BATTERY INSTALLATION

Insert 2 pcs ‘AAA’ size (Alkaline) batteries (not included) into the battery compartment of the remote controller.

Be sure to observe the polarity markings which are engraved inside the battery compartment, then close the cover.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

When the batteries become too weak, the operating distance of the remote controller is greatly reduced and you will need to replace the batteries.

NOTES:

• To maintain the accuracy and long life of the transmitter, do not press two or more buttons simultaneously.

• If the remote control is not to be used for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent possible damage through leaking batteries.

• Do not mix different types of batteries, or old batteries with new ones.

USING THE REMOTE CONTROLLER CORRECTLY

•

Point the remote controller at the Remote Sensor.

•

The functions of the buttons on the remote control are the same as the corresponding controls on the main unit.

•

•

When there is a strong ambient light source, the performance of the infrared

Remote Sensor may be degraded, causing unreliable operation.

The maximum effective distance for remote control operation is about 15 feet.

DISC ERRORS

• This compact disc player has built-in error compensation circuits to correct for minor defects in a disc. There are limits, however, to the amount of correction available.

• In some cases, the CD player may skip some tracks, or parts of tracks, on a disc during disc play. This problem may be caused by defects (such as scratches) in the disc being played, which are too large for the error compensation circuits to handle. If you encounter this problem, check the CD player's operation as follows, before having the unit serviced:

Play a new disc. If the CD player operates normally, the skipping problem is probably due to a defective disc.

TO STOP A CD BEFORE THE DISC ENDS

1.) Press the STOP button. Disc play will stop, and the display will show the total number of tracks.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

COMPACT DISC CARE

• To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the centre 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. 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 CABINETS

• If the cabinets become dusty wipe them with a soft dry dust cloth. Do not use any wax or polish sprays on the cabinets.

• 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.

THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, BUT YOU MAY ALSO HAVE

APPLY TO YOU.
