POWER SUPPLY
Whenever convenient, use the power supply if you want to conserve battery life. Make sure you remove the plug from the set and wall socket before inserting batteries. Batteries (not included) Open the battery compartment and insert six batteries, type R-14, UM-2 or C-cells, (preferably alkaline) with the correct polarity as indicated by the "+" and "�" symbols inside the compartment. Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be disposed of properly. Incorrect use of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage and will corrode the compartment or cause the batteries to burst. Therefore: � Do not mix battery types: e.g. alkaline with carbon zinc. Only use batteries of the same type for the set. � When inserting new batteries, do not try to mix old batteries with the new ones. � Remove the batteries if the set is not to be used for a long time. Using AC Power 1 Check if the mains voltage, as shown on the type plate located on the bottom of the set, corresponds to your local mains supply. If it does not, consult your dealer or service centre. 2 Connect the mains lead to the AC MAINS inlet and the wall socket. The power supply is now connected and ready for use. 3 To switch off completely, unplug the mains lead from the wall socket. � Unplug the mains lead from the wall socket to protect your set during heavy thunderstorms. The typeplate is located on the bottom of the set

Changing tuning grid (some versions only) In North and South America the frequency step between adjacent channels in the AM and FM band are 10 KHz and 100 KHz respectively. In the rest of the world this step is 9 KHz and 50 KHz. Usually the frequency step has been preset in the factory for your area. 1 Check that the set is completely switched off. 2 To select 9KHz: Simultaneously, press STOP 9 and PRESET � on the set. 3 Switch the set on to TUNER and then release the controls. � To select 10KHz: Repeat steps 1-3 but in step 2, simultaneously, press STOP 9 and PRESET + on the set. � When you tune to radio stations, the display shows tuning in either steps of 9 kHz or 10 kHz. � All preset and autostore stations will be affected and you may need to reprogramme stations.

of sufficient reception. Display shows Srch during automatic tuning. (See 4) � For FM, pull out the telescopic aerial. Incline and turn the aerial. Reduce its length if the signal is too strong (very close to a transmitter). � For MW (AM) the set is provided with a built-in aerial so the telescopic aerial is not needed. Direct the aerial by turning the whole set.

� The lens of the CD player should never be touched! � Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can cause condensation to form and the lens of your CD player to cloud over. Playing a CD is then not possible. Do not attempt to clean the lens but leave the set in a warm environment until the moisture evaporates. � Always close the CD door to keep the CD compartment dust-free. To clean, dust the compartment with a soft dry cloth. � To clean the CD, wipe in a straight line from the centre towards the edge using a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use cleaning agents as they may damage the disc. � Never write on a CD or attach any stickers to it.
