AM-FM Stereo Radio Compact Disc Player 

The Stereo system is wired directly to the batteries and is not controlled by any switches on 
the DC control panel.  The Stereo System can be turned ON or OFF by the “Select” button 
located in the middle of the faceplate.  A copy of the Operation Manual is in the 
“Electrical/Electronics” binder.  An iPod/MP3 type device can be plugged in using one of the 
ports at the lower right hand corner (“11 or 12”).  There is also a USB port at the same 
location.
