PREPARATION FOR USE
UNPACKING AND SET-UP
• Carefully remove the unit from the carton and remove all packing material from
the unit.
• Remove any labels or stickers which may be on the front or top of the set, but
do not remove any labels from the back or bottom.
• We suggest that you retain the original carton and packing materials in case it
ever becomes necessary to return your unit for service. This is the only sure
way to protect the unit from damage in transit.
• If you do dispose of the carton and packing materials, please do so properly.

POWER SOURCE
This system is designed to operate on 120V 60Hz AC house current . Connecting
this system to any other power supply could result in damage to the unit which is
not covered by your warranty.You will note that this system is equipped with a
polarized AC power plug having one blade wider than the other. This is a safety
feature. If this plug does not fit into your
existing AC outlet, do not try to defeat this
safety feature by filing the wide blade to
make it fit into your outlet. If this plug will
not fit into your outlet, you probably have
an out-dated non-polarized AC outlet. You
should have your outlet changed by a
qualified licensed electrician.
BATTERY ACTIVATION INFORMATION
There are two 3V lithium batteries pre-installed in your system. One is in the
remote control handset and the other is located in a small battery compartment
on the inside of the motorized CD door of the main unit. The battery in the CD
door provides back-up power for the clock and timer settings, and for the preset
station memories.
In order to insure that these batteries are ‘fresh’ when you purchase your system, we
have placed small flexible plastic ‘spacers’ between the batteries and the battery
terminals. These plastic ‘spacers’ prevent the batteries from making contact with
the battery terminals so no battery drain can occur.
