Important Notes
Hearing is Very important to you and to us so please take care when operating this equipment. It is strongly recommended that you
follow the listed guidelines in order to prevent possible damage or loss of hearing:
ESTABLISH A SAFE SOUND LEVEL
Over time your hearing will adapt to continuous loud sounds and will give the impression that the volume has in fact been reduced.
What seems normal to you may in fact be harmful. To guard against this BEFORE YOUR HEARING ADAPTS set the volume at a
low level.
Slowly increase the level until you can hear comfortably and clearly and without distortion.
Damage to your hearing is accumulative and is irreversible.
Any ringing or discomfort in the ears indicates that the volume is too loud.
Once you have established a comfortable listening level, DO NOT INCREASE THE SOUND
LEVEL FURTHER.
The following list of typical sound levels may assist you in recognizing just how loud you have set the volume level.
DECIBEL
Level dB Example
30dB Quiet library, soft whisper.
40dB Living room, fridge freezer bedroom away from traffic.
50dB Normal conversation, quiet office, light traffic.
60dB Electric sewing machine.
70dB Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant.
THE FOLLOWING NOISE CAN BE HARMFUL UNDER CONSTANT
EXPOSURE
80dB Average city traffic. Alarm clock buzzer at 2 feet, food mixer.
90dB Motorcycle, heavy goods vehicle. Petrol lawn mower.
100dB Pneumatic drill, chain saw, garbage truck, discotec / night-club.
120dB Rock band concert, thunderclap.
PERMANENT LOSS OF HEARING
140dB TNRESHOLD OF PAIN Gunshot 2 feet away.
180dB Rocket Launching pad.

This unit has been designed to playback the following CDs:
• Audio CD
• CD-R (CD-Recordable)
• CD-RW (CD-ReWritable)
• MP3 disc (MP3 files recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW)*
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
• User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs (CD-ReWritable) can be played back when the discs are “finalised.”
*For MP3 discs
• This unit manages files and folders on MP3 discs as “tracks”
and “albums.”
• Playback order of the MP3 files (tracks) recorded on a disc are
determined by the writing (or encoding) application; therefore,
playback order may be different from the one you have
intended while recording the files and the folders.
• This unit shows the file (track) names and ID3v2 tags (only
“Title”, “Artist” and “Album”) on the display after playback starts;
however, there is a limitation on available characters and some
file names and ID3 tags may not be shown correctly.
More about MP3 discs
• MP3 discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) may take a longer time
to read after being insetted due to the characteristics of
MP3 discs.
• When making an MP3 disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or
Level 2 as the disc format.
• This unit does not support multisession recording.
• This unit can play MP3 files only with the following file extensions— “.MP3,” “.Mp3,” “.mP3,” and “.mp3.”
• Non-MP3 files are ignored. If non-MP3 files are recorded
together with MP3 files, this unit will take a longer time to
scan the disc. It may also cause the disc to not play.
• Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of
their disc characteristics or recorded conditions. This is
normal and is not an error written the system.

Recording onto a cassette from any of the sound sources is simple.
Just place a tape in Deck B, have the source ready, make one or
two settings, and you’re ready to record. For each source, the procedure is a little bit different so each to explained separately. But
first, here are a few things to make your recordings better.
Things To Know Before You Start Recording
❏ It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record
pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video
recording, broadcast or cable program and in any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic content embodied
therein.
❏ The recording level, which is the volume at which the new tape
is being made, is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected
by the VOLUME Control on the System. Also, it is not affected
by adjusting the sound effects. Thus, during recording, you can
adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting
the recording level.
❏ Two small tabs on the back of the cassette tape, one for side A
and one for side B, can be removed to prevent accidental erasure
or recording.
EJECT
(TAPE B)

Dec k indic ators
R EC indic ator
• At the start and end of cassette tapes, there is leader tape
which cannot be recorded onto. Thus, when recording
CDs, radio broadcasts, etc., wind on the leader tape first
to ensure getting the beginning of the recording.
CAUTION:
• If a recording you make has excessive noise or
static, the Unit may have been too close to a TV
which was on during the recording. Either turn
off the TV or increase the distance between the
TV and the Unit.
Adhesive tape
❏ To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must cover
the holes with adhesive tape first.
❏ Type I tape can be used for recording.

Page 23
Standard Recording
This is the basic method for recording any source. The System also
has special ways for recording CD to tape, and tape to tape, which
save you time and effort, as well as give you some special features.
However, when you need to add a selection to a tape you have
made, or are combining selections from several sources on one
tape, use the method described below; just substitute the source
you want into this procedure, such as a tape in Deck A, a CD, or
the Tuner. You can also record from an external equipment with
this procedure.
To Record Any Sound Source to Tape
Follow these steps to record from any sound source onto a tape in
Deck B.
