LASER PRODUCT

Setting up
• If you want to set up your CD receiver on a shelf, in a cabinet or any other
type of enclosure, always ensure that sufficient ventilation is available. An
open space of at least 3 cm at the sides and the top, and 5 cm at the back of
your system is required.
• Place the power supply cable as far as possible from the sound signal lines
in order to avoid disturbing signal interference.
• When making connections, always note the identification markings on the
cables and sockets, as well as those on the back of the unit, in order to avoid
improper connections. Improper connections can considerably impair sound
quality.
Connecting the speakers
In order to take full advantage of your unit´s superior play-back quality and
overall performance, only quality speakers with corresponding load ratings
should be used. Speakers should thus have an impedance of 4 to 16Ω.
Maximum receiver output is achieved with 4Ωspeakers.
In addition, always make sure that speaker wires are properly and tightly twisted
to avoid protruding individual wires. These can cause shorts.
Important:
In addition, proper speaker connection is also important for sound quality.
• As seen from the listener, the right speaker must be connected to the right
terminal (right channel) and the left speaker to the left terminal (left channel).
• One of the wires of a loudspeaker cable is marked, e.g. with a colour or rib.
Connect the marked wire to the red terminal, the non-marked wire to the
black one.
• Make sure that all loudspeakers are connected in the same way.
Power supply connection
• Only connect the unit to a 230V~, 50/60 Hz a.c. power source.
• Always ensure that the voltage indicated on the unit's rating plate agrees with
you local power supply.
• If this is not the case, consult your dealer or customer service center. The
rating plate is found on the back of the unit.
Antenna connection
Only a good antenna system (broadband cable connection to your own antenna
system, or a common house antenna system) can guarantee optimum reception
quality, especially for FM stereo broadcasts.
FM 75 Ω
• The FM 75 Ωsocket is used for connection to the Community or Cable An-
tenna System or to a roof-mounted FM antenna with an impedance of 75 Ohm.
• If non of these are available, you may use the cast (wire) antenna supplied for
nearby station (reception could be poor). You should not, however, change
the length of the cast antenna.
AM LOOP ANTENNA
• For AM reception, connect the supplied wires to the AM LOOP ANTENNA
terminals and position the antenna for best reception.
• The elevated antenna bas well as earth ecan also be connected to these
sockets in place of the frame antenna.
Note: do not place the AM loop antenna on the unit, as this unit employs a
computing device which could cause interference.
Connecting other programme sources
Before connecting any programme sources, always switch any other connected
units off.
In addition, note the correct connection of the stereo channels:
R: right (red)
L: left (white).
TAPE Connect the LINE IN sockets of your cassette deck, tape recorder
or DAT recorder to the sockets TAPE OUT.
Connect the LINE OUT sockets of your cassette deck, tape
recorder or DAT recorder to the sockets TAPE IN.
©Important Information for Units sold in Great Britain
Units sold in GB are suitable for operation from a 230V AC, 50 Hz mains supply.
In case this appliance is supplied with a Safety Standard Approved mains lead fitted
with a non-rewireable 13 Amp mains plug which, if unsuitable for your socket,
should be cut off and an appropriat plug fitted by a qualified electrician.
The fuse and
fuse holder must be removed from the plug as accidental insertion of
the redundant
plug into a 13 Amp socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard.
Note: The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should
it be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.
If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct type
and rating (5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362) must be used and
the fuse
cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged the lead and plug must
not be used until a replacement is obtained from your dealer.
If a non-rewireable plug or a rewireable 13 Amp (BS 1363) plug is used, it must
be fitted with a 5 Amp ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 fuse. If any other type of
plug is used it must be protected by a 5 Amp fuse either in the plug or at the
distribution board.
Important: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code:BLUE - NEUTRAL, BROWN - LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows: Connect the BLUE coloured wire to the plug terminal
marked with the letter 'N' or coloured black.
Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with a letter 'L'
or coloured red.
In no circumstances must any of the wires be connected to the terminal marked
with a letter 'E', earth symbol e, coloured green or green and yellow.
Replacement mains lead can be obtained from your dealer.

