Safety & maintenance 

information

• Place the set on a flat, hard and stable surface

so that the system does not tilt.

• Do not expose the set, batteries, CDs to

humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat caused
by heating equipment or direct sunlight.

• The apparatus shall not be exposed to drip-

ping or splashing.

• Adequate ventilation with a minimum gap of

15cm (6 inches) between the ventilation
holes and surrounding surfaces is necessary
to prevent heat build-up.

• Do not cover the ventilation openings with

items such as newspapers, table-cloths, cur-
tains, etc.

• No objects filled with liquids, such as vases,

shall be placed on the apparatus.

• No naked flame sources, such as lighted can-

dles, should be placed on the apparatus.

• The mechanical parts of the set contain self-

lubricating bearings and must not be oiled or
lubricated.

• To clean the set, use a dry cloth. Do not use

any cleaning agents containing alcohol, ammo-
nia, benzene or abrasives as these may harm
the housing.

• Excessive sound pressure from earphones

and headphones can cause hearing loss.

•  Battery shall not be exposed to excessive

heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.

, extend, incline and turn the telescopic

antenna for best reception. Reduce its length if
the signal is too strong.

• For 

MW

, the set uses a built-in antenna. Direct

this antenna for best reception by turning the
whole set.

Troubleshooting

If a fault occurs, first check the points listed below before taking the set for repair.
If you are unable to remedy a problem by following these hints, consult your dealer or service centre.

WARNING

:

Do not open the set as there is a risk of electric shock. Under no 
circumstances should you try to repair the set yourself, as this will invali-
date the guarantee.

Environmental information

All unnecessary packaging material has been omitted.The packaging can be
easily separated into three materials: cardboard, polystyrene and plastic.

Your set consists of materials which can be recycled if disassembled by a
specialized company. Please observe the local regulations regarding the
disposal of packaging, dead batteries and old equipment.

Disposal of your old product

Your product is designed and manufactured with high quality materials

and components, which can be recycled and reused.

When this crossed-out wheeled bin symbol is attached to

a product it means the product is covered by the 

European Directive 2002/96/EC.

Please inform yourself about the local separate collection system for electrical

and electronic products.

Please act according to your local rules and do not dispose of your old products

with your normal household waste.The correct disposal of your old product will

help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human

health.

Hearing Safety 

Listen at a moderate volume

.

• Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing. This product can produce sounds in

decibel ranges that may cause hearing loss for a normal person, even for exposure less than a

minute. The higher decibel ranges are offered for those that may have already experienced some

hearing loss.

• Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of

sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to

your hearing. To guard against this, set your volume to a safe level before your hearing adapts and

leave it there.

To establish a safe volume level:

• Set your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.

Listen for reasonable periods of time:

• Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally "safe" levels, can also cause hearing loss.
• Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate breaks.

Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your headphones.

• Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.
• Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.
• Do not turn up the volume so high that you can't hear what's around you.
• You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
• Do not use headphones while operating a motorized vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.; it may

create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.

Important notes for users in the U.K.

Mains plug

This apparatus is fitted with an approved 13 Amp plug.To change a fuse in this type of
plug proceed as follows:

1.

Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2.

Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 3 Amp, A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3.

Refit the fuse cover.

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an
appropriate plug fitted in its place. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a
value of 3 Amp. If a plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board
should not be greater than 3 Amp.

Note:The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard should it
be inserted into a 13 Amp socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

The wires in the mains lead are coloured with the following code: blue = neutral (N),
brown = live (L). As these colours may not correspond with the colour markings iden-
tifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

Connect the blue wire to the terminal marked N or coloured black.

Connect the brown wire to the terminal marked L or coloured red.

Do not connect either wire to the earth terminal in the plug, marked E (or e) or

coloured green (or green and yellow).
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the
sheath of the lead - not simply over the two wires.
