RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
“CAUTION:TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK).
NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL.”
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
Read these Operating Instructions carefully and completely before operating the unit. All precautions in this booklet and on the unit should be strictly followed. Keep the Operating Instructions for future reference.
Installation 1 Water and moisture — Do not use this unit near water,
such as near a bathtub, washbowl, swimming pool, or the like.
2 Heat — Do not use this unit near sources of heat, including
heating vents, stoves, or other appliances that generate heat. It also should not be placed in temperatures less than 5°C (41°F) or greater than 35°C (95°F).
3 Mounting surface — Place the unit on a flat, even surface. 4 Ventilation — The unit should be situated with adequate
space around it so that proper heat ventilation is assured. Allow 10 cm (4 in.) clearance from the rear and the top of the unit, and 5 cm (2 in.) from each side.
- Do not place the unit on a bed, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings.
- Do not install the unit in a bookcase, cabinet, or airtight rack where ventilation may be impeded.
5 Objects and liquid entry — Make sure that objects or
liquids do not get inside the unit through the ventilation openings.
6 Carts and stands — When placed or
mounted on a stand or cart, the unit should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the unit or cart to overturn or fall.
7 Condensation — Moisture may form on the CD pickup
lens when:
- The unit is moved from a cold spot to a warm spot
- The heating system has just been turned on
- The unit is used in a very humid room
- The unit is cooled by an air conditioner When this unit has condensation inside, it may not function normally. Should this occur, leave the unit for a few hours, then try to operate again.
8 Wall or ceiling mounting — The unit should not be
mounted on a wall or ceiling, unless specified in the Operating Instructions.
Electric Power 1 Power sources — Connect this unit only to power sources
specified in the Operating Instructions, and as marked on the unit.
2 Polarization — As a safety feature, some units are
equipped with polarized AC power plugs which can only be inserted one way into a power outlet. If it is difficult or impossible to insert the AC power plug into an outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If it still does not easily insert into the outlet, please call a qualified service technician to service or replace the outlet. To avoid defeating the safety feature of the polarized plug, do not force it into a power outlet.
3 AC power cord
- When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the AC power plug. Do not pull the cord itself.
- Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this could result in fire or shock.
- Power cords should be firmly secured to avoid being severely bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to the cord from the unit to the AC outlet.
- Avoid overloading AC outlets and extension cords beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire or shock.
4 Extension cord — T o help prevent electric shock, do not
use a polarized AC power plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the polarized plug can be completely inserted to prevent exposure of the blades of the plug.
5 When not in use — Unplug the AC power cord from the
AC outlet if the unit will not be used for several months or more. When the cord is plugged in, a small amount of current continues to flow to the unit, even when the power is turned off.
Outdoor Antenna 1 Power lines — When connecting an outdoor antenna,
make sure it is located away from power lines.
2 Outdoor antenna grounding — Be sure the antenna
system is properly grounded to provide protection against unexpected voltage surges or static electricity build-up. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information on proper grounding of the mast, supporting structure, and the lead-in wire to the antenna discharge unit, as well as the size of the grounding unit, connection to grounding terminals, and requirements for grounding terminals themselves.

Store tapes in their cases after use. Do not leave tapes near magnets, motors, television sets, or any source of magnetism. Do not expose tapes to direct sunlight, or leave them in a car parked in direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
If your unit fails to perform properly, check the following guide and the relevant sections of the Operating Instructions.
There is no sound
Are the speakers and AC power cord connected properly?
The unit shut off suddenly
Possibly a short circuit in the speaker terminals. Disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet and reconnect the speaker cords correctly.
Erroneous display
Reset the unit. (See "Resetting the unit" on this page.)
Poor radio reception
Check antenna connection. Adjust the antenna to find the best reception.
Move the unit and antenna away from other electric appliances and cords.
The tape does not run
Is the deck in pause?
Poor tape sound
Check for dirty heads. Clean them if needed.
Use type I (normal) tapes.
Cannot record
Is the erasure prevention tab of the tape broken off? If so, cover the detection slot with adhesive tape.
The CD player works poorly
Is the disc correctly loaded?
Is the disc dirty?
Is the lens affected by condensation? If so, wait
approximately one hour and try again.
Resetting the unit
If an unusual condition occurs in the display window or the cassette deck, reset the unit as follows: 1 Press POWER to turn off the power.
If the power cannot be turned off, disconnect the AC power cord, then plug it in again.
2 Hold down s and press POWER.
Everything stored in memory after purchase is cleared.

NOTE
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
CAUTION
Modifications or adjustments to this product, which are not expressly approved by the manufacturer, may void the user’s right or authority to operate this product.
REMARQUE
Cet appareil a été testé et jugé conforme aux limites des appareils numériques de Classe B, conformément à la Partie 15 des Règles FCC. Ces limites sont conçues pour fournir une protection raisonnable contre les interférences néfastes dans une installation résidentielle. Cet appareil produit, utilise et peut rayonner une énergie de fréquence radio et, s'il n'est pas installé et utilisé conformément aux instructions, peut provoquer des interférences gênantes pour les communications radio. Mais rien ne garantit qu'une telle interférence ne se produira pas dans une installation particulière. Si cet appareil produit des interférences gênantes pour la réception radio ou de télévision, ce qui peut se déterminer en allumant et éteignant l'appareil, il est recommandé à l'utilisateur d'essayer de corriger cette interférence en appliquant une ou plusieurs des mesures suivantes:
-Réorientation ou déplacement de l'antenne réceptrice.
- Éloignement de l'appareil du récepteur.
- Raccordement de l'appareil à une prise d'un circuit différent de celui du récepteur.
- Consultez le revendeur ou un technicien radio/télévision expérimenté.
