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).

Operation of the CD micro system

General operation

To switch the unit on move the FUNCTION switch from the TAPE (OFF) position to the

position of the desired signal source.

“CD/MP3” for CD and MP3 disc playback, or

“FM” for FM radio reception, or

“AM” for AM radio reception, or

"TAPE (OFF)” for cassette operation.

The blue bar on the front panel will be lit and the unit is in operation.

Setting the volume

With the VOLUME controller on the front panel of the unit you can set the volume as

requested. Turn the controller clockwise to increase the volume. Turn it counter clockwise

to lower the volume.

Headphone operation

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.

How to handle CDs

Only touch CDs at the edges to avoid finger prints and dirt.

Clean dirty CDs carefully with a soft non-fluff cloth by wiping from

the middle to the outside. Avoid circulating movements! Do not

the antenna to find the best antenna orientation.

For AM reception the device has a built-in antenna. If AM reception is noisy or distorted,

please turn the unit to find the best orientation.

Use the TUNING control to select the broadcasting stations. Use the dial scale to

orientate yourself.

When receiving FM Stereo transmission, the “FM ST.” indication is activated.

Cassette operation

Do not use C-120 tapes or very cheap tapes. This may lead to malfunctioning and tape

spillage. Before inserting a tape please ensure that the tape reels run smoothly and that

there are no tape loops. Otherwise this might result in tape spillage.

The tapes are equipped with plastic clips which can be removed to secure recordings against

re-recording or erasing (see Fig.). The resulting deepening may be covered with adhesive

tape to re-record the tape.

outside. The full tape reel has to be on the left side. Any previous recordings will be

overwritten. Please keep in mind that the first centimetres of the tape material are not

recordable.

You need not pay attention on the level control – the recording automatics will regulate the

best possible level control. The volume control has therefore no impact on the recording.

Select the sound source you would like to record (CD or RADIO). Prepare the CD

component or the radio for playing in accordance with these instruction.

Press the pause button, then the record button. The 4 button will also click into

place. In order to start recording, press the button again to release it.

The button discontinues the recording.

Automatic Tape Stop

When in the process of recording or playback the end of the tape is reached, the tape stops

automatically and the relevant button is released.

Cleaning

In order to avoid tape transport errors you should

regularly clean the parts of the cassette recorder

which have contact with the tape. Either use a

cleaning cassette available from specialized dealers

or clean the parts shown below manually. For this,

you will need a cotton bud soaked in spirit or a
