Precautions

1.Recording Copyright—Unless it’s for personal use only, recording copyrighted material is illegal without the permission of the copyright holder.

2.AC Fuse—The AC fuse inside the unit is not userserviceable. If you cannot turn on the unit, contact your Onkyo dealer.

3.Care—Occasionally you should dust the unit all over with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth dampened with a weak solution of mild detergent and water. Dry the unit immediately afterwards with a clean cloth. Don’t use abrasive cloths, thinners, alcohol, or other chemical solvents, because they may damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.

4.Power WARNING

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.

AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on the unit’s rear panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).

The power cord plug is used to disconnect this unit from the AC power source. Make sure that the plug is readily operable (easily accessible) at all times.

Pressing the [STANDBY/ON] button to select Standby mode does not fully shutdown the unit. If you do not intend to use the unit for an extended period, remove the power cord from the AC outlet.

5.Never Touch this Unit with Wet Hands—Never handle this unit or its power cord while your hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid gets inside this unit, have it checked by your Onkyo dealer.

6.Handling Notes

If you need to transport this unit, use the original packaging to pack it how it was when you originally bought it.

Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit for a long time, because they may leave marks on the case.

This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm after prolonged use. This is normal.

If you do not use this unit for a long time, it may not work properly the next time you turn it on, so be sure to use it occasionally.

When you’ve finished using this unit, remove all discs and turn off the power.

7.Installing this Unit

Install this unit in a well-ventilated location.

Ensure that there’s adequate ventilation all around this unit, especially if it’s installed in an audio rack. If the ventilation is inadequate, the unit may overheat, leading to malfunction.

Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heat sources, because its internal temperature may rise, shortening the life of the optical pickup.

Avoid damp and dusty places, and places subject to vibrations from loudspeakers. Never put the unit on top of, or directly above a loudspeaker.

Install this unit horizontally. Never use it on its side or on a sloping surface, because it may cause a malfunction.

If you install this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the picture and sound quality may be affected. If this occurs, move this unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.

8.To Obtain a Clear Picture—This unit is a hightech, precision device. If the lens on the optical pickup, or the disc drive mechanism becomes dirty or worn, the picture quality may be affected. To maintain the best picture quality, we recommend regular inspection and maintenance (cleaning or worn part replacement) every 1,000 hours of use depending on the operating environment. Contact your Onkyo dealer for details.

9.Moisture Condensation

Moisture condensation may damage this unit.

Read the following carefully:

Moisture may condense on the lens of the optical pickup, one of the most important parts inside this unit.

Moisture condensation can occur in the following situations:

The unit is moved from a cold place to a warm place.

A heater is turned on, or cold air from an air conditioner is hitting the unit.

In the summer, when this unit is moved from an air conditioned room to a hot and humid place.

The unit is used in a humid place.

Do not use this unit when there’s the possibility

of moisture condensation occurring. Doing so may damage your discs and certain parts inside this unit.

If condensation does occur, remove all discs and leave this unit turned on for two to three hours. By this time, the unit will have warmed up and any condensation will have evaporated.

CD receiver

Notes:

The remote controller may not work reliably if the CD receiver is subjected to bright light, such as direct sunlight or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing.

If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same room, or the CD receiver is installed close to equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote controller may not work reliably.

Don’t put anything, such as a book, on the remote controller because the buttons may be pressed inadvertently, thereby draining the batteries.

The remote controller may not work reliably if the CD receiver is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in mind when installing.

The remote controller will not work if there’s an obstacle between it and the CD receiver’s remote con-

trol sensor.

Notes:

If the remote controller doesn’t work reliably, try replacing the batteries.

Don’t mix new and old batteries or different types of batteries.

If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent damage from leakage or corrosion.

Expired batteries should be removed as soon as possible to prevent damage from leakage or corrosion.

Some audio CDs use copy protection that doesn’t conform to the official CD standard. Since these are nonstandard discs, they may not play properly in the CD receiver.

The CD receiver supports CD-R and CD-RW discs. However, some CD-R and CD-RW discs may not work properly for any of the following reasons: disc burner characteristics, disc characteristics, the disc is damaged or dirty. See the manual supplied with your disc burner for more information. Condensation or dirt on the optical pickup lens can also affect playback.

The CD receiver supports 8 cm and 12 cm discs.

The CD receiver does not support disc types not listed.

Don’t use discs with an unusual shape, such as those shown below, as you may damage the CD receiver.

Don’t use discs that have residue from adhesive tape, rental discs with peeling labels, or discs with custommade labels or stickers. Doing so may damage the CD receiver and you may not be able to remove the disc properly.

Discs Made on Personal Computers

Discs made on personal computers, including those of a compatible format, may not work properly in the CD receiver because of incorrect settings in the disc burning software. Check the manuals supplied with your disc burning software for additional compatibility information.

MP3 Compatibility

MP3 discs must be ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2, Romeo or Joliet compliant. Supported formats: Mode 1, Mode 2 XA Form 1.

