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 similary 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

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.

• Read the operating instructions thoroughly before the start-up!
• Select an appropriate location for the device, e.g. a dry, flat, non-slip surface on which the device can be easily operated.
• Make sure that the device is adequately ventilated!
• Connect the loudspeakers to the back of the music centre to the sockets market „Speaker RIGHT and LEFT".
• Insert the plug into a properly installed 230V , 50Hz power socket. Please ensure that the mains voltage corresponds to the information on the type plate.
• The POWER (1) control lamp shows the function.

i NOTE:

The lithium cell in the battery compartment of the remote control has been secured for transport with a foil. This prolongs the lifetime of the battery. Before initial use please remove this foil so that the remote control is ready for operation.

Inserting the Batteries

The battery of the remote control is a long-life lithium cell. If the range of the remote control is reduced during use, please proceed as follows:

• Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote control.
• Replace the cell by a battery of the same type (CR 2025).
  Ensure correct polarity.
• Then close the battery lid.

If the remote control is not used for a prolonged period, remove the batteries in order to prevent battery acid leaking.

CAUTION:

Batteries are not to be disposed of together with domestic wastes. Disposc of the used batteries at the relevant collection bin or at your dealer's.

WARNING:

Do not expose the batteries to high temperatures or direct sunlight. Never throw batteries into the fire. There is a danger of explosion!

NOTES ON HANDLING BATTERIES

• Keep batteries away from children. They are not a toy!
• Never throw batteries into a fire or immerse in water.
• When inserting a battery, ensure the correct polarity.
• Do not open the batteries by force.
• Avoid contact with metallic objects. (Rings, nails, screws et cetera.) There is a danger of short-circuiting!
• As a result of a short-circuit batteries may heat up considerably or even catch fire. This may result in burns.
• For your own safety the battery poles should be covered with adhesive strips during transport.
• If a battery leaks do not rub the liquid into your eyes or mucous membranes. If hands come into contact with the liquid they should be washed thoroughly and eyes rinsed out with clear water; if symptoms persist please consult a doctor.

BBS switch (22)

This is used to amplify the bass sounds. The switch can be in one of two positions,

$$ = \text {o n}, \quad \text {f f}. $$

Volume

The desired volume can be sent using the VOLUME MIN/MAX regulator (11).

POWER (24)

Turn the device on or off. The POWER (1) control lamp shows the function.

Listening to the Radio

1. Turn the function selector switch (21) to the RADIO position.
