Useful advice
Do not use your CD Micro System immediately after transporting it from a
cold place to a warm place, as condensation may cause the system to
malfunction. If moisture forms inside this system, it may not operate
properly. To correct the problem, turn off the power and wait about 30
minutes for moisture to evaporate
This system is fitted with a laser. To avoid accidents, it is to be opened by
qualified technicians only.
Never leave the tray open as dust could cover the laser lens and/or the tray
could be bumped into accidentally
Do not place the system near wet areas such as bathrooms and pool side.
Avoid storing the system at humid places or near abnormally heated areas.
Power is continuously supplied to the system. To disconnect power
completely, unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
LOUD NOISE CAN DAMAGE YOUR HEARING! Make sure you turn down
the volume on the unit before putting on headphones. Increase the volume
to your desired level only after headphones are in place.
Installation
To ensure sufficient ventilation, keep the spacings, as shown below, free from other surfaces:
The black and red ends of a
speaker wire should be
connected, respectively, to a
set of black and red terminals.

Useful advice
• This unit uses a laser beam. To prevent any accident due to this type of beam, the set
should only be opened by properly-trained personnel.
• Make sure you keep your set away from water and high temperatures.
• If you do not use the remote control for more than one month, we advise you to take out
all the batteries to prevent leakage.
• To prevent any personal injury, do not mix battery types and never reverse their polarities.
• Important battery information
If you’re not going to use your unit for a month or more, be sure to remove batteries
because they can leak and cause damage. Discard leaky batteries immediately as leaking
batteries can cause skin burns or other personal injuries. Dispose of batteries in the proper
manner, according to provincial and local regulations. Any battery may leak electrolyte if
mixed with a different battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if all batteries are not replaced at
the same time, if disposed of in fire, or if an attempt is made to charge a battery not
intended to be recharged.
Maintenance
• Clean the set with a soft cloth or a dampen chamois leather. Never use solvents, as it may
damage the unit.
Cassettes
• To protect your recordings from accidental erasure on one or both sides
of your cassette, snap out the tab at the top of the cassette. If you decide
later to record on the tape, seal the hole with a piece of adhesive tape. (Refer to
diagram on the right)
Quit Slacking
• A little bit of slack in your tapes can cause scratches on the tape, or worse
yet, the tape could break. If you notice some slack in the tape, use a pencil to
tighten it up before you insert it.

Troubleshooting tips
Cleaning the exterior
Disconnect the system from AC power before cleaning the exterior of the unit with a soft dust cloth
Clean the exterior with a soft clean cloth or slightly moistened chamois leather. DO NOT use solvents
as it may cause damage to the unit.
Handling CDs
Do not touch the signal surfaces. Hold CDs by the edges, or by one edge and the hole.
Do not affix labels or adhesive tapes to the label surfaces. Do not scratch or damage the label.
CDs rotate at high speeds inside the player. Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) CDs
Make sure CDs are stored in their original case after use. Keep them away from damp, humid or
abnormally heated places.
Cleaning CDs
Dirty CDs can cause poor sound quality. Always keep CDs clean by wiping them gently with a soft
cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
If a CD becomes dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and
then remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
Do not use record cleaning sprays or antistatic agents on CDs. Also, never clean CDs with benzene,
thinner, or other volatile solvents which may cause damage to disc surface
