Setup and connection
Setup location
• Choose a stable, even surface.
• Ensure that the environment is dry and free of dust.
• Avoid placing the unit close to sources of heat or in
direct sunlight.
• Route connecting cables in such a way that no-one can
trip over them.
• Do not place any heavy objects on top of the cables
or units.
Connecting loudspeakers
Use the cables supplied or equivalent, two-core speaker
cable with a cross-section of at least 0.5 mm2 to connect
the loudspeakers. You can order suitable cables and ba-
nana plugs as a set in our online shop (www.teufelaudio.
com) in the area "Accessories".
On the back of the CD receiver, you will find the connec-
tor terminals 22 "SPEAKER OUT" for the right ("Right")
and left ("Left") loudspeakers.
The terminals are marked in red (+) and black (-) respec-
tively.
Ensure that the correct poles are con-
nected!
Connect the like-coloured terminals with each
other. Otherwise, the sound quality will suffer. The
cores of the speaker cable are marked with different
colours or shapes.
Split the loudspeaker cable on
both ends over a length of about
30 mm and remove approx. 10
mm of the insulation sheathing
in each case. Twist the cable to
ensure that no wires protrude.
The correct procedure for connecting the cables to the
loudspeakers should be described in the loudspeaker
instruction manual.
If you are using banana plugs, screw the cable to the
plug (see instructions for the banana plug) and push the
plug into the socket of the connector terminal 22 on the
CD receiver.
If you don’t use any banana plugs, turn the connector
terminal 6 counter clockwise. Insert the stripped cable
end into the hole that is now visible. Turn the terminal
clockwise. This will clamp the cable in place.
Subwoofer
You can connect an active subwoofer to RCA jack 21
"Out • Sub". Only the low frequency audio signals are
output at this jack.
Audio output
The audio signal is output at RCA jacks 20 "Out • Rec"
without sound control. You can connect a recording
device (e.g. cassette recorder) here.
Audio inputs
You can connect almost any audio source, such as a com-
puter, MP3 player (with/without dock), game console, TV
etc. to the RCA jacks 19 "IN Tape/AUX 1/DVD" on the
back of the unit, as long as the source unit has an output
with a line level. Such outputs are either stereo RCA jacks
or 3.5 mm jack plugs. Using a corresponding connecting
cable, connect these units to jacks 21 "IN Tape/AUX 1/
DVD". Suitable cables are available in our online shop
(www.teufelaudio.com) in the area "Accessories".
On the front of the unit, there are two further audio in-
puts: 3 "AUX 2" with RCA jacks and 4 "Line In" as a 3.5
mm jack plug. These can be used for quick and easy con-
nection of an audio source (e.g. MP3 player or mobile
phone) without having to turn the CD receiver around.

Antennas
Danger Danger of lightning striking!
If you use outside or roof antennae, it is vital
that you ensure the antenna unit is protected
adequately against lightning.
FM/VHF antenna
The antenna for receiving FM/VHF stations is connected
to jack 17 "FM". This antenna can be a roof/outdoor an-
tenna or a cable TV connection. To connect the antenna,
you will need a coaxial cable.
If there is no antenna connection pro-
vided at the setup location, you can
use the wire antenna d supplied with
the unit. Unwind the wire antenna,
push the plug onto the pin in jack
17 "FM" and move the wire antenna
around to find the position where
reception is best. Then fix the antenna
in this position with adhesive tape.
To operate the remote control, you need two 1.5 volt
batteries of type Micro or AAA (included in the scope of
delivery).
Inserting batteries
• Slide the lid of the battery
compartment on the back of
the remote control open by
pushing it in the direction of
the arrow, and remove the lid.
• Where applicable, remove the
old batteries (please follow the
instructions on page 12).
• Insert the batteries in the bat-
tery compartment as shown in
the figure.
• Replace the lid on the com-
partment and slide it shut.
AM/MW antenna
Antenna c supplied with the unit is for the reception of
medium wave stations (AM/MW). You can set up this
antenna free-standing or screw it to a cupboard or wall
shelving.
Connect the connecting cable of the antenna to jacks 18
"AM" on the back of the CD receiver. Press the lever of
each connector terminal and insert the end of the cable
into the adjacent opening. When you release the lever,
the cable is clamped in position.
Mains connection
• Check that the mains switch 24 "Power" on the back of
the unit is turned off (position "OFF").
• Plug mains cable 23 into a mains socket.
Remote control
Mode of operation
The remote control transmits the control signals by means
of infrared light. To allow this, you need to point the
remote control towards the unit. Ensure that the infrared
light beam is not obstructed by objects between the
remote control and the unit.
Fluorescent lamps and energy-saving lamps installed in
the vicinity can impair the function of the remote control
or even prevent it functioning.

