The means of disconnection of the appliance is the
mains plug. This must not be obstructed and must
be freely operable at all times.
Site the system on a stable surface (ideally a stout
shelf) where it is unlikely to fall or get knocked over.
This is specially important in the case of the
speakers which should be placed on either side of
the main unit with at least150mm between each
speaker and the main unit.
The radio performance of the system is dependent
on the aerial.
The FM aerial should be moved around to get the
optimum results.
The AM aerial is internal to the system, so if you
need good medium wave reception, try the system
in different locations before making afinal choice.
Make sure that you position the unit where the
remote handset can easily be operated in direct line
of sight and no more than3 metres away.
Dirty, scratched or warped discs may cause
skipping or noise.
Handle the disc only by the edges. To keep discs
clean, do not touch the surface.

avoid scratches.
