General safety 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.

Start-up of the device

• Remove any transport safety equipment on the CD and cassette sections.
• Select an appropriate location for the device, e.g. a dry, flat, non-slip surface on which the device can be easily operated.
• Connect the loudspeakers to the back of the music centre to the sockets market SPEAKERS R and L" (28).
• Insert the plug into a properly installed 230 V, 50 Hz power socket. Please ensure that the mains voltage corresponds to the information on the type plate.

Remote Control Batteries

(not supplied)

• Open the lid of the battery compartment on the back of the remote control.
• Insert 2 microbatteries of type LR 3 "AAA" 1.5V. Ensure that the polarity is correct (see the floor of the battery compartment)!
• Close the battery compartment.

GB

• If the remote control is not used for a prolonged period, remove the batteries in order to prevent battery acid leaking.
  • Always replace the complete set of batteries. Do not replace just one battery.

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

Never throw batteries into the fire.

General Operation

Volume

The desired volume can be sent using the VOLUME MAX/MIN regulator (9).

Switch-off

The machine is turned off when the function selector switch (13) is in the TAPE position and all tape functions are switched off. Unplug the device.

PHONES

Insert the plug of a set of headphones into the headphone socket (27) – the loudspeakers are „muted“. If your headphone plug does not fit, please use a suitable adapter.

Loudspeakers

Connect the loudspeakers to the back (28) of the machine.

Infra-red remote control

For cordless remote control of the device from a distance of up to 5 metres. If this range becomes shorter, the batteries need to be changed. When operating the remote control ensure that there is nothing blocking the view between the remote control unit and the infra-red receiver on the music centre.

Listening to the Radio

1. Turn the function selector switch (13) to the TUNER position.
2. With the band selector switch (15) you can select the desired frequency band.

$$ \text { VHF (Stereo) } = \text { FM ST VHF } = \text { FM Medium Wave } = \text { AM (Mono) } $$

1. Tune into the desired station using the TUNING regulator (16).

2. The stereo control light (18) beneath the adjustment knob only lights up when you have selected VHF stereo and receive the station in stereo quality. If reception is too weak and the station received crackles, it may be that this light will not come on. Try to improve reception by turning and bending or twisting and altering the length of the antenna. If no improvement can be achieved we recommend switching to VHF-mono.

3. 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.

1. Always press the ■/▲ stop/eject key when changing the direction or stopping the tape. This prevents damage to the machine and the tape.

2. If the ▪/▲ stop/eject button is pressed again the flap of the cassette compartment opens.

3. In order to interrupt playback briefly, press the II pause button (26). Pressing again continues playback.

Recording Cassettes

1. Insert an audiocassette with the side on which you wish to record facing forwards (full reel on the left). Ensure that the cassette is not copy-protected (the copy protection tab on the top narrow side of the cassette must not have been removed).
2. Select the source from which you wish to record with the function switch (13) and then start playback from this source if necessary. The sound source which you are listening to is the one from which the recording is made. The recording level is controlled automatically. Changing the volume does not change the recording.
3. Please press the ● record button (21) (the ▶ playback button is automatically pressed down at the same time). Recording now begins. All previous recordings are automatically erased.