Switching on and off
When you want to switch your receiver on, press the POWER button. The red
LED in the middle of the button indicates that the unit is on.
button depressed: POWER ON
button not depressed: STANDBY
The receiver will be activated and the last selected source will be selected.
When the receiver is switched to active mode (as described below), the LED in
the power knob lights up.
The receiver is muted for approximately 3 seconds when it is turned on in order
to suppress disturbing initial signal noise.
To switch the receiver to stand-by press the POWER button again.
Stand By
You can switch the system to STAND BY with the ybutton on the remote
control or with the POWER button.
The display shows the clock time.
When you want to switch your system on again, simply press one of the input
selection buttons on the unit or on the remote control or the POWER button.
Source Selection
To select a listening source, press either the corresponding button on the unit
or the corresponding button on the remote control.
Automatic Source Selection
When the receiver is switched on, the receiver automatically switches to the CD
input as soon as you press the CD player Bbutton.
Sound control
VOLUME The volume can be adjusted with the rotary VOLUME knob.
The volume can also be controlled via the remote control
with the VOLUME +/–buttons.
MUTING The volume can be completely muted by pressing the ĭ
button on the remote control.
This is useful, for example, if you want to take a telephone
call and do not want to be distracted by music, news, etc.,
from your system.
If the muting function is used when recording a tape, this
has no effect on the subsequent recording volume level as
only the speakers are muted.
The click you hear when you press the ĭbutton comes from
the relay which mutes the speakers.
The MUTING function can be deactivated by pressing the ĭ
button again or by pressing the VOLUME + button on the
remote control or any one of the input selection buttons.
BASS, TREBLE The BASS and TREBLE controllers can be used to
individually adjust the higher and lower frequencies from the
sound of your speakers. In this way, you can compensate for
surrounding acoustic irregularities which may be caused, for
example, by sound reflection behaviour on walls with
relatively large, empty surface areas, or ‘damping’ caused
by furniture or other objects.
LOUDNESS Pressing the LOUDNESS button slightly accentuates the
lower and higher frequencies which renders a more balanced
overall sound during quieter passages.
Its effectiveness depends in turn on the setting of the volume
knob. The sound is thus optimally adapted to human hearing
sensitivity, which is also dependent on the respective
volume.
If you have connected speakers which exhibit a great deal of
bass, LOUDNESS should always remain off to achieve a
more linear acoustic pattern. In this way, you compensate for
excessive emphasis of the lower frequencies.
DEFEAT The DEFEAT switch can be used to deactivate the bass and
treble control without changing the respective settings.
This function merely bypasses the signal path through the
bass and treble controls ensuring that the original sound is
reproduced with the highest fidelity.
BALANCE For effective stereo playback, it is important that the sound
emanates equally from both speakers.
Acoustic equalibrium can be distorted by furniture groups or
the listener´s position in a room, thus distorting the
impression of stereo sound.
The BALANCE controller can compensate for such
distortions.

Switching on
• Select the radio input by pressing the TUNER BAND button.
– The first time you switch your unit on, it automatically switches to 'FM', and
the display indicates 87,50 MHz. STEREO ɳis also selected.
– Your unit is provided with the function 'LAST STATION MEMORY', which
means that the station that was playing when the set was switched off will be
selected again when the radio is switched back on.
Selecting the wave band
• Select the desired wave band (FM or MW) by pressing the TUNER BAND
button. Pressing this button switches to the next wave band in the following
order: FM - MW - FM.
– The display shows the selected band.
Adapting the antenna
If you receive broadcasts via broad band cable of a public or private cable
service, there may be high signal inputs at your antenna terminal, which may in
turn cause reception disturbances.
• If this is the case, press the ANT/CABLE button to switch on the input
attenuator ‘CABLE’ appears on the display. This reduces the antenna input
sensitivity, thus reducing disturbances. This setting is automatically stored.
FM reception MONO/STEREO
Normally, your unit is in stereo reception mode, which means that as soon as a
stereo signal of sufficient strength is detected, 'ɳ' appears in the display. If
stereo reception is disturbed, 'ɳ' disappears. In this way, disturbing
background noise is suppressed.
If noise-free stereo reception is not possible, you can switch your unit to MONO
reception.
• In this case, press MONO.
–'
ɳ' will disappear from the display.
The MUTING function is always switched off for MONO reception, allowing
the unit to receive even very weak broadcast signals.
RDS Radio Data System
Your tuner is an RDS tuner.
RDS (Radio Data System) stands for a new generation of radios that provides
the listener/user with more comfort and better reception in the short term, but
also opens up completely new information options for the future.
RDS-equipped receivers identify the tuned station (if it transmits 'RDS signals')
and indicate the name of the programme in the 8-place display (e.g. BAYERN 3,
SDR 3).
If you are tuned to an RDS station, the name of the station will be indicated after
a short time.
For more information, please see page 21.
Automatic station search
• To activate automatic station search (AUTO TUNING), press TUNING Q
or Runtil the frequency display begins 'to run'; then release the button.
– The search stops as soon as a station with sufficient reception quality is
found and tuned to precisely. The display shows TUNED.
– Every time you begin a search, the unit automatically switches to STEREO.
– A graph in the display indicates the field strength: the more illuminated
dashes you see, the stronger the reception.
–
The frequency of the received station is indicated in kHz (MW) or MHz (FM).
– If the search stops, the 'AUTO COMPARE' function first verifies whether the
station which has been found is already stored in the station memory. If this
is the case, the memory location of the station is displayed, as well as the
name of the station, if it already exists.
– Stations which are received with a weak field strength may be skipped.
These can be tuned to manually.
•
If desired, you can also interrupt the search by pressing TUNING QR.
Manual station search (manual tuning)
• Briefly press the TUNING Q or Rbutton to tune in the corresponding
direction in individual steps (FM: 25kHz; MW: 1 kHz).
• If you keep the button depressed, you can rapidly scan large frequency
ranges. When you release the button, AUTO TUNING is automatically
switched to. Muting is active during AUTO TUNING.
• If you briefly press one of the TUNING
Q
Rbuttons, manual tuning
is automatically switched to.
– Just as with automatic tuning , the TUNED flag and the number of
illuminated dashes indicate the reception quality.
– The 'AUTO COMPARE' function also verifies whether the found frequency is
already stored.
'LAST STATION MEMORY'
LAST STATION MEMORY means that the unit 'remembers' the last station that
was tuned to. This function ensures that the station which was selected before
the radio was switched off is automatically selected again when your radio is
switched back on.

