___________________________  
SET-UP AND SAFETY  
Please note the following information when setting up the system:  
The hi-fi system is designed for the playback of audio signals. Any other use  
is expressly prohibited.  
If you want to set up the hi-fi system on wall shelves or in cupboards, please  
ensure that it is adequately ventilated. There must be at least 10 cm of space  
at the side, above and behind the hi-fi system. Do not place objects on the  
ventilation slots. Do not cover the hi-fo system with newspapers, table cloths,  
curtains, etc.  
Please note when setting up the hi-fi system that furniture surfaces are coated  
with various types of paint and plastic, which often contain chemical  
additives. These additives may cause corrosion to the feet of the unit. This  
may leave stains on the surface of the furniture which can be difficult or  
impossible to remove.  
Do not use any cleaning agents as they may damage the housing. Clean the  
hi-fi system with a clean, dry cloth.  
If the hi-fi system is exposed to sudden changes in temperature, for example  
when taken from the cold into a warm room, wait at least two hours before  
using it.  
The hi-fi system is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it outside,  
please ensure that it is protected from moisture, such as rain or water  
splashes.  
Only use the hi-fi system in a moderate climate.  
Do not place the hi-fi system close to heating units or in direct sunlight,  
as this will impair cooling.  
Do not place any vessels containing liquids (for example, vases) on the hi-fi  
system. Do not place any naked flames such as candles on the hi-fi system.  
Do not insert any foreign bodies in the CD compartment.  
Do not open the hi-fi system casing under any circumstances. Warranty  
claims are excluded for damage resulting from improper handling.  
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the hi-fi system  
is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the mains or the  
antenna cable. Always disconnect the mains and antenna plugs during a  
storm.  
Make sure the power plug is freely accessible.

CONNECTION AND PREPARATION  
Connecting the antenna  
1
Plug the rooftop antenna cable into the »FM ANTENNA«  
antenna socket on the hi-fi.  
Note:  
If no rooftop antenna is available, use the auxiliary antenna  
supplied. This antenna provides reasonably good reception of  
local FM (VHF) stations. Do not shorten the auxiliary antenna.  
2
Insert the wire frame antenna cable into the »MW ANTEN-  
NA« terminals on the hi-fi system. Adjust the position of the  
wire frame antenna until you get the best reception.  
Connecting an external device  
1
Connect the audio input sockets of the external device to the  
»AUX« socket on the right side of the hi-fi system with a stereo  
jack plug (ø 3,5 mm).  
Note:  
Switch the hi-fi system off before you connect external devices.  
Connecting the headphones  
1
Insert the headphone plug (ø 3,5 mm) into the »y« socket on  
the right side of the hi-fi.  
– The loudspeakers of the hi-fi system are switched off.  
Note:  
Excessive sound pressure from the earphones or headphones  
can cause hearing loss.  
Connecting the power cord  
Note:  
Check that the mains voltage on the type plate (on the bottom of  
the hi-fi system) corresponds to your local mains supply.  
1
2
Plug the mains cable supplied into the »AC ~« socket on the  
hi-fi system.  
Plug the power cord into the wall socket.  
Caution:  
The hi-fi system is connected to the mains with the power cord.  
Pull out the power cord when you want to completely disconnect  
the hi-fi system from the mains.  
Unplug the mains plug to disconnect the hi-fi system from the  
mains. Make sure the power plug is easily accessible during  
operation and not hindered by other objects.

CONNECTION AND PREPARATION  
Inserting batteries in the remote control  
1
Open the battery compartment by pushing down its lid.  
2
When inserting the batteries (2 x 1.5 V, R 6/UM 3/AA),  
observe the polarity marked on the base of the battery com-  
partment.  
Note:  
Do not expose the batteries to extreme heat, caused for exam-  
ple by direct sunlight, heaters or fire.  
If your hi-fi system no longer reacts properly to remote control  
commands, the batteries may be flat. Always remove used bat-  
teries. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage result-  
ing from leaking batteries.  
Environmental note:  
Batteries, including those which contain no heavy metal, should  
not be disposed of with household waste. Please dispose of  
used batteries in an environmentally responsible manner. Find  
out about the legal regulations which apply in your area.

