PREPARATION FOR USE

Unpacking and Setup

•Carefully remove the unit from the display carton and remove all packing material from the unit itself.

•Remove any descriptive labels that may be found on either the front or top cabinet of the unit. Do not remove any labels located on either the back or bottom cabinet of the unit.

•The detachable AC power cord is packed in the carton separately from the unit. Make sure that the AC power cord is not accidentally discarded with the carton or packing material.

•Press the CD Door OPEN/CLOSE area to open the CD compartment door. There is a white card in the CD compartment which is intended to prevent the CD pickup from moving during shipment of the product. Remove this card from the CD compartment before use.

•When opening the CD compartment door, make sure the carrying handle is folded completely down.

Power Sources

This portable audio system is designed to operate on either 120V AC 60Hz house current or 12V DC, using 8 ‘C’ batteries (UM-2), not included. Attempting to operate this unit from any other power source may cause damage to the unit, which is not covered by your warranty.

Unwind the AC power cord and extend it to its full length. Insert the small nd of the AC power cord into the

AC socket on the back cabinet of the unit. Insert the other end of the AC power cord into any convenient

120V 60 Hz household outlet.

ACOutlet

Please note that this unit is equipped with a polarized AC plug which has one blade wider than the other. This is a safety feature to reduce the likelihood of electric shock. This polarized AC plug will only fit in a polarized AC outlet. If you find that you cannot insert this plug into your outlet, you may have an obsolete non-polarized outlet. Please do not try to defeat this safety feature by using a non-polarized adapter or by filing the wider blade to make it fit into your outlet. If this plug does not fit into your outlet, you should contact a qualified licensed electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.
