Read these instructions thoroughly before using the appliance for the first time and follow the
safety instructions.
This appliance should only be used as designated and described in these instructions.
Please keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference. If you pass on this device to a
third party, please include these instructions.
Intended use
This appliance is intended to play audio data that has been stored on iPod-compliant playback devices.
Safety
• Do not subject the device to drops or splashes of water and do not place any vessels filled with water, such
as vases, on the device. Water penetrating the device can impair its electrical safety.
• If the plug, cable or appliance is damaged, immediately remove the plug from the power supply.
• The appliance is only designed for private use and not for operation in a heavy industry company.
• If the device is taken from a cold to a warm location, condensation may form in the device. Wait a few
hours before operating the device.
Children
• This device is not intended to be used by people (including children) with restricted physical, sensory or
intellectual abilities or with a lack of experience and/or knowledge, unless they are being supervised by an
individual responsible for their safety or receive instructions from this individual how the device is to be
used. Children should be supervised in order to ensure that they do not play with the device.
• Keep the appliance and its accessories out of reach of children.
• Keep plastic packaging out of the reach of children. It may cause suffocation.
Power supply
• Only connect the unit to a power point (230 V ~ 50 Hz) that is easy to reach and is close to the place where
you have set the unit up. The power socket must be freely accessible so that you can unplug the device
quickly, if necessary.
• Always disconnect the appliance from the mains after use and before cleaning it.
• To disconnect the appliance from the mains, always pull on the plug rather than on the cable.
• If the plug, power line or the device is damaged or if liquids or foreign bodies enter the device, remove the
plug immediately from the socket.
Point of use / Intended environment
• In the first hours of operation, new devices may emit a typical, unavoidable but completely harmless smell,
which will decline increasingly in the course of time. We recommend you to ventilate the room regularly,
in order to counteract the formation of the smell. During the development of this product, we have made
sure that the applicable limits are clearly fallen below.
• Place and operate all components on a stable, level and vibration-free base to prevent the appliance
from falling over.
• Make sure that no direct heat sources (e.g. heaters) could affect the unit.
• Do not place any open sources of fire (candles or similar objects) on the device.
• Do not place any objects on the cable as they could be damaged.
• Only use the appliance in residential or similar rooms.
Electromagnetic compatibility
• Keep the appliance at a distance of at least one metre from high frequencies and magnetic sources of
interference (television, other loudspeaker boxes, mobile and cordless telephones etc.) to avoid
malfunctions.
• Only use the accessories supplied.

Batteries and Proper Treatment
Batteries may contain combustible materials. By misuse, this may cause battery leakage, heat, explosion or
ignition, bringing about injury or damage to the device.

immediately and consult a doctor.
• Do not expose batteries to strong impact by dropping or throwing the batteries.
• Do not reverse the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals to avoid short-circuit.
• Remove the used batteries promptly from the device.
• Remove the batteries from your device if it is not to be used for a long period.
• Replace all batteries with new batteries of the same type at the same time.
