2. Replace the compartment door, making sure the batteries are firmly and correctly in place. The set is now ready to operate.
3. Remove the batteries if the set is not to be used for a long time.

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.

Using AC POWER

1. Check if the power voltage as shown on the type plate on the base of the set, corresponds to your local power supply. If it does not, consult your dealer or service center.
2. Connect the power cord to the MAINS inlet and the wall outlet. The power supply is now connected and ready for use.
3. To switch off completely, withdraw the power cord from the wall outlet.
4. Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet to protect your set during heavy thunderstorms.

Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be disposed of properly.

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 push the POWER button to the off position after using the set.

PRECAUTIONS AND SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

• Place the set on a hard, flat surface so that the system does not tilt.
• Do not expose the set, batteries, CDs or cassettes to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.
• Do not cover the set. Adequate ventilation with a minimum gap of 15 cm between the ventilation holes and surrounding surfaces is necessary to prevent heat build-up.
• The mechanical parts of the set contain self-lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or lubricated.
• To clean the set, use a soft, slightly dampened chamois leather. Do not use any cleaning agents containing alcohol, ammonia, benzene or abrasives as these may harm the housing.

Tape deck maintenance

To ensure quality recording and playback of the tape deck, clean parts A, B and C shown in the diagram below, after approx. 50 hours of operation, or on average once a month. Use a cotton bud slightly moistened with alcohol or a special head cleaning fluid to clean both decks.

1. Open the cassette holder by pressing STOP/EJECT ■ ▲.
2. Press PLAY ▶ and clean the rubber pressure rollers ©.
3. Press PAUSE II and clean the magnetic heads Ⓐ and also the capstan Ⓑ.
4. After cleaning, press STOP/EJECT ■ ▲.

CD player and CD handling

• The lens of the CD player should never be touched!
• Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can cause condensation to form and the lens of your CD player to cloud over. Playing a CD is then not possible. Do not attempt to clean the lens but leave the set in a warm environment until the moisture evaporates.
  • Use only Digital Audio CDs.
• To take a CD out of its box, press the center spindle while lifting the CD. Always pick up the CD by the edge and replace the CD back in its box after use to avoid scratching and dust.
• To clean the CD, wipe in a straight line from the center towards the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use cleaning agents as they may damage the disc.
• Never write on a CD or attach any stickers to it.
