REMOTE CONTROL UNIT BATTERY INSTALLATION
Dry Cell Batteries (not included) (AA size x 2)
Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote control, and insert the batteries, taking care to align the ª and · polarities.
1 Control Cable
Incorrect use of batteries may cause leakage or rupture. Always follow these guidelines: A. Insert batteries into the battery compartment
correctly matching the positive ª and negative ·
polarities, as indicated inside the compartment. B. Never mix new and used batteries. C. Do not mix different brands of batteries.
Notes:
• To prevent battery leakage, remove the batteries when not using the remote control for more than one month. If leakage occurs, carefully wipe away any battery fluid inside the compartment, and replace the batteries with new ones.
• Do not allow books or other objects to rest on top of the remote control, since the buttons may be depressed, causing faster battery depletion.
CAUTIONS REGARDING THE CD CHANGER
• Avoid placing the changer on heat-generating sources such as amplifiers as doing so might affect performance.
• Install this compact disc changer as far away as possible from tuners and TV sets as close proximity to such equipment might cause noise or picture degradation. Such noise may be particularly noticeable when an indoor antenna is used. Use an outdoor antenna, or turn off power to the compact disc changer.
• Place the changer on a level surface.
CLEANING THE CHANGER
To clean the changer, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, wipe the changer with a soft cloth with a solution of one part detergent to 5 or 6 parts water, wring well, then wipe off the dirt. Use a dry cloth to dry the surface. Do not use volatile liquids such as benzene or thinner which might harm the changer.
STORING DISCS
• Store discs in their cases vertically, avoiding locations with high heat or humidity, or extremely low temperatures, such as inside a vehicle or in direct sunlight.
• Follow precautionary notes listed on disc labels.

CD LENS CLEANER
The changer’s pickup lens should not become dirty in normal use. RadioShack offers cleaning kits for CD lens.
CLEANING AND HANDLING COMPACT DISCS
• Fingerprints or smudges on a CD’s surface might not directly affect the recorded signals, but might cause degradation of sound quality. Keep your discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer periphery. RadioShack offers a variety of cleaning kits for CDs.
• If a disc becomes very dirty, wipe the dirt away gently with a soft cloth moistened in water, removing any water drops with another soft, dry cloth.
• When holding discs, do not touch their signal surfaces. Hold by the edges, or by one edge and the center hole.
• Do not affix gummed labels or tape to the label surfaces. Do not scratch or damage the label.
• Discs rotate at high speed inside the changer. Do not use damaged, cracked, or warped discs.
• Do not play a CD with other than a circular shape as malfunction might occur.
• Do not use CD accessories such as stabilizer protection sheets, or protection rings as they might cause malfunction.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Do not clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents, which might damage the disc.
Record cleaning sprays
Thinner
Benzene
Your changer can play discs which display these marks.
'
Notes: It may not be possible to play unfinalized discs which have very little recording time left on them. Finalizing a CD-R or CD-RW disc means making a recorded disc playable on an ordinary CD changer. To play CD-RWs, the changer must be specifically compatible with CD-RW discs.
When transporting your changer, remove all discs from the rack. Turn off POWER, wait for OFF to disappear from the display, then unplug the power cord.
