Wiring the Mains Power Supply Plug(UK Only)

IMPORTANT NOTICE

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse. The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug and, if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used.

Never use the plug with the fuse cover omitted. If the cover is detachable. If a replacement fuse cover is required, it must be of the same colour as the pin face of the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.

However, if there is no alternative to cutting off the plug, remove the fuse and then safely dispose of the plug. Do NOT connect the plug to a mains socket as there is a risk of shock hazard from the bared flexible cord.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:–

BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE

As these colours may not correspond to the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:–

The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK. The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH THE LETTER E OR BY

THE EARTH SYMBOL , OR COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN AND YELLOW.

The main lead must be plugged into an appropriate socket.

Before plugging your system into a main socket, you must check the voltage.

Plug the main lead into an appropriate socket.

Press the ( ) button to switch your micro component system on.

To take full advantage of your new micro component system, follow these installation instructions before connecting the unit.

Install the system on a flat, stable surface. Never place this unit on carpeting. Never place this unit in an outdoor area. Maintain an open space of approximately 6 inches (15 cm) on the sides

and rear of the system, for ventilation purposes. Make sure that you have enough room to open the compact disc com-

partment easily. Place the loudspeakers at a reasonable distance on either side of the

system to ensure good stereo sound. Direct the loudspeakers towards the listening area. For optimum performance, make sure that both speakers are placed at

an equal distance above the floor.

Inserting Remote Control Batteries

Insert or replace remote control batteries when you:

Purchase the micro component system Find that the remote control is no longer operating correctly

When replacing the batteries, use a new set of batteries and never mix alkaline and manganese batteries.

Place your thumb on the position marked on the battery compartment cover (rear of the remote control) and push the cover in the direction of the arrow.

Insert two AAA, LR03 or equivalent batteries, taking care to respect the polarities:

+ on the battery against + in the battery compartment – on the battery against – in the battery compartment

Replace the cover by sliding it back until it clicks into position.

The AM aerial (for medium waves) can be:

Placed on a stable surface Fixed to the wall (you must first remove the base)

The AM aerial connector terminals are located on the rear of the system and are marked AM ANT.

To avoid noise interference, check that the loudspeaker wires do not run close to the aerial wires. Always keep them at least 2 inches (5 cm) away.

Connecting the AM (MW)Aerial

How to connect a COAXIAL TYPE aerial.

Connect a 75Ω antenna to the FM antenna terminal. Plug the connector on the FM aerial supplied into the coaxial socket (75Ω) marked FM on the rear of the system. Follow the instructions given on Page 15 to tune into a radio station, and determine the best position for the aerial. If reception is poor, you may need to install an outdoor aerial.

To do so, connect an outdoor FM aerial to the FM socket on the rear of the system using a 75Ω coaxial cable (not supplied).

Connecting the FM Aerial

The auxiliary input can be used to take advantage of the sound quality of your micro component system when listening to other sources.

Examples

: A television

A video disc player A Hi-Fi stereo video cassette recorder

To connect to the external source, the source must have an audio output. In addition, you need an RCA connection cable.

Set the system to standby mode and disconnect it and the external source from the main socket.

Connect the audio cable to the rear of the micro component system.

Connect the... To the connector marked...

Red jack R (right) White jack L (left)

For optimum sound quality, do not invert the right and left channels.

Plug the system back into the main socket and press ( ) to switch it on.

Select the AUX source by pressing AUX. Result: AUX is displayed.

Switch the external source on.

Example: You can watch a film and take advantage of stereo sound

provided that the original sound track is in stereo (as if you were in a cinema).

Directions in Installing Speaker

Installation in a place near heating apparatus, under direct lay of light or with high humidity may cause performance degradation of the speaker.

Do not install on the wall or on a high place of pole or other unstable place to prevent any safety accident caused by falling of the speaker.

Do not take the speaker apart from TV or computer monitor. The speaker near the TV or computer monitor may influence the quality of the screen display.
