6 Connect the power cord to a wall outlet.
If the plug does not fit the wall socket,
detach the supplied plug adaptor (only for
models equipped with an adaptor).
Note
Do not attempt to lift up the system by the speakers.
There is a chance the unit will detach and drop. To
move the system, detach the speakers first and carry
them separately.
Note on the glass door of the CD
player
The CD player door is made of tempered glass.
Under normal conditions, this tempered glass is
more shock resistant and able to bear more weight
than ordinary glass. This glass, however, may
shatter if it receives a sharp blow or if it is
scratched.
To detach the speakers
1 Slide the speakers in the opposite direction of
the arrows of the illustration in “Attach the
speakers” (see step 2-3 on page 5).
2 After detaching the speakers, pass the speaker
cords through the speaker cord slot at the
bottom of the speaker to prevent them from
being damaged.
Tip
If you use the system with the speakers detached, you
may remove the four screws on the both sides of the
unit. If you do, be sure to retain the screws for future
use.
To replace the speaker grille
To remove the speaker grille, grasp one of the corners
and lift the grille out towards you. You can replace
the grille with one of the other supplied grilles of a
different color.
Verify which sides of the grille are rounded, then
attach the grille with the rounded sides on the top and
the bottom.
To remove the AM antenna
If noise is heard while listening to an AM station,
remove the AM antenna from the rear panel and
place the antenna outside.
1 Remove the rear cover. (see step 1 on the
page 4).
2 Remove the AM antenna.

Tip
With normal use, the batteries should last for about
six months. When the remote no longer operates the
system, replace both batteries with new ones.
Notes on batteries
• Make sure the battery poles (plus/minus) are
properly oriented.
• Do not use a new battery with an old one.
• Do not use different types of batteries together.
• If you do not use the remote for a long period of
time, remove the batteries to prevent possible
damage from battery leakage and corrosion.
• Do not use a battery that is leaking.
• If a battery has leaked, clean the battery
compartment and replace all the batteries.
• Do not place the remote in an extremely hot or
humid place.
• Do not expose the remote sensor to direct sunlight
or lighting apparatuses. Doing so may cause a
malfunction.
