PREPARATION FOR USE
SPEAKER CONNECTION
1. Place the speakers in convenient locations on either side of the unit. Usually a
distance of five to eight feet between speakers provides the best stereo effect,
but this may vary depending on the size and acoustics of the room.
2. Locate the Speaker Jacks on the rear of the unit and connect the red wires to
the red (+) terminals and connect the black wires to the black (-) terminals.
3. To connect the speakers, press and hold the terminal down, insert the speaker
wire and release.
4. Pull lightly on the connection to make sure it is secure.
CAUTION: Only connect the speakers which are supplied with the unit. The use of any other or additional
speakers may cause damage to the unit. Never operate the unit without the speakers connected.
BATTERY OPERATION FOR THE REMOTE CONTROL
The battery compartment is located on the rear of the remote control.
• Remove the battery compartment door by pressing down on the tab and lifting the battery
compartment off.
• Insert two (2) AAA size batteries into the battery compartment as shown to the right. Be
sure to observe the polarity markings which are engraved inside the battery
compartment. If the batteries are inserted incorrectly, the remote control will not operate.
• Replace the battery compartment door.
AC CONNECTION
Unwind the AC cord and extend it to its full length. Insert the end of the AC
cord into any convenient 120V 60Hz household outlet.
Please note that this unit is equipped with a polarized AC plug which has one
blade wider than the other. This is a safety feature to reduce the likelihood of
electric shock. This polarized AC plug will only fit in a polarized AC outlet. If
you find that you cannot insert this plug into your outlet, you may have an
obsolete non-polarized outlet. Please do not try to defeat this safety feature by using a non-polarized
adapter or by filing the wider blade to make it fit into your outlet. If this plug does not fit into your outlet, you
should contact a qualified licensed electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
• Before moving or lifting the unit, make sure the power plug is disconnected from the power source.
• Do not move or lift the unit during playing/loading of a CD as this may cause malfunction to the CD
mechanism.
• If there is a power failure or the AC cord is disconnected, when the AC cord is connected again, the clock
will be reset ("12:00" will appear in the display) and you will need to set the clock again.
