PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE!!
This system 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.

GETTING STARTED
SPEAKER CONNECTION
1. Insert the speaker cable ends (exposed wires) into the terminals located on the back
of the main unit by pushing down the lever of the left speaker terminal and then the
right speaker terminal
2. Connect the left speaker to the left speaker terminals with the red wire to L+ and the
black wire to L -.
3. Connect the right speaker to the right speaker terminals with the red wire to R+ and
the black wire to R -.
NOTE:
Make sure that the power is turned off when connecting or disconnecting the speakers.
Make sure that the speakers are connected to the correct terminals.
CONNECTING THE AC POWER CORD
After connecting the speakers unwind the AC power cord fully and connect it to any convenient
household 120V~ 60Hz AC outlet
NOTE:
The product is designed to operate on normal 120V~ 60Hz AC
only. Connecting this system to any other power supply could
result in damage to the unit which is not covered by your
warranty. You will noted that this system is equipped with a
polarized AC power plug having one blade wider than the other.
This is a safety feature.
If this plug does not fit into your existing AC outlet, do not try to defeat this safety feature by filling
the wide blade to make it fit into your outlet. If this plug will not fit into your outlet, you probably
have an outdated non-polarized AC outlet. You should have your outlet changed by a qualified
licensed electrician.

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 turn off the power by switching the POWER ON/OFF switch to “OFF” position
and wait for three minutes, then turn the power ON again.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Do not subject the unit to excessive force, shock, dust or extreme temperature.
2. Do not tamper the internal components of the unit.
3. Clean your unit with a dry cloth. Solvent or detergent should never be used.
4. Avoid leaving your unit in direct sunlight or in hot, humid or dusty places.
5. Keep your unit away from heating appliances and sources of electrical noise such as
fluorescent lamps or motors.
6. Always clean the outside of the cabinet thoroughly if it becomes wet with moisture or water
splashes. This will help to protect the internal parts of the unit from entry of water and possible
moisture damage.
CASSETTE CARE
Two common causes of trouble experienced when using cassettes are:
1) Tape Jamming – Leading to uneven speed in playback, and
2) Tape Tangling – Where the tape wraps itself around ital parts of the mechanism.
To reduce the likelihood of these problems occurring, the following
precautions should be observed:
Check that there are no loose layers of tape visible through the
cassette center window (see Fig. 1). Take up any loose layers,
using a pencil or hexagonal barrelled ballpoint pen, before
inserting the cassette into the machine (see Fig.2)
If the cassette feels tight while performing operation shown (see Fig.2), the tape may be
jamming due to ridges formed in the winding of the tape (visible
through the center window). These may be removed, in most
cases, by fast winding of the cassette from one end to the other
and back again.
Use only well-known brands of tape. Avoid use of C-120
cassettes.
Furthermore, do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, dust or oil,
and do not touch the tape surfaces.

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).
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.
