• Never open batteries, never solder or weld batteries.
The risk of explosions and injuries exists!
• Regularly check the condition of the batteries.
Leaking batteries can cause damage to the remote control
or to the device.
• If you do not intend to use the device for an extended
period of time, remove the batteries.
• If batteries have leaked put on protective gloves and clean
the battery compartment with a dry cloth.
The technical details of the device allow for an adjustable
frequency range outside of the receivable MW (AM) 526.5-

ranges. In some countries, different national regulations may
apply to the assigned radio frequency ranges. Please note
that information received outside of the assigned radio fre-
quency ranges may not be exploited, passed on to third par-
ties or otherwise misused.

Notice regarding disconnection from mainspower
Danger of eye injuries!
• This device is fitted with a "Class 1 Laser". Never look
directly into an open CD compartment The invisible laser
beam can damage your eyes.
To completely disconnect the device from mains power, the
plug must be removed from the power socket. For this purpose
the device must be set up so that constant, unimpeded access
to the mains power plug is guaranteed thus allowing for a
quick withdrawal of the mains plug in an emergency situation.
To eliminate the risk of fire the mains plug must be disconnect-
ed from the power source in the event that the device is not
going to be used for an extended period of time, for example,
during holidays.
CAUTION!
Information on surge voltage (EFT / rapid electrical
transition process) and Electrostatic discharge:
In the case of a malfunction due to rapid electrical transition
(surge voltage) or electrostatic discharge the product must
be reset (it may be necessary to disconnect the power source
and then reconnect it) to restore normal operation.
• Always take hold of the power cable by the plug. Do not
pull on the cable itself and never touch the power cable
with wet hands, this could result in either a short circuit or
you receiving an electric shock. Do not place the device,
furniture or anything else on the power cable and ensure
that it does not become clamped. Never make a knot in
the power cable and do not bind it together with other
cables. Place the power cable in a position where it cannot
be trodden on. A damaged power cable can cause a fire
or an electrical shock. Check the power cable from time
to time. Should it become damaged, contact your nearest
authorized customer service centre or dealer to have it
replaced.
Note: A case of electrostatic discharge occurs if you
walk with plastic-soled shoes over a carpet that also contains
elements of plastic. Through the friction of the shoe soles on
the carpet a charge is created in the body which discharges
itself as soon as you touch an electricity conducting object,
such as for example a door knob or the bodywork of a motor
vehicle. Thereby it is sufficient to approach the conductor to
within only a few cm. Direct contact is not required to effect a
discharge. The charge can also unload itself over an electri-
cal arc. A discharge is thus also possible through plastic hous-
ing components.
• The power plug must always be easily accessible, so that
in the event of an emergency the device can be quickly
disconnected from the mains power supply.
Note: This device is equipped with non-slip rubber feet.
As upper surfaces can comprise of various materials and are
treated with various cleaning materials, it cannot be complete-
ly excluded that some of these materials contain components
that could attack and soften the rubber feet. If possible place
an anti-slip material under the feet of the device.
Risk of fire!
• Do not use the device near hot surfaces.
• Do not place the device in locations that are subject to
direct sunlight. If you do, it may overheat and become ir-
reparably damaged.
Observe copyright laws
• In order to ensure sufficient ventilation place the device in
a location that has at least 10 cm clearance between it
and the wall.
When recording on CDs, USB memory mediums or from a
radio transmission obeserve the copyright laws of the country
in which the device is be used.
• Never leave the device unattended while it is being used.
• Never cover the ventilation slots of the device while it is on.
Avoid placing this device in locations that provide insuf-
ficient ventilation or hot locations and do not place the de-
vice in direct sunlight or under strong artificial light sources.
• Do not place open fire sources, such as candles, on the
device.
Positioning the device
> Remove the Micro system and accessories from the packing.
> Remove the transportation safety device from the CD com-
partment and all adhesive tapes/foils from the device.
> Place the Micro system on an even, level surface. Place
the micro system in such a position that the CD tray cover
can open fully.
• When a storm and/or thunderstorm with the risk of lighten-
ing threatens disconnect the device from the mains power.
> Place the speakers to the right and left of the Micro system.
Risk of personal injury!
• Keep the power cord and device away from children.
Children frequently underestimate the dangers of electrical
devices.
• Provide a stable location for the device.
• Do not operate the device if it has sustained a fall or is
damaged. Arrange for the device to be checked and/or
repaired by qualified technicians.
• Keep batteries well away from children. Children can put
batteries into their mouths and swallow them. If a battery is
swallowed medical assistance must be sought immediately.

The operating components
Inserting the batteries
The remote control requires a 3 V battery type CR2032,
which has been preinstalled at the factory. To protect against
premature discharging the poles have been isolated with a
plastic strip, which you can simply pull out before initial op-
eration. The remote control is then ready for operation.

Programme playing order
Playback of the CD starts automatically and in the display
appears the playback symbol ꢀ. Alternating with the title
number the display shows the number of the folder from
which is currently being played (i.e. F01 as the 1st. folder in
alphabetical order).
You can programme an order in which the titles of a CD
are to be played. 32 programme slots are available for this
purpose. Programming is only possible when playback is
stopped.
If the MP3/WMA CD contains several folders proceed as
follows:
> Press the button PROG/CLOCK-ADJ. on the device.

MP3/WMA functions
Search forward and backward
You can activate a search to look for specific passages within
an MP3/WMA title.
"MP3" denotes a process and/or format developed by the
Fraunhofer Institute for the compression of audio data. In the
MP3 format compressed music pieces are only a fraction of
their original size, which, for example, on CD-Rs/CD-RWs
allows for storage of a considerably greater volume of music
than on commercially available audio CDs, on which audio
data is stored in the CDA format. Indeed the audio quality is
scarcely reduced by the process.
> For this, during playback, hold down the button
ꢆ SKIP/SEARCH (Search forward) and/or the button
ꢅ SKIP/SEARCH (Search backwards) until the desired
location in the title is reached.
Programming an MP3/WMA title sequence
You can programme the sequence in which the titles of an
MP3/WMA CD are to be played back. 99 programme slots
are available for this purpose. This is only possible when the
play function has been stopped
"WMA" is a process and/or format developed by Microsoft®
for the compression of audio data. The compression process
is largely comparable to the MP3 process.
MP3/WMA title playback
> Press the button PROG/CLOCK-ADJ. on the device.
In the display appears the notice "PROG" and the pro-
gramme slot 1 (P - 0 1) of the title which is to be played first
with the programmed playback.
> Place a CD with MP3/WMA files into the CD compart-
ment. The device will now read the CD. In the display ap-
pears the notice "MP3" and/or "WMA" and, alternating,
the number of the available folder and the number of the
disc title.
> Select with the buttons ꢆ SKIP/SEARCH and/or ꢅ
