Batteries contain chemical substances,
so they should be disposed of properly.
Incorrect use of batteries can cause
electrolyte leakage and will corrode the
compartment or cause the batteries to
burst.Therefore:
• Do not mix battery types:e.g. alkaline with
carbon zinc.Only use batteries of the same
type for the set.
• When inserting new batteries,do not try to
mix old batteries with the new ones.
• Remove the batteries if the set is not to be
used for a long time.
UsingAC Mains
1 Check if the mains voltage, as shown on
the type plate located on the bottom
of the set,corresponds to your local
power supply.If it does not,consult your
dealer or service centre.
2 Connect the mains lead to the AC MAINS
inlet and the wall socket.The power supply
is now connected and ready for use.
3 If your set is equipped with a voltage
selector,located inside the battery
compartment, adjust the selector to match
the local mains.Disconnect the mains lead if
this selector has to be reset.
4 To switch off completely,unplug the mains
lead from the wall socket.
• Unplug the mains lead from the wall socket
to protect your set during heavy
thunderstorms.
The type plate is located on the
bottom of the set.
Switching power on/off:
Save energy
Whether you are using mains or battery
supply, to avoid unnecessary energy
consumption always adjust the source
selector to TAPE/OFF and check if the
cassette keys are released.
General operation
1 To select your sound source adjust the
source selector to CD,AM,FM or
TAPE/OFF.
2 Adjust the sound with the VOLUME and
DBB (Dynamic Bass Boost) controls.
3To switch off the set,adjust the source
selector to TAPE/OFF position and check
