Your RadioShack CDG Karaoke System is one of the most  
versatile karaoke systems available. It lets you be the “star”  
as you sing along with your favorite recordings on a CD, or  
a CDG (a compact disc with a graphic track), and hear your  
voice with the music through the powerful built-in speaker.  
Your karaoke system’s CDG capability lets you connect the  
karaoke system to a TV or monitor and read the lyrics of  
your favorite tunes as they scroll by in front of a still video  
graphic, such as a picture or drawing related to the music.  
Your karaoke system can also be used as a small PA  
system for speaking at parties or other gatherings.  
The lightning symbol is  
intended to alert you to the  
presence of uninsulated  
dangerous voltage within this  
product’s enclosure that might  
be of sufficient magnitude to  
constitute a risk of electric shock. Do not  
open the product’s case.  
The exclamation symbol is  
intended to inform you that  
important operating and  
maintenance instructions are  
included in the literature  
accompanying this product.

Careful attention is devoted to quality standards in the manufacture of your karaoke, and safety is a  
major factor in its design. However, safety is also your responsibility. This section lists important  
information that will help you properly use and enjoy your karaoke and accessories. Read all the  
included safety and operating instructions before using your karaoke. Follow them closely, and retain  
them for future reference.  
Heed Warnings — Follow all warnings on the product and in the operating instructions.  
Cleaning — Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use only a damp cloth for  
cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.  
Attachments — Do not use attachments/accessories not recommended by the product manufacturer,  
as they might create a hazard.  
Water and Moisture — Do not use this product near water (for example, near a bathtub, washbowl,  
kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool).  
Accessories — Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The  
product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the product. Use  
only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the  
product. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for mounting, and use a recommended mounting  
accessory.  
Carts — Move the product on a cart carefully. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces  
may cause the product/cart to overturn.  
Ventilation — Slots and openings in the cabinet provide ventilation, ensure reliable operation, and  
protect from overheating. Do not block or cover these openings, and do not place the product on a  
bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do not place the product in a built-in installation such as a  
bookcase or rack unless it provides proper ventilation as specified by the manufacturer.  
Power Sources — Operate this product using only the power source indicated on its marking label. If  
you are not sure of your home's power type, consult your product dealer or local power company.  
Polarization — This product is equipped with a polarized AC line plug (a plug having one blade wider  
than the other). This plug will fit in the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you  
cannot insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still doesn't fit, contact your  
electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug. If  
you need an extension, use a polarized cord.  
Power-Cord Protection —Route power-supply cords so they are not likely to be walked on or pinched  
by items placed on or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience  
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.  
Lightning — For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left  
unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the  
antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line  
surges.  
Overloading — Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles, as  
this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.  
2
 
 
Objects and Liquids — Never push objects of any kind into this product through openings, as they  
may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock.  
Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.  
Servicing — Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may  
expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.  
Damage Requiring Service — Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified  
service personnel under the following conditions:  
• When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.  
• If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the product.  
• If the product has been exposed to rain or water.  
• If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only  
those controls that are covered by the operating instructions, as an improper adjustment of other  
controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to  
restore the product to normal operation.  
• If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.  
• When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.  
Replacement Parts — When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses  
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or having the same characteristics as the original  
part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.  
Safety Check — Upon completion of service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to  
perform safety checks to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.  
Wall or Ceiling Mount — The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by  
the manufacturer.  
Heat — The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,  
stoves, or other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
Power Lines — Locate any outdoor antenna away from power lines.  
Nonuse Periods — Unplug the product’s power cord when you will not use it for extended periods.  
Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product,  
ground the antenna or cable system so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and  
built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides  
information about proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in  
wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit,  
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See the example  
below.
