System

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Each speaker requires four C batteries.  We recommend alkaline batteries
such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-551.  Alkaline battery life is
approximately 40 hours at rated outputs.  Follow these steps to install
the batteries.


1.  To remove the battery compartment cover on the back of each speaker,
    push the latch in the direction of the arrow and lift up the cover.


2.  Insert batteries into the compartment as indicated by the polarity
    symbols (+ and -) marked inside the compartment.

3.  Replace the cover.

Caution:  If you do not plan to use the speaker system for a week or more,
          remove the batteries.  Replace old batteries with fresh ones.
          Old batteries can leak chemicals that destroy electronic
          circuits.

AC POWER

You can also operate your speaker system with AC power by using an AC
adapter (Cat. No. 273-1655) and a Y-cable (Cat. No. 2731649).  Follow
these instructions to use AC power.

Caution:  The recommended adapter supplies 6 volts with the center tip set
          to negative and delivers the 700 milliamps the speaker system
          draws, and its plug properly fits the recommended Y-cable.
          Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications could
          seriously damage the speaker system or the adapter.

1.  Set the voltage on the adapter to 6V.

2.  Insert the green-tipped plug into the adapter cord so one side of the
    combined plugs reads TIP-NEG.

3.  Insert the green-tipped end of the adapta-plug into the Y-cable.

4.  Insert the Y-cable's plugs into the DC 6V jack on the back of each
    speaker.

5.  Plug the adapter into any standard AC outlet. 

CONNECTION

Follow these instructions to connect your radio/tape or CD player to the
speaker system.


1.  Connect the red plug of the supplied speaker cable to the right
    speaker and the white plug to the left speaker.


2.  Insert the cable's 1/8-inch plug into the headphones jack of your
    radio/tape or CD player.

Note:  If your radio/tape or CD player has a 1/4-inch jack, you need an
       adapter plug such as Cat. No. 274-367.  For more distance, use a
       cable such as Cat. No. 42-2460.
