Environmental information
All unnecessary packaging has been omitted.We
have tried to make the packaging easy to
separate into three materials: cardboard (box),
polystyrene foam (buffer) and polyethylene (bags,
protective foam sheet).
Your system consists of materials which can be
recycled and reused if disassembled by a
specialised company. Please observe the local
regulations regarding the disposal of packaging
materials, exhausted batteries and old
equipment.
Safety information
●Before operating the system, check that the
operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or
the voltage indication beside the voltage
selector) of your system is identical with the
voltage of your local power supply. If not, please
consult your dealer.
●Place the system on a flat, hard and stable
surface.
●Place the system in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in
your system. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches)
clearance from the rear and the top of the unit
and 5 cm (2 inches) from each side.
●The ventilation should not be impeded by
covering the ventilation openings with items,
such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc.
●Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to
excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources
caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.
●No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,
should be placed on the apparatus.
●No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall
be placed on the apparatus.
●Don’t expose the system to dripping or
splashing.
●Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the
AC power plug can be reached easily.
●The lens may cloud over when the system is
suddenly moved from cold to warm
surroundings, making it impossible to play a disc.
Leave the system in the warm environment until
the moisture evaporates.
●The mechanical parts of the set contain self-
lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or
lubricated.
●When the system is switched to Standby
mode, it is still consuming some power.
To disconnect the system from the
power supply completely, remove the AC
power plug from the wall socket.

Preparations
Rear connections
The type plate is located at the rear of the
system.
APower
Before connecting the AC power cord to the
wall outlet, ensure that all other connections
have been made.
If your system is equipped with a Voltage
Selector, set the VOLTAGE SELECTOR to the
local power line voltage.
WARNING!
–For optimal performance, use only the
original power cable.
–Never make or change any connections
with the power switched on.
–High voltage! Do not open.You run the
risk of getting an electric shock.
–The machine does not contain any user-
serviceable parts.
–Modification of the product could result
in hazardous radiation of EMC or other
unsafe operation.
To avoid overheating of the system, a safety
circuit has been built in. Therefore, your
system may switch to Standby mode
automatically under extreme conditions. If
this happens, let the system cool down
before reusing it (not available for all versions).
BAntennas Connection
Connect the supplied MW loop antenna to the
AM ANTENNA terminal. Adjust the position of
the antenna for optimal reception.

It is unnecessary to connect the FM pigital
antenna since it is fixed to the main unit..
●Adjust the FM antenna for optimal FM stereo
reception.

●Fully insert the stripped portion of the speaker
wire into the terminal as shown.
Notes:
–For optimal sound performance, use the
supplied speakers.
– Do not connect more than one speaker to any
one pair of + / - speaker terminals.
– Do not connect speakers with an impedance
lower than the speakers supplied. Please refer to
the SPECIFICATIONS section of this manual.
Optional connection
The optional equipment and connecting cords
are not supplied. Refer to the operating
instructions of the connected equipment for
details.
Connecting other equipment to your
system
Use a cinch cable to connect AUX to the
analogue audio out terminals of an external
equipment (TV,VCR, Laser Disc player, DVD
player or CD Recorder).
Note:
–If you are connecting equipment with a mono
output (a single audio out terminal), connect it to
the AUX left terminal. Alternatively, you can use a
“single to double” cinch cable (the output sound
still remain mono).
Inserting batteries into the
remote control
Insert two batteries (Type R03 or AAA) into the
remote control with the correct polarity as
indicated by the "+" and "-" symbols inside
the battery compartment.
CAUTION!
–Remove batteries if they are exhausted
or will not be used for a long time.
–Do not use old and new or different
types of batteries in combination.
–Batteries contain chemical substances, so
they should be disposed of properly.
