Setting up the system
You can mount your new CD micro system on a plane and stable surface.
The stand of the unit should be located close to a properly connected power
socket. In order to ensure a sufficient ventilation, the device must not be
operated on soft surfaces (carpets or the like). Possible ventilation openings
of the devices must not be covered by newspapers, curtains etc.
The Remote Control
Take out the remote control handset from the package. Open the battery compartment.
Insert two batteries (1,5 V, size “AAA”). Please make sure the polarity matches the marks
inside the compartment. Otherwise the r/c will not work and may be damaged. Replace the
cover.
Should the r/c start to work unreliably replace both batteries. We recommend using alkaline
batteries. Please point the r/c towards the main unit when calling up functions. No obstacles
may stand in the way between r/c and infrared sensor.
If you won’t use the r/c for a week or longer, please remove the batteries from the
compartment, to prevent damage by leakage.
Batteries must not be disposed by ordinary refuse disposal. Please lead empty
batteries towards appropriate collecting points. Never throw batteries into fire.
Establish connections
1. Connect the cable of the speaker box to be set up to the right to the
SPEAKER output “R”. Connect the cable of the speaker box to be set up to
the left to the SPEAKER output “L”.
2. Connect the mains chord to a properly wired mains wall outlet (230V~/50Hz).

again to deactivate this function.
Switching off
To switch the unit off, move the FUNCTION switch to the „TAPE (OFF)” position. As this

not going to use the micro system for a longer period of time.
CD / MP3 operation
This device plays generally audio CDs as well as CD-R(W) media burnt with a PC. For MPEG
format bit rates from 8 to 320 kbps are supported. Due to the various types of blank CDs, PC
types, operating systems, burning software and methods, we cannot guarantee that every
burnt CD will be played immaculately. The device does not play CD-ROMs or DVD media.
You can also control the disc functions using the remote control.
If the device plays a MP3 disc, ESP lights up in the display and indicates, that playback will
be continued error-free even when the unit is exposed to light shock of vibration.
