MAINTENANCE
MAIN UNIT
• Stains on the unit should be wiped off with a soft, lint-free cloth. If the unit is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in
water-diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean. Never use alcohol, solvent, chemical, paint thinner or
ben ene to clean the unit. Remember to unplug the unit from any electrical socket first before cleaning.
• Keep your player in a dry, well-ventilated place to prevent it from molding. Do not use or store the unit in locations that may
adversely affect the product such as rain, snow, moisture, dust or desert.
• Do not subject the unit to extreme impact, shock or fluctuations in humidity.
• Do not forcefully open and close the disc lid by hand as this may damage the lid.
• The unit should not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed
on the unit.
• Do not leave the unit exposed to direct sunlight for long periods. This may deform or discolour the cabinet and may cause
malfunction.
• Keep this unit away from strong magnetic fields and away from a TV or tuner. Exposure to magnetic fields may damage the
unit's internal circuitry and distort the TV picture or cause noisy radio reception.
• This system operates with a laser. It must only be opened by a qualified technician.
• Disconnect the system from the power source before performing any maintenance. Do not make any changes or modifications
to the unit or tamper with internal components. Unauthori ed changes may void your right to use the product and invalidate
the warranty. Any repair or internal adjustment should be made only by a trained technician.
• If any electronic circuitry is exposed, do not, under any circumstances, touch the circuitry as there is a danger of electric
shock.
• Do not insert any foreign objects or drop anything into any of the unit's openings as this could cause serious damage,
possibly resulting in fire.
• The technical specifications for this product and the contents of the user manual are subject to change without notice.
SPEAKERS AND SUBWOOFER
• The speakers and subwoofer should not be immersed in liquid or subjected to fluctuations in humidity. Any openings should
not be exposed to dripping or splashing and be free of dirt and dust build-up.
• Avoid dropping the speakers and subwoofer or subjecting them to extreme impact or shock.
• Do not leave the speakers and subwoofer exposed to direct sunlight for long periods or place them near heat sources.
• Do not disassemble and tamper with internal components as this could damage the units and also cause electric shock
resulting in personal injury.
• Do not use excessive force to press against the NXT* speaker panels as this may hinder audio quality output and cause
damage to the units.
To minimi e interference or disruptions to audio reception, make sure the speaker cable wires are not twisted or tangled
up in knots.
REMOTE CONTROL
• If the remote control will not be used for more than 1 month, remove the battery to avoid possible damage from battery
leakage and corrosion.
• Discard leaky battery immediately as it may cause skin burns or other personal injuries.
• Do not drop any foreign objects into the remote casing, particularly when replacing the battery.
• Dispose of battery in the proper manner, according to provincial and local regulations.
• Any battery may leak electrolyte if mixed with a different battery type, if inserted incorrectly, if batteries are not replaced at
the same time, if disposed of in fire, or if an attempt is made to charge a non-rechargeable battery.
• Do not expose the remote control sensor to direct sunlight or lighting apparatuses. Doing so may cause
the unit to malfunction or discolour the cabinet.

HANDLING AND CLEANING DISCS / DISC LENS
• Hold discs by the edges, or by one edge and the
hole. Do not touch the signal surfaces.
• Do not affix labels or adhesive tapes to the label
surfaces.
• Never put more than one disc on a tray or put a disc slipping out of the guide area.
• Do not scratch or damage the label. Discs rotate at high speeds inside the player. Do not use damaged, warped, or cracked
discs.
• Dirty discs can cause poor sound quality. If a disc becomes dirty, wet a soft cloth in water, wring it out well, wipe the dirt away
gently, and then remove any water drops with a dry cloth.
Always keep discs clean by wiping them gently with
a soft cloth from the inner edge of the disc toward the
outer perimeter. Never wipe the disc in a circular motion
since circular scratches are likely to occur and could cause
noise during playback.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays or antistatic agents on discs. Also, never clean discs with ben ene, thinner, or other
volatile solvents that may cause damage to disc surface.
• Do not touch the pick-up disc lens located inside the disc compartment. To keep dust from collecting on the disc lens do not
leave the compartment lid open for extended periods.
• If the disc lens gets dirty, it can cause the system to produce poor audio quality. Clean it with a soft brush, or use an air
blower brush designed for camera lenses.
• Always remove the disc from the main unit before moving the system.
CABLES AND PLUGS
• Do not connect the unit to the AC power supply until all other connections have been made and the AC voltage (indicated on
the type plate on the back cover) has been checked.
• Do not touch the cables and plugs with wet hands, forcibly bend them in any way, or place heavy objects on top of them.
• Connect only the cables and plugs provided with the unit.
• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods. When unplugging the cables and plugs from
the wall, always pull the plug or connector, not the cord.

(Right)
Your unit is supplied with light / dark grey speaker cable wires that are used to connect the speakers and subwoofer to the main
CD player unit's labelled "R" (right speaker), "L" (left speaker) and "SUB" (subwoofer).
1. Push up the corresponding speaker connectors' light / dark grey tabs on the main CD player unit.
2. Insert the light / dark grey speaker cable wires into the respective light / dark grey speaker connectors.
Ensure that the colours of the speaker cable wires match with the colours of the main unit's speaker connectors. That is,
the light-grey speaker cable wire should be connected only to the light-grey terminals and the dark-grey speaker cable wire
connected to the dark-grey terminals.
Never short-circuit light / dark grey speaker cable wires or reverse connections. Incorrect connection can damage the
speakers and subwoofer.
3. For the unit to be able to receive AM / FM radio reception, simply connect the AM loop antenna and FM pigtail antenna to
their respective AM / FM antenna jacks at the back of the player.
A blue translucent sheet protects the aluminium areas of the satellite speakers from scratching. Peel off the sheet to
operate.
Use only the speakers and subwoofer that is supplied with this unit. Using speakers or subwoofers of other types or
brands may short circuit or damage the unit.

CONNECTING THE MAIN UNIT
Connect one end of the main unit's cable into the AC IN
jack and plug the other end of the cable into a standard
2-wire or 3-wire power outlet or power strip.
INSERTING BATTERY INTO THE REMOTE CONTROL
With a CR2025 battery cell already installed, the
supplied remote control can be used to control the
system's operations once the system is connected.
Simply pullout and remove the plastic strip that is
wedged in the battery compartment and point the remote
control toward the main unit's infrared sensor to operate.

If battery power becomes depleted, install a new battery into the remote
control as follows:
1. Insert a blunt object such as a ballpoint pen into the small hole of
the battery compartment at the back of the remote control and
gently push out until the compartment can be removed from the
device with your hands.
2. Insert a new battery cell into the battery compartment's clip by
matching the "+" and "-" polarity. The "+" of the battery should be
facing upward.
3. Insert the battery compartment back into the remote control until it
is firmly positioned.
4. When using the remote control, point it at the sensor on the front
panel of the system.
