments should be made only by a trained technician.
• Warning: Never operate this product with the cabinet removed.
• The CD player of this unit uses a laser to read the music on the disc. The laser mechanism corresponds to the cartridge and stylus of a record player. Although this product incorporates a laser pick-up lens, it is completely safe when operated according to directions.
• Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use damaged, warped or cracked discs.
• Do not touch the pick-up lens which is located inside the disc compartment. Also, to keep dust from collecting on the pick-up lens, do not leave the compartment door open for an extended period of time.

TROUBLESHOOTING FOR REMOTE CONTROL
• Is the unit plugged into a working AC outlet?
Try plugging it into the one that you know will work.
• Is the unit on?
Press RADIO ON/BAND or PLAY to turn the unit on.
• Have you selected the correct function when pressing on the buttons?
For example, if the unit is in CD mode and you try tuning to a particular radio frequency, the remote control is not going to look like it’s working. In such cases, press RADIO ON/BAND to select the correct function first, then press on the buttons.
• Is the battery weak?
Try replacing old battery with fresh ones.
• Are you pointing the remote control directly at the unit while pressing the buttons?
You should be aiming the remote at the SNOOZE button because that is where the sensor is at on the main unit.
• Are you too far from the unit when using the remote control?
The remote control sensor can only sense signals (from the remote control) within a limited distance. So move closer towards the unit.
• Are there any obstacles between the remote control and the unit?
If there are, move all objects standing in the way between the remote control and the unit.
