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.  
Power Sources  
This portable audio system is designed to operate on either 120V AC 60Hz house current or 12V DC, using  
eight (8) ‘C’ batteries, 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.  
AC Operation  
Unwind the AC power cord and extend it to its full length. Insert the small end 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 60Hz household outlet.  
AC Outlet  
AC Plug  
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.

Hints for Better Reception  
FM - Make sure that the telescopic FM Rod Antenna is raised and extended to its full length. You may have  
to vary the direction of the antenna to find the strongest signal for each FM station.  
AM - The AM ferrite bar antenna is located inside the unit. It may be necessary to turn the unit slightly so  
that the internal antenna is pointing in the direction of the AM transmitter. You may have to experiment to  
find the position that provides the strongest reception for each of your favorite AM stations.

MAKING A TAPE RECORDING  
The tape recorder in this unit allows you to make direct recordings from the radio or CD player to a blank  
cassette in the tape compartment. An automatic recording volume level control (ALC) circuit will automatically  
control the volume level of your recordings to prevent distortion. You may change the settings of the VOLUME  
control or the BASS BOOST button during a tape recording, as these controls have no effect on the material  
being recorded onto the tape.

CASSETTE TAPES  
SAFEGUARD AGAINST ACCIDENTAL ERASURE  
When a new recording is made, any program  
material previously recorded is automatically  
erased and only the new recording remains. To  
safeguard valuable recordings from being erased  
accidentally, the cassette and the deck are  
equipped with a special device.  
On the back of the cassette there is an erase  
prevention tab on each side. To prevent  
accidental erasing, break out these tabs with a  
screwdriver. If only one side of the tape is to be  
protected, break out the tab on the left side with  
the side desired facing you.

Cover with tape to record again  
CASSETTE TAPE RECOMMENDATIONS  
Standard tape lengths have 15 (C-30), 30 (C-60) and 45 (C-90) minutes of recording time on each side.  
Longer length tapes of 60 (C-120) minutes of recording time on each side are not recommended. Use only  
high quality tapes. If a problem develops, check the unit first with another cassette to determine if the  
problem is with the cassette, and not with the unit.  
If there is any slack in the tape in the cassette, it should be removed before inserting the cassette. Place a  
pencil in one of the hubs and rotate clockwise until all slack is taken up.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
Caring for Compact Discs  
• Treat the compact disc carefully. Handle the compact disc  
only by its edges. Never allow your fingers to come in contact  
with the shiny, unprinted side of the compact disc.  
• Do not attach adhesive tape, stickers, etc. to the compact  
disc label.  
• Clean the compact disc periodically with a soft, lint-free, dry  
cloth. Never use detergents or abrasive cleaners to clean  
the compact disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.  
• If a compact disc skips or gets stuck on a section of the compact disc, it is probably dirty or damaged (scratched).  
• When cleaning the compact disc, wipe in straight lines from the center of the compact disc to the outer  
edge of the compact disc. Never wipe in circular motions.  
Z
• This unit is designed to play only compact discs bearing the identification logo as shown here.  
Other compact discs may not conform to the CD standard and may not play properly.  
• Compact discs should be stored in their cases after each use to avoid damage.  
• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, high temperatures, or dust, etc. Prolonged  
exposure or extreme temperatures can warp the compact disc.  
• Do not stick or write anything on either side of the compact disc. Sharp writing instruments, or the ink may  
damage the surface.  
Cleaning the unit  
• To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power source when cleaning.  
• The finish on your unit may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other furniture. Use caution  
when cleaning and wiping the plastic parts.  
• Mild soap and a damp cloth may be used on the front panel.  
• Periodic cleaning of the tape heads, capstan and pinch roller is necessary to maintain good sound  
reproduction. Clean them after every 100 hours of use or less if playback has deteriorated. Use a cotton  
swab moistened with head cleaning solution or isopropyl alcohol, then wipe dry with another swab.
