Precautions for Inkjet Printable Discs
Do not leave a CD-R/CR-RW having a label printed with
an inkjet printer in the CD receiver for a long time. The
disc could get stuck in the CD receiver, or could damage
the CD receiver.
Remove the disc from the CD receiver when not being
played, and store it in a case. A freshly printed disc will
stick easily, and should not be played immediately.

Connecting Speakers

Right speaker
Speaker
cable
CD receiver
Remove the precut insulation from the ends of the
speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly.
Push the lever to open the hole, insert the bare wire into
the hole, and then release the lever.
Make sure that the speaker terminals are gripping the
bare wires, not the insulation.
• Connect the right speaker to the CD receiver's right
(R) SPEAKERS terminals. Connect the left speaker to
the left (L) SPEAKERS terminals.
Caring for Discs
If the disc is dirty, the CD receiver will have a hard time
reading signals, and the audio quality may drop. If the
disc is dirty, gently wipe off fingerprints and dust with a
soft cloth. Lightly wipe from the center outwards.
To remove stubborn dust or dirt,
wipe the disc with a soft cloth
dampened with water, and then dry
it with a dry cloth. Do not use
cleaning spray for analog records
or antistatic agents, etc. Never use
volatile chemicals such as benzine
or paint thinner as they can impregnate the disc surface.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect
Left speaker
positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals,
and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–)
terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the
sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
• Use the red line wires to connect the positive (+)
terminals.
• Do not connect anything other than the included
speakers (D-T05). We cannot take responsibility for
malfunctions or poor results if this CD receiver is used
with any other speakers.
• Do not connect both speaker cables to the same L or R
terminals. Do not connect more than two speaker
terminals to each speaker.
Red line side
• Be careful not to short the positive and
negative wires.
Doing so may damage the CD receiver
and/or speakers.
