UNPACKING AND SET-UP
•Carefully remove the unit from the carton and remove all packing material from
the unit.
•Remove any labels or stickers which may be on the front or top of the set, but
do not remove any labels from the back or bottom.
•We suggest that you retain the original carton and packing materials in case it
ever becomes necessary to return your unit for service. This is the only sure
way to protect the unit from damage in transit.
• Remove any small strips of tape that may have been used to prevent the CD
door from opening in transit.
• Unwind the lead wire FM antenna on the back of the unit and extend it to its full
length.
• The unit is shipped with a “dummy CD” display card in the CD player. This
“dummy CD” card must be removed before you can use the CD player. Refer
to the “PLAYING COMPACT DISCS” instructions on Page 15.
SPEAKER CONNECTION
Connect each speaker to the corresponding speaker terminals on the back panel
of the main unit. Make sure that the left speaker plug is connected to the left (L)
speaker jack and the right speaker plug is connected to the right (R) speaker jack.

POWER SOURCE
This system is designed to operate on 120V 60Hz AC house current . Connecting
this system to any other power supply could result in damage to the unit which is
not covered by your warranty.You will note that this system is equipped with a
polarized AC power plug having one
blade wider than the other. This is a
safety feature. If this plug does not
fit into your existing AC outlet, do
not try to defeat this safety feature
by filing the wide blade to make it fit
into your outlet. If this plug will not
fit into your outlet, you probably have an out-dated non-polarized AC outlet. You
should have your outlet changed by a qualified licensed electrician.
AC Operation
1.)Unwind the AC Power Cord completely.
2.)Insert the plug into any convenient 120V 60Hz AC outlet.

PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE
This model 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 fine wooden furniture.

USING THE REMOTE CONTROLLER CORRECTLY
•Point the remote controller at the Remote Sensor.
•The functions of the buttons on the remote control are the same as the
corresponding controls on the main unit.
•When there is a strong ambient light source, the performance of the infrared
Remote Sensor may be degraded, causing unreliable operation.
•The maximum effective distance for remote control operation is about 15 feet.
BATTERY PRECAUTIONS
Follow these precautions when using batteries in this device:
1.Use only the size and type of batteries specified.
2.Be sure to follow the correct polarity when installing the batteries as indicated in the battery
compartment. Reversed batteries may cause damage to the device.
3.Do not mix different types of batteries together (e.g. Alkaline and Carbon-Zinc) or old batteries
with fresh ones.
4. If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent damage
or injury from possible battery leakage.
5.Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat and rupture.

PLAYING COMPACT DISCS
IMPORTANT: This CD player can play normal CDs plus CD Recordable
(CD-R) and CD Rewriteable (CD-RW) discs. However the playability of
CD-R and CD-RW discs may be affected by the type of software that
was used in ‘ripping’ the tracks from the original discs and ‘burning’ the
tracks onto the blank media. Playability may also be affected by the
quality and condition of the blank media you use for recording. 100%
compatibility cannot be guaranteed. This is not an indication of any
problems with your player.
1.) Press the POWER button to turn the system ‘On’.
2.) Press the CD button on the top panel of the main unit or the FUNCTION button
on the remote controls to select the CD function.
3.) Press the OPEN/CLOSE button on the top panel to open the CD door. The
main display shows “– – – –”. If you have not already done so, remove the
‘dummy CD’ from the player and discard it.
4.) Place a CD properly seated on the center spindle with the printed label side
facing upward. Gently pressing down on the disc near the center hole to make
sure that it is properly seated on the spindle.
5.) Close the CD door. The disc will spin and ‘00 00:00’ will flash in the display as
the player reads the table of contents on the disc. Within a few seconds the
disc will stop spinning and the display will show the total playing time and total
tracks on the disc.
Note: If the disc is inserted upside down or if the disc is badly scratched
and unreadable, playback will not be possible. In this case the main
display will show “no dISC”. Remove the disc and re insert it properly,
or try another disc.

COMPACT DISC CARE
•To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the centre of the case and
lift the disc outs, holding it carefully by the edges.
•Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc’s recorded surface
with a soft cloth.Unlike conventional records, compact discs have no grooves to
collect dust and microscopic debris, so gently wiping with a soft cloth should
remove most particles. Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the outside of
the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will have absolutely no effect on
reproduction quality.
•Clean the disc periodically with a soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Never use detergents
or abrasive cleaners to clean the disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.
•Never write on or affix labels to the surface of compact discs.
CARE OF THE CABINETS
•If the cabinets become dusty wipe them with a soft dry dust cloth. Do not use
any wax or polish sprays on the cabinets.
•If the front panel becomes dirty or smudged with fingerprints it may be cleaned
with a soft cloth slightly dampened with a mild soap and water solution. Never
use abrasive cloths or polishes as these will mar the finish of your unit.
CAUTION
Never allow any water or other liquids to get inside the unit while cleaning.