CONNECTION AND PREPARATION  
Additional information for units sold in the UK.  
Units sold in the UK are suitable for operation from a 240V ac, 50Hz mains  
supply.  
The range of multi-system receivers is built to work in most European coun-  
tries. However, the mains plug and socket system for the UK differs from  
many European countries.  
This appliance has been supplied with a fitted, non-removable, approved  
converter plug for use in the UK. This converter plug is fitted with a 5A rated  
fuse.  
In case this appliance is supplied with a moulded 2-pin Euro plug only,  
which is unsuitable for UK operation, this must be cut off and immediately  
disposed of. An approved 13A, 3-pin UK plug should then be fitted by a  
qualified electrician.  
Note:  
The severed Euro plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock  
hazard should it be inserted into a socket elsewhere.  
If a non-rewireable 3-pin plug or a rewireable 13A (BS1363) 3-pin plug is  
used, it must be fitted with a 5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362 fuse. If any  
other type of plug is used it must be protected by a 5A fuse either in the  
plug, or at the distribution board. If this type of plug becomes defective,  
ensure that the fuse is removed before disposal, to eliminate potential shock  
hazard.  
If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct  
type and rating (5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362) must be used and the  
fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the lead and  
plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse  
covers should be obtained from your dealer.  
Important:  
The wires in the mains lead are colour coded in accordance with the follo-  
wing code:  
BLUE – NEUTRAL  
BROWN – LIVE  
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not cor-  
respond with the coloured marking identifying terminals in your plug, pro-  
ceed as follows:  
Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter “N”  
or coloured black.  
Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with the let-  
ter “L” or coloured red.  
In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal mar-  
ked with the letter “E”, earth symbol “z”, coloured green, or green & yel-  
low.  
Replacement mains lead sets can be obtained from your local dealer, or by  
contacting Grundig Consumer Relations (01788 570088)

RDS station service  
RDS (Radio Data System) is an information system which is trans-  
mitted additionally by most FM stations.  
When the hi-fi system is receiving an RDS station, the station name,  
for example »FANTASY«, and »f« appear in the display.  
Note:  
It may take some time before all the RDS information is  
available.  
Searching for RDS stations  
1
To search for an RDS station, press »UP TUNING/ ALBUM  
DOWN« repeatedly until »f« appears in the display  
indicating that an RDS station is being received.  
– After a short time the station name appears if the reception  
strength is sufficient.

RDS time synchronisation  
Some RDS stations transmit an RDS time signal. If reception is good,  
this time information will update the time if you have selected the  
»CT ON« option.  
Time synchronisation can take several minutes, and even with good  
reception the accuracy depends on the time signal being transmit-  
ted. The automatic time setting is always activated when the hi-fi  
system is switched from standby mode into tuner mode and receives  
a suitable RDS station (when the system is waiting for an RDS time  
signal, » « flashes. » « stays lit once RDS time synchronisation is  
Ȅ
Ȅ
complete).

When an RDS station is being received, the frequency is displayed

CD MODE  
The hi-fi system is suitable for music CDs bearing the logo shown  
here (CD-DA), and for CD-Rs and CD-RWs with audio data or  
MP3/WMA formats.  
In MP3/WMA mode, the terms “album” and “file” are very impor-  
tant. “Album” corresponds to a folder on a PC, “file” to a file on a  
PC or a CD-DA track. An MP3/WMA CD may not contain more  
than 200 albums and 500 files in total.  
The hi-fi displays the albums or files in the order you stored them on  
the data medium. Depending on the copying program or multi  
session CDs, this can mean that the albums and files are not  
displayed or played back in alphabetical order. If required, the  
albums/files need to be put in the right order before you copy them.  
You can do this by numbering them.  
When burning CD-R and CD-RWs with audio files, various prob-  
lems may arise which could lead to interference in playback. This  
can be caused by faulty software or hardware settings or by the CD  
being used. Should such problems arise, contact the customer ser-  
vices of your CD burner or software manufacturer or look for rele-  
vant information, for example on the Internet. When you are mak-  
ing audio CDs, observe all legal guidelines and ensure that the  
copyright of third parties is not infringed.  
Always keep the CD compartment closed to prevent dust from col-  
lecting on the laser optics. Do not attach adhesive labels to CDs.  
Keep the surfaces of CDs clean. You can play standard 12 cm CDs  
as well as 8 cm CDs on your device. An adapter is not necessary.
