become inoperable.  If this happens, follow these steps to reset it.

  Unplug the system's cord from the AC outlet to disconnect power.

  Wait at least three minutes, then plug the system's cord back into the
  AC outlet.

The FCC Wants You to Know

This stereo system complies with the limits for a Class B digital device 
as specified in Part 15 of FCC Rules.  These limits provide reasonable 
protection against radio and TV interference in a residential area.  
However, your stereo system might cause TV or radio interference even when 
it is operating properly.  To eliminate interference, you can try one or 
more of the following corrective measures:

  reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

  increase the distance between the stereo system and the radio or TV.

  use outlets on different electrical circuits for the stereo system and
  the radio or TV.

Consult your local RadioShack store if the problem still exists.
