Dear Customer:  
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your  
musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your  
equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer  
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One  
that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion-and, most  
importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.  
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of  
sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against  
this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.  
To establish a safe level:  
• Start your volume control at a low setting.  
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.  
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:  
• Set the dial and leave it there.  
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all,  
we want you listening for a lifetime.  
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime  
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing  
damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the  
Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged  
exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

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.

INFORMATION ABOUT CD+G KARAOKE DISCS:  
CD+G Karaoke discs are designed specifically for playback in special CD players that include a  
CD+G decoder, such as this unit. These discs contain the lyrics to each song and the lyrics will  
appear on your TV screen, line by line, as the disc is playing. Usually the words on the screen will  
change color in time with the music to help you sing along at the proper tempo, even if you do not  
know the song.  
Some CD+G Karaoke discs have all of the songs recorded twice, first with music only, and then  
with music and vocals together. (This type of recording is called a “Multiplex” recording.) For  
example, if you purchase a CD+G disc containing four songs, tracks one through four may have  
the music only without vocals, and tracks five through eight might have the same four songs  
recorded with music on the left channel and the vocal tracks on the right channel.  
NOTE: For Multiplex recordings, make sure the BALANCE control is set to the center position so  
you can hear both the vocal and music tracks at an equal level.  
MICROPHONE FEEDBACK:  
“Feedback” is a howling or screeching sound that occurs when the microphone comes too close to  
the speaker(s). To avoid microphone feedback, keep the microphone as far away from the  
speaker(s) as the microphone cable will allow. If you must bring the microphone close to the  
speaker(s), such as when you are changing a disc or adjusting one of the other controls on the  
front of the unit, set the microphone ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.  
When watching a CD+G or watching the video from the VIDEO IN jack on the monitor screen, adjust the  
brightness, v-hold and contrast as follows  
BRIGHTNESS  
CONTRAST  
V-HOLD  
If the picture is too strong or too  
weak, rotate to adjust the contrast  
and clearly define the shades of  
blacks, grays and whites.  
If the picture is too light or too  
dark, rotate to adjust the  
brightness.  
If the picture moves up and down  
or rolls, rotate to adjust the  
vertical hold.

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 disc. Never wipe in circular motions.  
Z
• This unit is designed to play only compact discs bearing the identification logo as  
shown here. Other discs may not conform to the CD standard and may not play

the ink, may damage the surface.  
Cleaning the Unit
