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.

functions on the auxiliary device as usual.

to adjust the volume control of this system. If the Headphone Jack of your  
external device is connected, then you may need to adjust both the volume  
control of your external device and the volume control of this system to find the  
most desirable volume setting.  
(2) Press the POWER  
button to turn off the system when you finish listening.  
Don't forget to switch off the power on your external device as well.  
RESETTING  
If the system does not respond or has erratic operation, you may have  
experienced an electrostatic discharge (ESD) or a power surge that triggered the  
internal computer to shut down automatically. If this occurs, simply disconnect the  
main power, wait one minute and reconnect the main power again.  
Note:  
Disconnecting the power will reset the internal computer after a power surge, but  
it will also erase all of the settings. After turning “ON” the unit, you will need to  
reset the settings again.  
CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
1. Avoid operating your unit under direct sunlight or in hot, humid or dusty places.  
2. Keep your unit away from heating appliances and sources of electrical noise such as  
fluorescent lamps or motors.  
3. For better Clock Display clarity, avoid operating the unit under direct sunlight or in  
strong room illumination.  
4. Unplug the unit from the electrical power outlet immediately in case of malfunction.  
COMPACT DISC CARE  
Handle the disc only by its edges. Never allow your fingers to come in contact with  
the shiny, unprinted side of the disc.  
Do not attach adhesive tape, stickers etc., to the disc label.  
Clean the disc periodically with soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Never use detergents or  
adhesive cleaners to clean the disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.  
If disc skips or gets stuck on a section of the disc, it is probably dirty or damaged  
(scratched).  
17  
 
When cleaning the disc, wipe in straight lines from the center of the disc to the edge  
of the disc. Never wipe in circular motions.  
To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center 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.  
CLEANING THE UNIT  
To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power source when  
cleaning.  
The finish on the unit may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other  
furniture, Use caution when cleaning and wiping the plastic parts.  
If the cabinet becomes dusty wipe it with a soft dry dust cloth. Do not use any wax or  
polish sprays on the cabinet.  
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 damage the finish of your unit.  
CAUTION: Never allow any water or other liquids to get inside the unit while  
cleaning.
