OWNER’S MANUAL

JiMS-198i

(iPod/iPhone Not Included)

PLEASE READ THIS OPERATING MANUAL COMPLETELY BEFORE

OPERATING THIS UNIT AND RETAIN THIS BOOKLET FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

DEAR JENSEN® CUSTOMER

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries

Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.

Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

To establish a safe level:

• Start your volume control at a low setting.

• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without

distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level:

• Set the dial and leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future.

After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

We Want You Listening For a Lifetime:

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment.

Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.

Customer's Record:

The serial number of this product is found on its bottom cover. You should note the serial number of this unit in the space provided as a permanent record of your purchase to aid in identification in the event of theft of loss.

tuner sensitivity.

2. The AM receiver uses an external AM loop antenna. If the AM reception is weak,

slightly rotating or re-positioning the loop antenna will usually improve the AM reception.

3. Automatic tuning depends on the signal strength of the broadcasting station, so weak

stations may be skipped. You can manually tune to find the weak stations if a station

gets skipped. With strong signals, the tuner may stop before it reaches the actual

broadcast frequency, so you may need to manually tune for the best reception.
