AM and FM Antennas

TheHorizonDuo-icomesoutoftheboxreadytouse.TheinternalAMantennaisconnected.TheFMantenna

isalsoconnected.Justextendthewireconnectedtotheplug.Withthestandardantennasyou’llprobably

pull in more stations than any other radio you own. But if you want to listen to stations that are very far away

thenexternalantennascanbeconnectedtotheantennainputs.

About the Front Panel Controls

Most of the Horizon Duo-i functions are operated by the three

controls on the front panel.

Power/Volume – Is controlled by the large knob in the center of

the panel.

Mode – Selects the input you want to use or the function you

want to adjust.

Tune – Tunes in a new radio station.

These logical, intuitive controls make it easy to operate the Horizon

Duo-i. The way you use each contol is the same for each feature.

Once you learn how to control one of the features the rest of them

will be easy. You may not need to refer to this manual once you

understand the way the controls work.

About the Remote Control

Most of the features of the Horizon Duo-i can be operated with the supplied

remote control. When it’s not being used, the remote control can be

conveniently stored in the recess on top of the Horizon Duo-i, in front of the

iPod dock. The remote also has a magnetic backing so it can be attached to

many metal surfaces.

Note: When you unpack your remote control there will be a plastic insulation

tabextendingfromthebatterycompartment.Pulloutthistabbeforeusingthe

remote control.

There must be an unobstructed line of sight to the front of the Horizon Duo-i

when using the remote control. Point the remote control at the front panel of

the Horizon Duo-i when pressing the buttons. For best results you should be within 20 feet of the unit and

nomorethan45°oaxis.

Note: Eventually you’ll need to replace the remote battery. If the remote doesn’t reliably operate the Duo-i,

putinanewCR20253Vlithiumcointypebattery.

WhenpowertotheDuo-iisinterruptedaspecialpowercomponentcalleda“super-cap”willkeeptheclock

functions active for a period of 24-48 hours. If the Duo-i is without power for a longer period of time you may

need to reset the clock when power is restored.

Security Cable Connection

There is a security cable connection point on the rear of the Duo-i to the right of the power input connector.

This is the same as the connection point found on most laptop computers. Connect a computer security

cable between the Duo-i and a solid anchor point to help prevent theft of your Duo-i.

Service Port

The Service port on the rear panel is for use only qualied service technician.

Maintenance and Service

The Duo-i enclosures may be cleaned using a soft cloth to remove ngerprints or to wipe o dust. All wiring

connections should be inspected and remade at least once a year.

In the event that your speakers ever need service, contact your local Boston Acoustics dealer or visit

www.bostonacoustics.com/dealersforalistofdealersinyourarea.

Desembalaje y preparación de su Horizon Duo-i

Desembale el Horizon Duo-i cuidadosamente. Si observa algún daño que haya ocurrido durante el

transporte,infórmeloinmediatamenteasuvendedory/oserviciodeentrega.Conservelacajaylos

materiales de embalaje para uso futuro. Conserve el recibo de compra en un lugar seguro, ya que podría

necesitarlo para los nes de la garantía.

Dentro de la caja encontrará el Horizon Duo-i, el control remoto, el cabe de alimentación y siete adaptadores

para usar con la base para iPod.

Opciones de colocación

SuHorizonDuo-itendráunexcelentesonidoprácticamente

en cualquier ubicación. Sin embargo, si lo coloca cerca de

un muro o una esquina mejorará la respuesta de bajos.

No bloquee el puerto de bajos. Asegúrese que los oricios

de ventilación del gabinete que se encuentran detrás de

la base para iPod no estén bloqueados y permitan la

ventilación.

Conexión a la red eléctrica

Simplemente conecte el cable de alimentación a la

parte posterior del Horizon Duo-i y enchúfelo en un

tomacorriente.

Antenas para AM y FM

estáconectada.Simplementeextiendaelcablequesaledelconectorcorrespondiente.Conlasantenas

embargo,sideseaescucharemisorasubicadasagrandesdistanciaspuedeconectarantenasexternasusando

las entradas para antenas.

Controles del panel delantero

LamayoríadelasfuncionesdelHorizonDuo-iseoperanusando

los tres controles que se encuentran en el panel delantero.

Encendido/Volumen – Controlados mediante la perilla más

grande que se encuentra en el centro del panel.

Modo(“Mode”)–Paraseleccionarlaentradaquedeseautilizarola

función que desea ajustar.

Sintonizar(“Tune”)–Parasintonizarunanuevaemisora.

Estos controles lógicos e intuitivos hacen que el Horizon Duo-i sea

muy fácil de utilizar. El modo de uso es igual para cada una de las

funciones. Una vez que aprenda a controlar una de las funciones

el resto será muy sencillo. Después que haya comprendido cómo

funcionan los controles es posible que ya no tenga que consultar

este manual nuevamente.

Acerca del control remoto

LamayoríadelasfuncionesdelHorizonDuo-isepuedenoperarusandoel

control remoto provisto. Mientras no lo utiliza, puede guardar cómodamente el

control remoto en el espacio que se encuentra en la parte superior del Horizon

Duo-i, delante de la base para iPod. Además, la parte posterior del control remoto

está magnetizada de modo que puede jarlo a cualquier supercie metálica.

Nota: Cuando desembale el control remoto verá una banda plástica aislante

que sale del compartimiento de la batería. Retire esta banda antes de utilizar el

control remoto.

Para utilizar el control remoto es necesario que no haya obstrucciones en

la línea visual entre el control remoto y el frente del Horizon Duo-i. Cuando

presione los botones apunte el control remoto hacia el panel delantero del Horizon Duo-i. Para obtener

mejores resultados, manténgase a una distancia menor o igual que 20 pies de la unidad y con un ángulo de

desviación no mayor que 45° respecto del eje.

Nota: Eventualmente será necesario reemplazar la batería del control remoto. Si el control remoto ya no

permiteoperarelDuo-idemaneraconable,instaleunanuevabateríadelitiode3VtipoCR2025.
