Precautions
Installation
• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor
too cold—between 5°C and 35°C.
• Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat buildup inside the System.
DO NOT install the System in a location near
heat sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.
• Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference
with TV.
Power sources
• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always
pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet
hands.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the System in
the following cases:
• After starting to heat the room
• In a damp room
• If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm
place
Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case,
leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.
Internal heat
•A cooling fan is mounted on the rear panel to prevent heat
buildup inside the main unit (see page G-1).
For safety, observe the following carefully:
• Make sure there is good ventilation around
the main unit. Poor ventilation could
overheat and damage the System.
• DO NOT block the cooling fan and the
ventilation openings or holes. If they are
blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the
heat may not be able to get out.
• If you are not going to operate the System for an extended
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and
consult your dealer.
How to Read This Manual

Additional Information
Learning More about This System
Daily Operations—Playback
Listening to the Radio:
• If you store a new station into an occupied preset number,
the previously stored station in that number will be erased.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the preset stations will be erased in a few days. If
this happens, preset the stations again.
Playing Back a Disc:
• When using an 8 cm disc, place it on the inner circle of the
disc tray.
• This System cannot play “packet write” discs.
• For MP3 playback...
– MP3 discs are required a longer readout time than regular
CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/file
configuration.)
– Some MP3 files cannot be played back and will be
skipped. This result from their recording processes and
conditions.
– When making MP3 discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level
2 for the disc format.
– This System can play back MP3 files with the extension
code <.mp3> (regardless of the letter case—upper/
lower).
– Some characters or symbols will not be shown correctly
on the display.
The maximum character number shown on the display is
32 (without the extension code) for files, and 30 for ID3
tag.
– It is recommended that you make each MP3 file at a
sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps.
– This System can recognize the total of 500 tracks and of
200 groups. Those exceeding the maximum number
cannot be recognized.
– Playback order of MP3 tracks may be different from the
one you have intended while recording. If a folder does
not include MP3 tracks, they are ignored.
When discs* are loaded on more than one tray, they are
played in sequence as follows:
Ex.: When CD 2 is selected:
CD 2 -> CD 3 -> CD 4 -> CD 5 -> CD 1
(then selects CD 2, and stops)
* When no disc is loaded on the tray, that disc number is
skipped.
You can exchange discs while playing or selecting another
disc.
Playing Back a Tape:
• It is not recommended to use the C-120 or longer tapes.
These tapes easily jams in the pinch rollers and capstans,
and may cause characteristic deterioration.
(see pages 8 to 12)

or radio broadcasts, wind the leader tape first to ensure that
the recording will be made without any music part lost.
• If you start recording with no cassette inserted, “NO
TAPE” appears on the display. If a protected tape has been
inserted, “NO REC” appears.
• When using Reverse mode for recording, start recording in
the forward (3
stop when only one side (reverse) of the tape is recorded.
• You can also change Reverse mode setting ( and )
after starting recording.

and moisture.
To clean the disc:
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to
edge.
Handling cassette tapes
• If the tape is loose in its cassette, take up the slack by
inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotate it.
– If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught in
the cassette.
• Be careful not to touch the tape surface.
• Avoid the following places to store the tape—in dusty
places, in direct sunlight or heat, in moist areas, on a TV or
speaker, or near a magnet.
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality
• Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol to clean the
heads, capstans, and pinch rollers.
• Use a head demagnetizer (available at electronics and
audio shops) to demagnetize the heads (when the System
turned off).
Cleaning the System
• Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System
is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in waterdiluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean
with a dry cloth.
