A3.2 TUNER
FM Tuner with RDS and Remote Control
MUSICAL FIDELITY A3.2 RDS TUNER
STORE MODE TUNE MONO/STEREO
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Thank you for purchasing the Musical Fidelity A3 .2 FM Tuner.
The A3.2 Tuner uses the latest Radio Data System (RDS) circuitry allowing
station identification to be displayed from RDS-supported transmitters.
Special noise-reduction techniques are used to achieve an excellent
technical specification and unparalled sound quality.
Æsthetically, the A3.2 Tuner is a perfect match for the
A3.2 CD player, A3 .2 CRPre-amplifier or A3 .2 Integrated amplifier.
Together these components form one of the finest hi-fi systems available.
Dust regularly with a soft duster or soft brush, but be careful when using
cleaning or polishing agents - they may harm the surface finish.
If you have any questions about your audio system,
please consult your dealer who is there to help and advise.

INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS and USER INFORMATION
Your A3.2 Tuner is designed and built to provide trouble-free performance, but as with all
electronic devices it is necessary to observe a few precautions:
Heed all warnings shown on the back of the product.
Only connect the A3 .2 Tuner to a mains outlet having the same voltage as marked at the back
of the unit.
Always ensure that when disconnecting and reconnecting your audio equipment the mains
supply is switched off.
Position the mains lead and signal interconnections where they are not likely to be walked on
or trapped by items placed on them.
Do not use near water, or place water-filled containers on the tuner, for example, flower vases
or potted plants. If water does spill inside, immediately pull out the mains plug from
the wall socket and inform your dealer, who should then check the tuner before further use.
Entry of liquid into the unit is dangerous, and may cause electric shock or fire hazard.
Do not place the unit near heat sources such as radiators, direct sunlight or other equipment.
Do not remove any covers or try to gain access to the inside. There are no internal user
adjustments. Refer all service work to an authorised Musical Fidelity agent.
NOTE: Unauthorised opening of the equipment will invalidate any warranty claims.
There are fuses inside the A3.2 Tuner. In the unlikely event that one blows, refer the unit to
your audio dealer. Do NOT try to replace the fuse yourself as this will invalidate the warranty.
Dust regularly with a soft duster or soft brush but be careful when using cleaning or polishing
agents - they may harm the surface finish.
The electronics in modern hi-fi equipment is complex and may, therefore, be adversely affected
or damaged by lightning. For protection of your audio system during electrical storms, remove
the mains plugs and disconnect the aerial lead.
The remote control enables most functions of the tuner to be operated from a convenient distance. Several of the features described in this manual are only available via the remote handset. Equivalent button inscriptions on the remote control have the same functions as the tuner’s
front panel buttons. As the remote control system uses an invisible infra-red light beam, the
transmitter must be pointed directly towards the receiver window on the tuner and visual contact must exist between them. If the range of the remote control greatly decreases, replace the
batteries with new ones - two are required, type SUM-4, AAA or LR03. Do not mix old and
new batteries.
If after-sales service is required, to help your dealer identify the A3.2 Tuner please quote the
serial number located on the rear panel of the unit.