• Press MEMORY.
– The station is stored at the next available memory location.
– The tuner software first checks the station memory for available memory
locations. If all the locations are occupied,’MEM FULL’ appears on the
display for approx. 1.5 seconds.
– Assigning a station frequency to two different memory locations is not
possible. The selected station is stored at the lowest available memory
location, meaning that you need not enter a number for memory locations.
– Every time the settings STEREO/MONO and ANTENNA/CABLE are changed,
they are automatically stored.
Storing stations
• If you want to store a station, press MEMORY.
– The first station which is stored is assigned to memory location 1, the
second station to memory location 2 and so on.
• If you want to move a stored station to another memory location, press
MEMORY.
– The station is always assigned to the first available memory location.
• Pressing the button again assigns a station to the next available memory
location.
• If you keep the button depressed, the memory locations are scanned one
after the other, deleting the previously assigned memory location.
Example:
You want to move your favourite station from memory location '6' to memory
location '1'.
• Select memory location '1'.
• Press CANCEL once.
– This deletes, or clears, memory location '1'.
You can also press MEMORY to move the station on location '1' to the next
available free memory location.
• Now select position '6', your favourite station, and then press MEMORY.
Your station is now stored on memory location '1'.
Calling up a stored station
• When you want to call up a stored station, press STATION OP. The
stations are called up in ascending or descending order.
Stations can also be selected via the system remote control:
• Select the radio input by pressing the TUNER button.
• Press the 1STATION 2buttons.
– The display shows the selected memory location number, and the unit
switches to this memory location.
– It is not possible to select a memory location which has not (yet) been
assigned to a station.
Example:
Memory location 6 is not assigned to a station.
If you are situated at memory location number 5 and press once STATION P
the unit will jump to memory location 7 (provided this location has been
assigned to a station).
Deleting a memory location
• If you want to delete a memory location to which a station is assigned, first
call up its number.
• Press STATION OPuntil you reach the station you want to delete.
You may also use the STATION 12buttons on the remote control.
• Press CANCEL.
– The memory location is deleted, and the memory location number does not
light up on the display anymore.
• Hold CANCEL down for 5 seconds if you want to delete all the memory
locations, for example after you move to another location.
– 'ERASE ?' appears briefly on the display.
• Keep the button depressed for an additional 5 seconds until the display
shows '87,5 MHz'.
– The station memory is deleted.
• If you now press one of the STATION OPbuttons, 'FREE' is shown on
the display.
• If you release the CANCEL button before these 5 seconds have elapsed, the
erase function is not carried out.

RDS Radio Data System
Your unit is capable of receiving and evaluating RDS information which is broad-
casted along with the normal broadcast signal. The channel name is displayed and
automatically stored in the unit´s memory, overwriting names previously stored.
RADIOTEXT
Some RDS stations broadcast RADIOTEXT, which is additional information on the
station and programme being broadcast. RADIOTEXT information appears as
‘running’ text in the display. RADIOTEXT is transmitted character-by-character
by the radio station. As a result of that it may take some time until the entire text
has been completely received.
• RADIOTEXT is called up by pressing the INFO several times until the
running text of the RADIOTEXT signal can be seen.
– If a station does not broadcast RADIOTEXT, the unit switches automatically to
the frequency indication.
Switching displays
• Pressing INFO briefly switches the display (when available) between station
name (RDS or one you have entered), RADIOTEXT (with RDS stations), and
frequency.
– When the station name is displayed, only the memory location number is
displayed to the left of the name.
Assigning station names
Stations which do not transmit the RDS code can be assigned any name of your
choice.
• Press EDIT.
– With TUNING
Q R, you can move the cursor in the desired
direction. You can enter up to eight characters.
