for future reference.
About This Manual
This manual is organized as follows:
• The manual mainly explains operations using the
buttons on the remote control. You can use the buttons both on the remote control and on the unit for the same operations if they have the same or similar names (or marks), unless mentioned otherwise.
• Basic and common information that is the same for many
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the information about turning on/off the unit, setting the volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are explained in the section “Common Operations” on pages 9 and 11.
• The following marks are used in this manual:
Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent from damage or risk of fire/electric shock. Also gives you information which is not good for obtaining the best possible performance from the unit.
Gives you information and hints you had better know.
Power sources
• When unplugging from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the AC power cord.
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the following cases:
• After starting heating in the room
• In a damp room
• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in again.
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug the unit and consult your dealer before operating any further.
• If you are not going to operate the unit for an extended period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.
The illustrations used in this manual are of UX-L40 unless mentioned otherwise.

• Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat built-up in the unit.
• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference with TV.
DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.
DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are no user serviceable parts inside.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer.

English
CD
Continued use of irregular shape CDs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the unit.
General Notes
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your CDs and the mechanism clean.
• Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on shelves.
• Keep the unit’s disc tray closed when not in use.
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs (CD-ReWritable) can be played back only if they are already “finalized.”
• You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded in music CD format. However, they may not be played back depending on their characteristics or recording conditions.
• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is caused by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.

Recording

IMPORTANT:
It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted material without the consent of the copyright owner.
• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the other sound settings. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.
• If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static, the unit may be too close to a TV. Increase the distance between the TV and the unit.
• You can use type I tape for recording.
To protect your recording
Cassettes have two small tabs on the back to protect from unexpected erasure or re­recording. To protect your recording, remove these tabs. To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with adhesive tape.
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality
If the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers of the cassette decks become dirty, the following will occur:
• Impaired sound quality
• Discontinuous sound
• Fading
• Incomplete erasure
• Difficulty in recording
To clean the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers
Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol.

About This Manual
This manual is organized as follows:
• The manual mainly explains operations using the buttons on the remote control. You can use the buttons both on the remote control and on the unit for the same operations if they have the same or similar names (or marks), unless mentioned otherwise.
• Basic and common information that is the same for many functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the information about turning on/off the unit, setting the volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are explained in the section “Common Operations” on pages 9 and 11.
• The following marks are used in this manual:
Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent from damage or risk of fire/electric shock. Also gives you information which is not good for obtaining the best possible performance from the unit.
Gives you information and hints you had better know.
Power sources
• When unplugging from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the AC power cord.
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the following cases:
• After starting heating in the room
• In a damp room
• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in again.
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug the unit and consult your dealer before operating any further.
• If you are not going to operate the unit for an extended period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.

CD
Continued use of irregular shape CDs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the unit.
General Notes
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your CDs and the mechanism clean.
• Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on shelves.
• Keep the unit’s disc tray closed when not in use.
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs (CD-ReWritable) can be played back only if they are already “finalized.”
• You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded in music CD format. However, they may not be played back depending on their characteristics or recording conditions.
• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is caused by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.

Recording

IMPORTANT:
It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted material without the consent of the copyright owner.
• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the other sound settings. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.
• If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static, the unit may be too close to a TV. Increase the distance between the TV and the unit.
• You can use type I tape for recording.
To protect your recording
Cassettes have two small tabs on the back to protect from unexpected erasure or re­recording. To protect your recording, remove these tabs. To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with adhesive tape.
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality
If the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers of the cassette decks become dirty, the following will occur:
• Impaired sound quality
• Discontinuous sound
• Fading
• Incomplete erasure
• Difficulty in recording
To clean the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers
Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol.
