kitchen sink, in a wet basement or near a
swimming pool, or the like.
•Proper air circulation around the
housing - especially on top - must be
provided to avoid overheating. Please
keep a clearance of at least 10cm.
•This unit is intended for use with the
mains voltage indicated on the unit’s
back label. Never try to use it with
different voltage supply.
•If objects have fallen inside or liquid
has been spilt onto the product disconnect
the plug from the mains immediately and

About these instructions
The operation described here mainly refers to the use of the remote control handset (R/C).
Buttons with same or similar marking at the main unit have the same function like those of
the remote control (R/C).
Preparation for turning on
Place of erection
ØFor setting up the unit please choose a location with sufficient air circulation around. That
prevents overheating. Don’t expose the unit to direct sunlight or other heat sources.
ØDo not pile up other units on top of your receiver. That would block the vent holes and
cause the device to overheat.
Before using the remote control
1. Please open the battery compartment.
2. Insert two batteries (1,5 V, size AAA). Please
make sure the polarity matches the marks
inside the compartment. Otherwise the r/c will
not work and may be damaged. Replace the
cover.
3. Please point the r/c towards the main unit when
operating its buttons.
The r/c works properly in a distance below 5m
and in an angle of up to 60° of the front of the
unit. No obstacles may stand in the way
between r/c and infrared sensor.
ØShould the r/c start to work unreliably replace
both batteries. We recommend using alkaline
batteries.
ØBatteries should not be disposed by
ordinary refuse disposal. Please lead empty batteries towards appropriate
collecting points. Never throw batteries into fire.
ØIf you won’t use the r/c for some time, please remove the batteries from the
compartment, to prevent damage by leakage.

Connecting the antenna
For being able to receive radio programmes, connect the enclosed FM-projection
antenna for FM-reception and the AM-loop antenna for medium wave reception.
FM-antenna
For the FM-reception, please wind off the enclosed
projection antenna completely. Please push the
plug of the antenna on the central pin of the FM 75
ohm terminal. If your device is later working in
FM-operation, pass the antenna in such a way that
you achieve an optimal, noise-free reception.
If you connect an outside antenna, this antenna
must be grounded against lightning strikes. It is
essential that you discuss this matter with an
antenna expert. Never try to install an outside antenna on the roof of a house on
your own. This is very dangerous and may only be done by qualified service
experts.
AM-antenna
In order to install the enclosed medium wave antenna on a flat plane, assem-
ble it onto the stand as described in the following picture:
Connect the two connection wires of the medium wave antenna with the “AM
LOOP” terminals on the rear side of the receiver. Determine the optimal recepti-
on position of the antenna.
Tips:
ØIn order to avoid disturbing noises during medium wave reception, please keep the loop
antenna away from speakers and other technical equipment.
ØYou can also connect the cable network of the Telekom to the FM 75 ohm terminal. In
most cases, it transmits radio programmes as well.
