In accordance with FCC requirements, changes or modifications not expressly approved by Thomson 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.

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

EN 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 registration Card.

Back View

1.FM Pigtail Antenna.

2.Subwoofer / Main Speaker Jacks.

3.AM Loop antenna 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

Each speaker has a black (negative) / red (positive) wire and a black (negative) / purple (positive) wire. When connecting the speakers, match the red / purple wires to the red / purple jacks and the black wires to the black jacks.
