General Safety Instructions

Read the operating instructions carefully before putting the appliance into operation and keep the instructions including the warranty, the receipt and, if possible, the box with the internal packing. If you give this device to other people, please also pass on the operating instructions.

• To avoid the risk of fire or an electric shock, you should not expose the device to rain or moisture. Consequently, do not use the device in the immediate vicinity of water - for example near a bath tub, a swimming pool or in a damp cellar.
• Use the device only for the intended purpose.
• Only connect the device at a properly installed plug socket. Pay attention that the specified voltage corresponds to the voltage of the plug socket.
• When using external mains supply, pay attention to the correct polarity and voltage. Always place the batteries in the correct direction.
• Assemble the device in such a way that the available ventilation openings are not covered.
• Never open the housing of the device. Incorrect repairs can constitute a considerable risk for the user. Should the device become damaged, in particular the mains supply cable, do not operate the device any longer, but rather have it repaired by an expert. Check the mains supply cable regularly for damage.
• For safety reasons a broken or damaged mains lead may only be replaced by an equivalent lead from the manufacturer, our customer service department or a similar qualified person.
• If the device is not used for a longer period, remove the plug connector from the plug socket or take out the batteries.

These symbols may be found on the machine and are intended to indicate the following:

The lightning symbol should advise the user of parts in the inside of the device which carry dangerously high voltage levels.

The symbol with an exclamation mark should advise the user of important operation or maintenance instructions in the accompanying documentation.

Devices bearing this symbol work with a „class 1 laser“ for tracing the CD. The built-in safety switches should prevent the user being exposed to dangerous laser light, which is invisible to the human eye, when the CD compartment is opened.

Under no circumstances should these safety switches be bypassed or manipulated, as this could result in a danger of exposure to the laser light.

Children and Frail Individuals

- In order to ensure your children's safety, please keep all packaging (plastic bags, boxes, polystyrene etc.) out of their reach.

Warning! Do not allow small children to play with the foil as there is a danger of suffocation!

- In order to protect children or frail individuals from the hazards of electrical equipment, please ensure that this device

is only used under supervision. This device is not a toy. Do not allow small children to play with it.

Start-up of the device/Introduction

• Read the operating instructions thoroughly before the start-up!
• Select an appropriate location for the device and loudspeakers. An example of an appropriate location is a flat (horizontal), dry, non-slip surface on which it can be operated without difficulty.
  • Make sure that the device is adequately ventilated!
• Connect the loudspeakers to the back of the music centre to the sockets market „SPEAKER R and L“ (25).

General Operation

i NOTE:

Some keys are to be found both on the device itself and on the remote control. Keys with the same designation have the same function.

Switch-off

The machine is switched off when the function selector switch (16) is turned to the OFF position. The POWER control lamp goes off. Unplug the device.

Volume

You can set the desired volume using the -/+ VOLUME control (2). Keep the corresponding button pressed down until the desired volume has been reached.

Infrared remote control

For operating the music centre from a distance of up to 5 metres without a lead. If the range of the remote control is reduced, the batteries have to be replaced. During operation ensure that there is nothing blocking the direct line between the remote control and the sensor (14) on the machine.

USB Connexion (19)

This device has been developed in accordance with the latest technical developments in the USB field. Unfortunately the large number of different types of USB storage media on offer today makes it impossible to guarantee full compatibility with all USB storage media. For this reason there may be problems in rare cases with playing back from USB storage media. This is not a malfunction of the device.

1. Turn the function selector switch (16) to the CD/USB/SD position.
2. Connect a USB storage medium.
3. Press the SOURCE button (3/5). The letters "appear in the display. The device is now in USB mode. After a few seconds the total number of folders and songs/tracks is shown in the display.
4. Press ▶II (7/3) to play back the music data.
5. For operating instructions please see the section "Playing CDs/MP3s".
6. If the USB connection is no longer required, press the SOURCE button twice (3/5) button twice. The word CD appears in the display. The device is now in CD/MP3 mode.

CAUTION:

Before you remove the USB storage medium, turn the function selector switch (16) to TUNER.

SD/MMC Card Slot (18)

1. If you would like to play back data on an SD/MMC card, insert it into the appropriate opening.
2. Press the SD/MMC card into the opening provided until it clicks into place.
3. Turn the function selector switch (16) to the CD/USB/SD position.
4. Press the SOURCE button twice (3/5). The letters „” appear in the display. The device is now in SD/MMC mode. After a few seconds the total number of folders and songs/tracks is shown in the display.
5. Press ▶ II (7/3) to play back the music data.
6. For operating instructions please see the section "Playing CDs/MP3s".

8. Press the SD/MMC card again to remove it.

Listening to the Radio

1. Turn the function selector switch (16) to the TUNER position.
2. Select the desired frequency band with the band selection switch (15).
3. Tune in the desired station with the station adjustment knob TUNING (12).
4. The FM ST control lamp (10) only lights up when you have selected FM stereo and the station is being received in stereo quality. If reception is too weak and there is noise on the station being received, this lamp will flicker. Try to improve reception by turning and bending or twisting and altering the length of the antenna (24). Where reception is bad we recommend switching to FM (Mono).
5. An aerial is integrated into the device for the reception of AM stations. The machine can be aligned to the station by turning it. In this frequency band programs are transmitted in "mono" only.

$$ \begin{array}{r l} \text { Medium Wave } & = \text { AM (Mono) }; \ \text { VHF (Stereo) } & = \text { FM ST }; \text { VHF } = \text { FM } \end{array} $$

Using the Record Player

1. Push the function selection switch (16) to PHONO.
2. Open the hood (33) by pulling the lid on the front upwards.
3. Place a record on the turntable. If you are using a 45 rpm single, first place the adapter (puck) (26) on the central spindle.
4. Release the catch on the pick-up arm support (29) and remove the stylus protector.
5. Select the appropriate speed with the speed selection switch (28).
6. Use the pick-up lever (27) to raise the pick-up. Guide the pick-up over the outer edge of the record with the help of the guide lever (30). The turntable begins to rotate automatically. Use the pick-up lever again to lower the pick-up.
7. AUTO STOP ON/OFF switch (22): At the end of the record the turntable stops rotating automatically if you have turned the AUTO STOP ON/OFF switch on the back of the device to „ON“.

i NOTE:

With some records it is possible that the turntable stops rotating before the end of the record is reached as the switch off end is located outside the radius. In this case turn the AUTO STOP ON/OFF switch to „OFF“. With the setting the turntable continues to turn when the pick-up is still on the pick-up arm support.

1. When you have fi nished listening to records place the pick-up arm carefully on the support, lock the catch and replace the stylus protector.
