Dear Customer:  
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical  
enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers.  
This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get  
the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and  
clear without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.  
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what  
sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your  
equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.  
To establish a safe level:  
• Start your volume control at a low setting.  
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.  
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:  
• Set the dial and leave it there.  
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want  
you listening for a lifetime.  
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime  
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage  
from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries  
Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.  
This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

of cable entry as practical.  
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of  
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it  
can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside  
antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching  
such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

Adjust the MIC VOLUME control as desired. Increasing this control  
will increase the volume of the microphone. Adjust the ECHO control ƒ  
to add an echo effect to your voice. The ECHO control ƒ is variable so  
add as much or as little reverb as desired. Sing or talk into the  
microphone and you will hear both the CD+G and the microphone.  
IMPORTANT: This feature only  
works with multiplex CDs.  
NOTE: The Program and Repeat features on a CD+G disc operate the same as with standard CDs.  
INFORMATION ABOUT CD+G KARAOKE DISCS:  
CD+G Karaoke discs are designed specifically for playback in special CD players that include a CD+G  
decoder, such as this unit. These discs contain the lyrics to each song and the lyrics will appear on your TV  
screen, line by line, as the disc is playing. Usually the words on the screen will change color in time with the  
music to help you sing along at the proper tempo, even if you do not know the song.  
Some CD+G Karaoke discs have all of the songs recorded twice, first with music only, and then with music  
and vocals together. (This type of recording is called a “Multiplex” recording.) For example, if you purchase a  
CD+G disc containing four songs, tracks one through four may have the music only without vocals, and  
tracks five through eight might have the same four songs recorded with music on the left channel and the  
vocal tracks on the right channel.  
MICROPHONE FEEDBACK:  
“Feedback” is a howling or screeching sound that occurs when the microphone comes too close to the  
speaker(s). To avoid microphone feedback, keep the microphone as far away from the speakers as the  
microphone cable will allow. If you must bring the microphone close to the speakers, such as when you are  
changing a disc or adjusting one of the other controls on the front of the unit, set the microphone ON/OFF  
switch to the OFF position.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
Caring for Compact Discs  
• Treat the compact disc carefully. Handle the compact disc  
only by its edges. Never allow your fingers to come in contact  
with the shiny, unprinted side of the compact disc.  
• Do not attach adhesive tape, stickers, etc. to the compact  
disc label.  
• Clean the compact disc periodically with a soft, lint-free, dry  
cloth. Never use detergents or abrasive cleaners to clean  
the compact disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.  
• If a compact disc skips or gets stuck on a section of the compact disc, it is probably dirty or damaged  
(scratched).  
• When cleaning the compact disc, wipe in straight lines from the center of the compact disc to the outer  
edge of the compact disc. Never wipe in circular motions.  
Z
• This unit is designed to play only compact discs bearing the identification logo as shown here.  
Other discs may not conform to the CD standard and may not play properly.  
• Compact Discs should be stored in their cases after each use to avoid damage.  
• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, high temperatures or dust, etc.  
Prolonged exposure or extreme temperatures can warp the compact disc.  
• Do not stick or write anything on either side of the compact disc. Sharp writing instruments, or the ink, may  
damage the surface.  
Cleaning the Unit  
• To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power source when cleaning.  
• The finish on your unit may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other furniture. Use caution  
when cleaning and wiping the plastic parts.  
• Mild soap and a damp cloth may be used on the front panel.
