CONNECTING AN ADDITIONAL AUDIO SOURCE

If you have a VCR or other equipment, such as a camcorder or a TV that has line-level audio outputs, you can play the sound through your system. Use a cable with two phono jacks to connect the source’s left and right audio output jacks to the VCR/AUX L and R jacks on the back of the system.

CONNECTING POWER

To connect power, after all other con- nections are made, plug your system’s power cord into a standard AC outlet. The STANDBY indicator (above the BAND button at the top of the system) lights.

Caution: Your system’s power cord has a polarized plug (one blade is wid- er than the other). If you have difficulty inserting the plug into the outlet, do not force it. Turn the plug over and try again.

RESETTING THE CD CHANGER

If the CD changer does not work prop- erly, you might need to reset it by un- plugging the system’s power cord from the AC outlet. Wait at least 10 seconds, then plug the power cord back in.

Note: If you unplug the system, it saves all tuner memory settings for about a week.

INSTALLING BATTERIES IN THE REMOTE CONTROL

The remote control requires two AAA batteries (not supplied) for power. For the best performance and longest life, we recommend alkaline batteries, such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-555.

Caution: Always use fresh batteries of the required size and type.
