INSTALLING THE REMOTE CONTROL BATTERIES
1. Open the battery compartment cover of the remote control unit by sliding the cover downward,
as shown.
2. Insert two (2) ‘AA’ sized batteries, not included, into the battery compartment, following the
diagram inside the compartment. If the batteries are inserted incorrectly, the remote control
will not work.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.
Note: Always use alkaline batteries for longest life and best performance.
CONNECTING THE POWER CORD
After you have connected the speakers, the AM and FM antennas and any external audio sources,
you are now ready to connect the unit to your AC power supply.
Unwind the AC cord to its full length and insert the smaller end into the AC socket on the back panel
of the main unit. Note that the AC socket and the small end of the AC cord have one rounded end
and one flat end. The cord can only fit into the AC socket one way. Do not try to force the plug into
the AC socket. If it does not enter the socket easily, turn the plug over and reinsert. Make sure that
the plug is inserted into the socket as far as it will go. A loose connection can result in intermittent
operation or a loss of power to the system.
Connect the AC plug to your 120V AC 60HZ polarized outlet. This unit has a polarized AC plug with
one blade wider than the other. This a safety feature for your protection. If the plug will not fit into
your outlet, do not try to defeat this safety feature by filing the wider blade to make it fit into your
outlet. If this plug does not fit your outlet, you probably have an outdated, non-polarized AC outlet.
You should have your outlet changed by a qualified, licensed electrician.
