in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified
technician to restore the product to its normal operation.
e. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the appliance.
f.
When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance - this
indicates a need for service.
13. LIGHTNING
23. HEAT
The product should be situated away from heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.
24. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER
To protect your product from a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall
outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent
damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.
14. POWER LINES
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention
to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper
grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be
connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point
of cable entry as practical.
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it
can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside
antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching
such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

PREPARATION FOR USE
Unpacking and Setup
•
Carefully remove the unit from the display carton and remove all packing material from the unit itself.
•
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 by 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 cord and extend it to its full length. Insert the small end of
the AC cord into the AC power jack on the rear of the unit. Insert the other
end of the AC cord into any convenient 120V 60Hz household outlet.
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.
Battery Installation
To use this unit with battery power, remove the battery compartment on the bottom of the unit by sliding it
towards the rear of the unit and lifting the battery door off. Insert eight (8) ‘C’ size batteries following the
diagram in the compartment.

MAKING A TAPE RECORDING
The tape recorder in this system 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
or the Bass Boost during a tape recording, as these controls have no effect on the material being recorded
onto the tape.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
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.
To record on a tape in which the tab has been
broken, place a piece of adhesive tape over that
area.
NOTE: When a tab is broken out, the record
button cannot be depressed.
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 cassette, it should be removed before inserting the cassette. Place a pencil in one
of the hubs and rotate it 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.
• 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.
Z
• 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.
NOTE: Never use metal objects on or near the tape heads. Do not allow any cleaning material to fall into the
tape assembly.
