PREPARATION FOR USE  
Unpacking and Set Up  
• Carefully remove the unit from the display carton. Remove all the packing material  
from the unit and remove any small strips of tape that may have been used to  
prevent the CD door from opening in transit.  
• Unwind the AC power cord and extend it to its full length.  
• Unwind the FM antenna wire and extend it to its full length.  
• This unit was shipped with a dummy CD transit card in the CD player. This  
dummy CD prevents the laser pick up from moving during shipment. This card  
must be removed before you can insert your own CDs. Open the CD door,  
remove the transit card and discard it.  
• Place the unit on a flat, level surface such as a table, desk, counter, shelf, etc,  
convenient to a 120V 60 Hz AC outlet, out of direct sunlight, and away from  
sources of excess heat, dust, moisture, or strong magnet fields.  
Battery Back Up System  
This model includes a battery back up circuit that will maintain the clock and alarm  
settings in the event of a temporary power interruption. The battery back up system  
requires one 9-Volt battery, not included. The battery compartment is located on  
the bottom of the cabinet.  
1.) Press the battery door-locking tab in the direction of the arrow and remove the  
battery door.

2.) Connect a fresh 9-Volt alkaline battery to the battery terminal in the battery  
compartment. It can only be connected one way.  
3.) Replace the battery door.  
If the power is interrupted the display will go ‘Off’ and the radio will not work. However  
the battery will maintain the clock and alarm settings in memory. When the power  
is restored the display will come on again and the clock and alarm settings will be  
correct.  
The life of the back up battery will depend on the frequency and length of the  
power interruptions that you experience.  
For best results we suggest you install a fresh battery every 9 to 12 months. Always  
use a well-known brand of alkaline battery.

Power Source  
This radio is designed to operate on 120V 60Hz AC only. Attempting to operate  
this radio on any other power source could cause damage to the unit and such  
damage is not covered by your warranty.  
Make sure the radio is connected to an AC outlet that is always “live”. Do not  
connect the radio to an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch.  
Note: The system has polarized AC plug with one wide blade and one narrow  
blade. The plug will only fit into matching polarized AC outlets.  
This is a safety feature to reduce the possibility of electric shock. If the plug will not  
fit in yourAC outlet, you probably have an outdated non-polarized outlet. You should  
have your outdated outlet changed by a qualified, licensed electrician.  
Do not file the wide blade on the plug, or  
use an adapter to make the plug fit into  
your outlet. This defeats the safety  
feature and could expose you to electric  
shock.

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.

Hints For Better Reception  
FM – The FM lead wire antenna on the back panel should be extended to its full  
length. You may also have to vary the direction of this antenna until you find the  
position that provides the best reception.  
AM – The AM ferrite bar antenna is inside the cabinet. If the AM reception is  
unsatisfactory try rotating the entire cabinet slightly until the internal antenna picks  
up the strongest signal.

the blank media you are using. 100% playability cannot be guaranteed. This is not  
an indication of a problem with the player.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
Compact Disc Care  
• To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case  
and lift the disc out, 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. Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the outside of  
the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will have absolutely no effect on  
reproduction quality.  
• Clean the disc periodically with a soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Never use detergents  
or abrasive cleaners to clean the disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.  
• Never write on or affix labels to the surface of compact discs.

Care Of The Cabinet  
• 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 mar the finish of your unit.  
Caution  
Never allow any water or other liquids to get inside the unit while cleaning.