• Self-burned CDs (CDR, CDRW) can normally be read,
though there may be problems if the burning speed is
too high or "bad" blanks are used. Trial and error is
the only way to find out which CDs can be read.
• CDs produced for commercial use cannot always be
read.
Handling CDs
Every CD has a durable plastic coating which protects it
against external influences. However, it is still necessary
to protect the CD against soiling and scratching at all
times.
CD players can compensate for minor damage to the CD.
Deep scratches or other damage may cause the CD to
"stick" or jump or cause other problems.
See the information on the CD case for correct handling
of CDs!

Your new CD receiver can read USB sticks of types USB
1.0 and 2.0 and can play music files in MP3 format
stored on them.
USB stands for "Universal Serial Bus". All modern com-
puters have a USB port for connecting a keyboard and
mouse. USB sticks were originally developed to replace
computer disks and provide an easy method of transport-
ing data. These practical sticks are now also used in
digital cameras and music players.
Handling mobile storage media
USB sticks are sensitive electronic devices and must
be handled with proper care. When you are not using
your stick, you should always put on the cap or cover to
protect it.
Important
Never use a stick which has suffered mechani-
cal damage or which has fallen into liquid.
Never expose sticks to direct strong sunlight.
Careless handling can lead to data loss! Wherever
possible, make backup copies of your music on your
PC.
Inserting and playing from a USB stick
• Insert the USB stick into port 2 "USB". The plug on the
stick will only fit into the port in one position.
• Use button 11 "Source" or 45 "Source ▲" and 31
"Source ▼" to select source "USB".
• The CD receiver reads the card and begins to play the
files.
• If no playable files are found on the USB stick, "NO
USB" appears on the display panel.
The Play functions for CD and USB are identical and are
described in the section "Play functions" on page 16.
Removing a USB stick
Attention Danger of damage!
Never remove the USB stick while the CD
receiver is set to source "USB"! First switch to
another source, e.g. radio reception, using button 11
"Source".
• Simply pull out the stick.

Care and cleaning
Clean your CD receiver regularly with a soft, slightly
moist microfibre cloth. The following points must be
observed:
Danger Risk of electric shock!
In contact with live parts water can lead to
electric shock or short circuit.
• Ensure that no water gets into the unit.
• Disconnect the device from the mains power supply
before cleaning.
Attention Danger of damage to the unit!
Using the wrong cleaning materials may dam-
age the delicate surface of the enclosure.
• If possible use only plain water with no cleaning prod-
ucts. In case of stubborn marks a mild soap solution
may be used.
• In no circumstances should caustic cleaning products,
white spirit, thinners, petrol or similar be used for
cleaning.
Troubleshooting
The following instructions should help you to solve problems. If this doesn't work, please contact our hotline (see page 3).
Mind the warranty instructions.
Problem Possible cause Solution
Unit not working, the dis-
play does not light up.
No power supply. Check that the mains plug is inserted cor-
rectly.
Use another device to check that the socket is
working.
The loudspeakers remain
silent.
Wrong source selected. Select the correct source (see page 10).
Volume is set to »0«. Increase the volume.
Headphones connected. Unplug the headphones. If headphones are
plugged in, the loudspeakers are switched
off.
Loudspeaker cable is loose. Check the loudspeaker connections.
Playback is noisy. Generally, the CD receiver is a very low-
noise system. Usually, the very high resolu-
tion of the loudspeaker system in the high
tone range will "unmask" the poor quality
of a signal source (e.g. of MP3 files) in the
high tone range.
Ensure that the source transmits a good signal
to the CD receiver.
Poor reception Transmitter too far away or very low-power Try to improve the reception by changing the
direction of the antenna.
Optimise the tuning with buttons 15 and 42
"TUNING +/–".
If necessary, switch to mono (press button 35
"FM ST/M").
"NO DISC" CD inserted upside down Insert the CD with the printed side facing
upwards.
How to clean your CDs
To clean your CDs, use only cleaning agents approved
for cleaning CDs.
If necessary, carefully wipe the CD
with a soft, lint-free cloth, working
from the centre to the edge. To do this,
hold the CD between index finger and
thumb of your other hand.
Touching the recording side of the CD
with your hand may cause problems
when playing the CD.
