TO MINIMISE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THE UNIT TO
RAIN OR MOISTURE. DO NOT OPEN THE CABINET AS IT CONTAINS DANGEROUS VOLTAGE.
ONLY QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS ARE ALLOWED TO CARRY OUT REPAIR AND SERVICE.
If the plug of the power cord needs to be replaced, it is important that the replacement is identical to
the plug to be replaced, or that the new plug has been recommended by the manufacturer
A triangle with a lightning symbol draws the user's attention to
"dangerous voltage" without insulation in the cabinet which may be
high enough to entail a risk of electric shock.
A triangle with an exclamation mark draws the user's attention to
important instructions for use and maintenance in the accompanying
manual, which should be studied.
TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK, IT IS IMPORTANT TO INSERT THE PLUG CORRECTLY INTO
THE SOCKET.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ AND OBSERVE BOTH THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL AND THE
INSTRUCTIONS ON THE UNIT. KEEP THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
This unit was designed and manufactured with a view to providing maximum safety for the user. Incorrect use of the unit
may cause electrical shock or fire. The protection devices built into this unit will protect the user if the procedures below are
observed in connection with installation, use and repair. This unit is fully electronic and contains no parts that can be
repaired by the user.
DO NOT REMOVE THE CABINET. RISK OF DANGEROUS VOLTAGE. ONLY QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS ARE ALLOWED TO
REPAIR THE UNIT.
Heat
Do not place the unit near sources of heat such as radiators,
heat registers, ovens or other units that produce heat.
Water and moisture
The unit must not be placed close to water, such as bathtub,
wash basin, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a damp cellar or
close to a swimming pool, etc.
Cleaning
Unplug the unit before cleaning. Do not use liquid detergents
and aerosol cleaning agents. Use a dry cloth.
Power cords
Wiring must be organised to prevent people from stepping on
the cables and to avoid pinching by objects placed on or
beside them. Take special care around sockets and plug boxes
and where the power cords leave the unit.
Overloading
Make sure that wall sockets, extension cords and plug boxes
are not overloaded as this may lead to fire or electrical shock.
Read the manual
Upon unpacking the unit, please read the manual carefully
and observe all the instructions given.
Power supply
Only the power supply indicated on the rating plate must be
used for this unit. If you are not sure which power supply you
have, please contact the distributor or the local electricity
supplier.
Earthing or polarisation
If the plug cannot be inserted properly into the socket, or if the
plug does not fit, the unit must not be used in your country.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Ventilation
The cabinet is provided with slots and openings to ensure
ventilation and reliable operation and to protect the unit
against overheating. Do not block or cover these openings.
The openings must never be blocked, for instance by placing
the unit on a bed, a sofa, a carpet or similar surface.
05
Service
Do not attempt to carry out any service work yourself. By
opening or removing the cabinet, you will be exposed to
dangerous voltage or other hazards. Any service work should
be carried out by qualified technicians.
Spare parts
If spare parts are required, make sure that the service
technician uses spare parts specified by the manufacturer or
spare parts with the same characteristics as the original.
Unauthorised spare parts may cause fire, electrical shock, etc.
Safety check
After service or repairs on the unit, ask the service technician
to carry out a safety check to ensure that the unit is ready for
use.
Damage
Unplug the unit and contact qualified technicians in the
following cases:
A) If the power cord or the plug is damaged.
B) If liquid has been spilled on the unit or objects have fallen
into the unit.
C) If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.
D) If the unit does not work properly after adhering to the
instructions in the operation manual. Only the settings
described in the operation manual must be made as
incorrect setting may result in damage and often will make
it difficult for a qualified technician to make the unit work
properly again.
E) If the unit has been dropped or damaged in any other way.
F) When the operation of the unit changes drastically, the unit
requires service.
Lightning
Unplug the unit for additional protection during thunder or
when the unit is not used for prolonged periods. This will
prevent damage to the unit from lightning and power surges.
Penetration of objects and liquid
Never push any foreign objects through the openings into the
unit, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or shortcircuit parts and thus cause fire or electric shock. Do not spill
liquid on the unit.
Accessories
Do not place the unit on unstable surfaces such as a trolley,
stand, tripod, shelf or table. The unit may fall and injure
children or adults or be seriously damaged. Use only trolley,
stand, tripod, shelf or table that is very stable or provided with
the unit. The unit must be installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions and by means of installation
equipment recommended by the manufacturer. If the unit is
placed on a trolley, the trolley must be moved very carefully.
Sudden stops, unnecessary force and uneven surfaces may
cause the trolley to turn over.
Loads
Do not place heavy loads on the unit and do not step on it.
The load may fall and cause serious injury to persons or
damage to the unit.

the unit further away from the television set, radio or video
player.
Condensation
Condensation may occur in the following cases:
- When the unit is moved directly from a cold to a warm place.
- When the unit is used in a room where the radiator has just
been switched on or a place where the cold air from the airconditioning system is directed at the unit.
- If the unit is used in the summer in a warm and humid room
just after it has been moved from an air-conditioned room.
- If there is steam or a high level of humidity in the room.

REMOTE CONTROL
Installation of batteries
1 Remove the cover as illustrated.
2 Position two batteries of the type AAA/R03/UM4 in the
battery compartment. Make sure that the orientation of the
batteries is correct (see drawing at bottom).
3 Replace the cover.
- Do not mix new and old batteries and do not use different types of batteries.
- If the remote control is not used for prolonged periods, remove the batteries from the remote control to avoid corrosion.

Tangent cannot guarantee the playback of homemade CD-R/RW and DVD+/-R/RW because of the several different types of discs and
different types of software for producing these discs.
The playback ability of a CD-R/RW and DVD+/-R/RW depends on the disc and the software that made it.
