We Want You Listening For A Lifetime

YAMAHA and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level.

One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or

distortion – and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Since hearing damage from loud sounds is often undetectable until it is too late, YAMAHA and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group recommend

you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive volume levels.

CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT.

1.This unit is a sophisticated stereo cassette deck. To ensure proper operation for the best possible performance, please read this manual carefully.

2.Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to source of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep it away from sources of hum such as transformers or motors.

3.Do not open the cabinet as this may result in damage to the deck or electrical shock. If a foreign object should get into the deck, contact your local dealer.

4.Do not apply excessive force when operating switches and knobs.

5.When moving the deck, be sure to first pull out the power plug and remove all cords connecting the deck to other equipment.

6.Do not attempt to clean this unit with chemical solvents as this may damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

7.Never allow metallic items (e.g. screwdrivers, tools, etc.) to come near the record/playback head assembly. Doing so may not only scratch or damage the head’s mirror-smooth finish, it may also change the magnetic characteristics of the heads, causing a deterioration in reproduction quality.

8.Although the record/playback head used in this unit is a high quality head with outstanding reproduction characteristics, it can become dirty through the use of old tapes or from dust accumulation over time. This can have a serious effect on reproduction quality. Clean the heads regularly with one of the commonly available head cleaners or with cleaning solutions as explained later in this manual.

9.Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section of this manual for advice on common operating errors before concluding that your unit is faulty.

10.Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet if the unit is not to be used for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord, pull it out by grasping the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

11.Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

12.Voltage Selector (General model only)

The voltage selector on the rear panel of this unit must be set for your local mains voltage BEFORE plugging in the AC mains supply.
