protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment o󰀨 and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

This system is equipped with non-skid rubber 'feet' to prevent the product from moving when
you operate the controls. These 'feet' are made from non-migrating rubber material specially
formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your furniture. However certain types of
oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives, or cleaning sprays may cause the rubber
'feet' to soften, and leave marks or a rubber residue on the furniture. To prevent any damage
to your furniture we strongly recommend that you purchase small self-adhesive felt pads,
available at hardware stores and home improvement centers everywhere, and apply these
pads to the bottom of the rubber 'feet' before you place the product on ne wooden furniture.

Selecting ne audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your
musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement
your equipment o󰀨ers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level.
One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion and,
most importantly, without a󰀨ecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of
sound. So what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against
this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After
all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For a Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime
of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is
often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group
recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
Customer's Record:
The serial number of this product is found on its bottom. You should note the serial number of
this unit in the space provided as a permanent record of your purchase to aid in identication
in the event of theft of loss.
