Factory fitted moulded mains plug

1.The mains plug contains a fuse. For replacement, use only a 13Amp ASTA-approved (BS1362) fuse.

2.The fuse cover must be refitted when replacing the fuse in the moulded plug.

3.Do not cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or adapter, or consult your dealer. If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the fuse and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.

IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue : Neutral

Brown : Live

Do not connect those leads to the earth terminal of a three-pin plug.

		should be routed so that they are not likely to be
		walked on or pinched by items placed upon or
		against them, paying particular attention to cords
		at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
		where they exit from the appliance.
		3. CAUTION – Polarization – This appliance may
	section	be equipped with a polarized alternating-current line
		plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This
		a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully
	Basic	plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is
		still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your
		into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should

The High grade Micro Component Series

Before applying power

R-SG7/DP-SG7/X-SG7 (EN)

Preparation section

Thank you for purchasing the High grade Micro component series.

This system is available in various configuration according to your preferences.

The system configuration is up to you, but as the following convenient system operations can be executed by connecting the various units to the system control, the respective units should be purchased as required.

Remote Control

The remote control supplied with the receiver can be used for basic operation of the source units (CD player, cassette deck, MD recorder).

Automatic Operation

When playback is started on the playback source unit, the input selector on the amp tuner will automatically be set to input for that source unit. Also, when source input is selected on the amp tuner, playback of the input source unit will be started automatically.

Synchronized Recording

With recording from CD or MD, it is possible to start synchronized recording by the recording unit (MD recorder or cassette deck). (Recording from one MD recorder onto another one is not possible.) There are also other convenient functions like one-touch edit recording for CD and MD etc.

Timer Operation

The clock function of the receiver can be used for timer playback and timer recording of source equipment (CD player, cassette deck, MD recorder).

About the Instruction Manual

While some models of the High grade Micro component series have an instruction manual explaining the system operation for R-SG7 (receiver), DP-SG7 (CD player), and X-SG7 (cassette deck), other models have only an operation manual for that model itself. This is done so that the system operation can be done easily even when optional equipment is purchased at a later date. Please read the required sections according to the components you purchased.

With the High grade Micro component series, the system explanations show only the connection method for the DM-SG7 (MD recorder). Please refer to the instruction manual enclosed with the DM-SG7 for the detailed operation.

When listening with low volume close to the set or late at night, we recommend the “Pure A” operation mode. Then you can enjoy smooth high-quality sound with little distortion. Please use the normal mode to listen at higher volumes.

7CD player unit that accomplishes improved sound quality and stability

¶Newly developed D.R.I.V.E. IC installed

A D.R.I.V.E. (Dynamic Resolution Incentive Vector Enhancement) IC that rapidly improves distortion at minute levels is installed in the CD player in order to extract the maximum performance possible from the CD.

7Convenient easy to use operation

¶Easy Operation

When the High grade Micro component series is connected to the system control, input switching with the input selector (TAPE, TUNER, CD, MD) of the R-SG7 will start playback by the selected unit. Reversely, when playback is started from a unit, the input will be switched automatically to this unit.

¶CD TEXT compatibility

Disc title and track names recorded on the CD appear in the display of the MD player (DM-SG7: sold separately).

The RDS data included in FM broadcasts can be used to search for the intended broadcasting contents and for automatic reception from standby.

Unpacking

Unpack the unit carefully and make sure that all accessories are put aside so they will not be lost.

Examine the unit for any possibility of shipping damage. If your unit is damaged or fails to operate, notify your dealer immediately. If your unit was shipped to you directly, notify the shipping company without delay. Only the consignee (the person or company receiving the unit) can file a claim against the carrier for shipping damage.

We recommend that you retain the original carton and packing materials for use should you transport or ship the unit in the future.
