Before you Begin

Unpacking the system

EN
Unpack your new mini audio system and locate all the
accessories. You should have:
• one main unit (with 2 speakers);
• one remote control;
• one AM loop antenna;
• one FM wire antenna;
• one guarantee card;
• one user's guide.
For Thomson model, you should also have;
• one audio cable;
• Thomson Multimedia Pack including MusicMatch
Music Management software (CD-Rom) and a patch
cable to connect your PC. (Refer to the page
"Thomson Multimedia Pack" for details)
• one subwoofer speaker for A3800.

Check for Moisture

Just as moisture can form on the inside of windows
on a cold day, it can also form on the inside of your
audio system causing it to malfunction.
If there is any moisture inside the system, the system
may not operate properly. In this case, you are sug-
gested to disconnect the power to the unit and wait
for about 30 minutes for the moisture to evaporate.

Choosing System Location

It is recommanded to follow these guidelines when
setting up your system:
• Choose a solid, level surface. Don't place on surfaces
like carpet or foam rubber.
• Choose a location away from direct sunlight, radia-
tor, air ducts and sources of heat.
• Avoid locations subject to moisture, mechanical
vibration, shock or excessive dust.
• Ensure that the lcoation is adequately ventilated, as
it is essential to protect the unit from internal heat
build-up.
