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.
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
headphones are in place.

Using the FM and AM Antennas
Before you use your audio system, you’ll want
to make sure the FM antenna is positioned
properly. Connect the FM antenna to the FM
connector on the back of the unit. Uncoil it,
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.
