WAARSCHUWING
All ICs and many other semi-conductors are susceptible to electrostatic discharges (ESD). Careless handling during repair can reduce life drastically. When repairing, make sure that you are connected with the same potential as the mass of the set via a wrist wrap with resistance. Keep components and tools also at this potential.
Alle IC's en vele andere halfgeleiders zijn gevoelig voor electrostatische ontladingen (ESD). Onzorgvuldig behandelen tijdens reparatie kan de levensduur drastisch doen verminderen. Zorg ervoor dat u tijdens reparatie via een polsband met weerstand verbonden bent met hetzelfde potentiaal als de massa van het apparaat. Houd componenten en hulpmiddelen ook op ditzelfde potentiaal.
F
ATTENTION
I
Tous les IC et beaucoup d'autres semi-conducteurs sont sensibles aux décharges statiques (ESD). Leur longévité pourrait être considérablement écourtée par le fait qu'aucune précaution n'est prise à leur manipulation. Lors de réparations, s'assurer de bien être relié au même potentiel que la masse de l'appareil et enfiler le bracelet serti d'une résistance de sécurité. Veiller à ce que les composants ainsi que les outils que l'on utilise soient également à ce potentiel.
AVVERTIMENTO
D
WARNUNG Tutti IC e parecchi semi-conduttori sono sensibili alle scariche statiche (ESD). La loro longevità potrebbe essere fortemente ridatta in caso di non osservazione della più grande cauzione alla loro manipolazione. Durante le riparazioni occorre quindi essere collegato allo stesso potenziale che quello della massa dell'apparecchio tramite un braccialetto a resistenza. Assicurarsi che i componenti e anche gli utensili con quali si lavora siano anche a questo potenziale.
Alle ICs und viele andere Halbleiter sind empfindlich gegenüber elektrostatischen Entladungen (ESD). Unsorgfältige Behandlung im Reparaturfall kan die Lebensdauer drastisch reduzieren. Veranlassen Sie, dass Sie im Reparaturfall über ein Pulsarmband mit Widerstand verbunden sind mit dem gleichen Potential wie die Masse des Gerätes. Bauteile und Hilfsmittel auch auf dieses gleiche Potential halten.

Safety regulations require that the set be restored to its original condition and that parts which are identical with those specified, be used. "Pour votre sécurité, ces documents doivent être utilisés par des spécialistes agréés, seuls habilités à réparer votre appareil en panne".

q Before operating the system, check that the operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or the voltage indication beside the voltage selector) of your system is identical with the voltage of your local power supply. If not, please consult your dealer. q Place the system on a flat, hard and stable surface. q Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in your system. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches) clearance from the rear and the top of the unit and 5 cm (2 inches) from each side. q Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight. q If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens of the disc unit inside the system. Should this occur, the CD player would not operate normally. Leave the power on for about one hour with no disc in the system until normal playback is possible. q The mechanical parts of the set contain selflubricating bearings and must not be oiled or lubricated. q When the system is switched to Standby mode, it is still consuming some power. To disconnect the system from the power supply completely, remove the AC power plug from the wall socket.
A Power
Before connecting the AC power cord to the wall outlet, ensure that all other connections have been made.
Fix the claw to the slot
WARNING! For optimal performance, use only the original power cable. Never make or change connections with the power switched on.
AM ANTENNA
To avoid overheating of the system, a safety circuit has been built in. Therefore, your system may switch to Standby mode automatically under extreme conditions. If this happens, let the system cool down before reusing it (not available for all versions).
¶ Position the antenna as far as possible from a TV, VCR or other radiation source.

Maintenance Troubleshooting
If the signal is too weak, adjust the antenna or connect an external antenna for better reception. Increase the distance between the Mini HiFi System and your TV or VCR.
Cleaning the Cabinet ¶ Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use a solution containing alcohol, spirits, ammonia or abrasives.
Cleaning the Heads and the Tape Paths ¶ To ensure good recording and playback quality, clean the heads A, the capstan(s) B, and pressure roller(s) C after every 50 hours of tape operation. ¶ Use a cotton swab slightly moistened with cleaning fluid or alcohol. ¶ You also can clean the heads by playing a cleaning tape once. TAPE OPERATION/RECORDING Recording or playback cannot be made.
Cleaning Discs ¶ When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the centre out. Do not wipe in a circular motion. ¶ Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic spray intended for analogue records. The tape deck door cannot open.
C B A B C
Clean deck parts, see "Maintenance". Use only NORMAL (IEC I) or IEC type II (Cr02) tape. Apply a piece of adhesive tape over the missing tab space. Remove and reconnect the AC power plug and switch on the system again.
Cleaning the disc lens ¶ After prolonged use, dirt or dust may accumulate at the disc lens. To ensure good playback quality, clean the disc lens with Philips CD Lens Cleaner or any commercially available cleaner. Follow the instructions supplied with the cleaner. GENERAL The system does not react when buttons are pressed. Sound cannot be heard or is of poor quality. The left and right sound outputs are reversed. The remote control does not function properly.
Demagnetising the heads ¶ Use a demagnetising tape available at your dealer.
Remove and reconnect the AC power plug and switch on the system again. Adjust the volume. Disconnect the headphones. Check that the speakers are connected correctly. Check if the stripped speaker wire is clamped. Check the speaker connections and location.
