Discs  
Discs which can be played on this unit:  
< CD-R and CD-RW discs are more sensitive to the effects of  
heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important  
that they are not stored in a location with direct sunlight and  
keep your discs away from sources of heat such as radiators  
or heat-generating electrical devices.  
• Conventional audio CDs bearing the COMPACT DISC  
DIGITAL AUDIO logo on the label:  
< Printable discs aren’t recommended because the label side  
might be sticky (or contain glue), which will damage the unit.  
• Properly finalized CD-R and CD-RW discs  
• MP3 CDs  
< Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do  
Note:  
not use any protective coating spray.  
< Depending on the quality of the disc and/or the condition of  
the recording, some CD-R/CD-RW discs may not be playable.  
< Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write information on  
the label side of a disc. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped  
pen, as this may cause damage to the recorded side of the  
disc.  
< Copy-protected discs and other discs that do not conform to  
the CD standard may not play back correctly in this player. If  
you use such discs in this unit, TEAC Corporation and its  
subsidiaries cannot be responsible for any consequences or  
guarantee the quality of reproduction. If you experience  
problems with such non-standard discs, you should contact  
the producers of the disc.  
< Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD  
stabilizers with this unit will damage the mechanisms and  
cause them to malfunction.  
< Do not use irregular shape CDs (octagonal, heart shaped,  
business card size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the unit:  
< Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label side up.  
(Compact discs can be played or recorded only on one side.)  
< To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the  
center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by  
the edges.  
< If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of any  
disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc, or contact  
the disc manufacturer directly.  
How to remove the disc  
How to hold the disc  
MP3 compatibility  
< File names of MP3 should be alphanumeric characters. This  
unit cannot display symbols and full-size or 2 bytes-wide  
characters (such as Japanese, Chinese, etc.) correctly. Also, be  
sure to use the file extension “.mp3”.  
< Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface from the  
center hole outward towards the outer edge with a soft, dry,  
lint-free cloth:  
< The disc must be finalized in order to play.  
< The CD-ROM must be ISO 9660 compatible.  
< Never use chemicals such as record (LP) sprays, antistatic  
sprays or fluids, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such  
chemicals will do irreparable damage to the disc’s plastic  
surface.  
< When more than 200 files or 50 folders are recorded on the  
disc, the unit might not be able to play it correctly.  
< The file must be mono or stereo MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3  
format, 44.1 or 48 kHz, fixed bit-rate.  
< Discs should be returned to their cases after each use to avoid  
dust and scratches that may eventually cause your disc to  
skip.  
< Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high  
temperatures for extended periods. Long exposure to high  
temperatures will warp the disc.  
< Do not play any disc that is warped, scratched, deformed or  
damaged. Playing such discs may cause irreparable harm to  
the playback mechanism.

SPEAKERS  
Position the antenna for the best sound.  
If you want, you can hook the AM antenna on a wall as  
shown below:  
Connect the left speaker’s plug to L, and the right speaker’s  
plug to R.  
< If not using the included speakers, make sure the speakers  
you use are at least 4 impedance.  
< Do not connect anything other than speakers to these  
terminals.

AC Power Cord  
Be sure to connect the power cord to an AC outlet which  
supplies the correct voltage.  
Hold the power plug when plugging or unplugging the  
power cord. Never pull or yank on the power cord.  
B
FM antenna  
While in FM mode, tune in an FM station and extend the  
lead to find the best position for reception. This antenna  
may need to be repositioned if you move your unit to a new

POWER switch of the Subwoofer  
Use this switch to turn the system on or off.  
FM Outdoor Antenna  
The equipment draws a nominal amount of power from  
the AC outlet even with its POWER switch in the OFF  
position.  
In an area where FM signals are weak, it will be necessary to  
use a 75-ohm unbalanced-type outdoor FM antenna using  
an optional (not supplied) matching transformer connected  
to an external antenna. Generally, a 3-element antenna will  
be sufficient; if you live in an area where the FM signals are  
particularly weak, it may be necessary to use one with 5 or  
more elements.  
< If the power switch of the subwoofer turned off, the  
settings kept in memory (clock, preset stations, timer  
setting) will be erased.  
To avoid loosing your settings, it is advisable to keep this  
switch ON when not in use.

points on the wall.  
3. Drill holes in the wall at the marked points.  
4. Screw the supplied long screws into the wall.  
Leave about 5 mm space between the screw’s head and the  
wall.  
< As a convenience, a set of tapered plastic anchors is supplied.  
If you chose to use these anchors, drill a pilot hole using a 6  
mm drill bit then tap the anchor into the pilot hole.  
Only use these anchors if they are appropriate for the  
materials onto which the unit is to be mounted. Consult your  
local hardware store if you are uncertain.  
5.Before going on, connect the speakers and the  
subwoofer using the supplied speaker cables (see page  
6-7).

Troubleshooting  
If you have problems with your system, look through this chart  
and see if you can solve the problem yourself before calling your  
dealer or TEAC service center.  
Tuner  
Cannot listen to any station, or signal is too weak.  
e Tune in the station properly.  
e Rotate the FM or AM antenna for the best reception  
position.  
General  
No power  
e Check the connection to the AC power supply. Check and  
make sure the AC source is not a switched outlet and that,  
if it is, the switch is turned on. Make sure there is power to  
the AC outlet by plugging another item such as a lamp or  
fan into the outlet.  
Though the broadcast is stereo, it sounds monaural.  
e Press the FM MODE button.  
If normal operation cannot be recovered, unplug the  
power cord from the outlet and plug it again.  
No sound from speakers.  
e Select the source by pressing the FUNCTION button.  
e Check the connection to the speakers.  
e Adjust the volume.  
e Pull out the headphone’s plug from the PHONES jack.  
e If “MUTING” is blinking, press the MUTING button.  
If the power switch of the subwoofer turned off, the  
settings kept in memory (clock, preset stations, timer  
setting) will be erased.  
The sound is noisy.  
e The unit is too close to a TV or similar appliances. Install the  
unit apart from them, or turn them off.  
Remote control doesn’t work.

e When the battery has run out, put in a new one.  
e Use remote control unit within the range (5 m) and point at  
the front panel.  
e Clear obstacles between the remote control unit and the  
main unit.  
Beware of condensation  
When the unit (or a disc) is moved from a cold to a warm  
place, or used after a sudden temperature change, there is a  
danger of condensation; vapor in the air could condense on  
the internal mechanism, making correct operation erratic or  
impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, leave the unit for  
one or two hours with the power turned on. The unit will  
stabilize at the temperature of its surroundings.  
e If a strong light is near the unit, turn it off.  
CD Player  
Will not play.  
e Load a disc with the playback side facing away.  
e If the disc is dirty, clean the surface of the disc.  
e A blank disc has been loaded. Load a prerecorded disc.  
e Depending on the disc, etc. it may not be possible to play  
back CD-R/RW discs. Try again with another disc.  
e You cannot play back unfinalized CD-R/RW discs. Finalize  
such a disc in a CD recorder and try again.  
Maintenance  
If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe with a soft cloth or  
use diluted mild liquid soap. Never spray liquid directly on this  
unit. Apply your cleaner to your cleaning cloth and wipe  
gently. Be sure to remove any excess completely. Do not use  
thinner, benzene or alcohol as they may damage the surface  
of the unit. Allow the surface of the unit to dry completely  
before using.  
Sound skips.  
e Place the unit on a stable place to avoid vibration and shock.  
e If the disc is dirty, clean the surface of the disc.  
e Don’t use scratched, damaged or warped discs.  
iPod Player

e Check the dock adapter.  
e Remove dust or obstacles from the Dock connector of the  
TD-X250i and the iPod, and insert the iPod again.

insert it again.  
e Software update may solve the problem. Visit the Apple  
website and download the latest iPod Software.