Folders can be up to eight levels deep.

MP3 files must be MPEG-1/MPEG-2 Audio Layer 3 format with a sampling rate of between 8 kHz and 48 kHz and a bit-rate of between 8 kbps and 320 kbps (128 kbps recommended). Incompatible files cannot be played.

Constant bit rate MP3 files are recommended, however, variable bit-rate (VBR) MP3 files between

8 kbps and 320 kbps are supported. (Playing times may not display correctly.)

MP3 files must have a “.mp3” or “.MP3” file name extension. MP3 files without the proper extension will not be recognized. To prevent noise and malfunction, do not use these extensions for other types of files.

The CD receiver supports up to 499 MP3 files and folders. Files and folders in excess of this cannot be played. Note that if the file and folder structure is very complicated, the CD receiver may not be able to read or play all of the MP3 files on the disc.

Disc, file, and folder names may contain up to 32 characters.

The maximum time that can be displayed for a single file is 99 minutes and 59 seconds.

The remaining time cannot be displayed when playing MP3 files.

MP3 file and folder names (excluding the extension) are shown on the display.

Multisession discs are supported, however, some multisession discs may take a long time to load and some may not load at all. When burning CDs, we recommend that you use a single-session (disc-at-once), and select “Disc Close.”

Normally, the music in the audio session of a CD Extra disc is played. However, you can set the CD receiver so that it plays any MP3 files in the data session of a CD-R/RW disc instead. If the data session contains no MP3 files, the audio session will be played regardless. See “Setting MP3 Preferences” on page 36 for more information.

The Emphasis is not supported.

14

Disc Notes—Continued

The following ID3 tags are supported: versions 1.0/1.1 and 2.2/2.3/2.4. Versions 2.5 and later are not supported. Normally, version 2.2/2.3/2.4 tags have priority and will be displayed regardless of the ID3 VER 1 preference on page 37.

For ID3 version 2 tags, the tag information recognized will be those embedded in the beginning of the file. We recommend that you include only title, artist name, and album name information in ID3 tags. Compressed, encrypted, and unsynchronized ID3 tags cannot be displayed.

Note:

With CD-ROM, CD-R, and CD-RW discs that contain many files and folders and files other than MP3s, it may take a long time to read the disc. We recommend that you include only MP3 files on your discs, use about 20 folders, and limit folder nesting to three levels deep.

Handling Discs

Never touch the underside of a disc. Always hold discs by the edge, as shown.

Underside

• Never attach adhesive tape or sticky labels to discs.

Cleaning Discs

For best results, keep your discs clean. Fingerprints and dust can affect the sound quality and should be removed as follows. Using a clean soft cloth, wipe from the center outwards, as shown. Never wipe in a circular direction.

To remove stubborn dust or dirt, wipe the disc with a damp soft cloth, and then dry it with a dry cloth.

Never use solvent-based cleaning fluids, such as thinner or benzine, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic sprays intended for vinyl records, as they may damage the disc.

Storing Discs

Don’t store discs in places subject to direct sunlight or near heat sources.

Don’t store discs in places subject to moisture or dust, such as in a bathroom or near a humidifier.

Always store discs in their cases and vertically. Stacking, or putting objects on unprotected discs may cause warping, scratches, or other damage.

Connecting Antennas

This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna, AM loop antenna, and DAB antenna, and how to connect commercially available outdoor FM and AM antennas.

The CD receiver won’t pick up any radio signals without an antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna to use the tuner.

Connecting the Indoor FM Antenna

The supplied indoor FM antenna is for indoor use only.

1 Attach the FM antenna, as shown. North American Model

Insert the plug fully into the jack.

Other Models

Insert the plug fully into the jack.

Once the CD receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an FM radio station and adjust the position of the FM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

2 Use thumbtacks or something similar to fix the FM antenna into position.

Thumbtacks, etc.

Caution: Be careful that you don’t injure yourself when using thumbtacks.

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead (see page 17).

Connecting the AM Loop Antenna

The supplied indoor AM loop antenna is for indoor use only.

1 Assemble the AM loop antenna, inserting the tabs into the base, as shown.

2 Connect both wires of the AM loop antenna to the AM push terminals, as shown.

(The antenna’s wires are not polarity sensitive, so they can be connected either way around). Make sure that the wires are attached securely and that the push terminals are gripping the bare wires, not the insulation.

Push

Insert wire

Release

Once the CD receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an AM radio station and adjust the position of the AM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the CD receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM antenna (see page 17).

Connecting Antennas—Continued

Connecting the DAB Antenna

1 Screw the supplied DAB antenna’s plug onto the DAB ANTENNA jack.

Once the CD Receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into a DAB station and adjust the position of the DAB antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

2 Use thumbtacks or something similar to fix the DAB antenna into position.

Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.

Notes:

Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an attic or loft.

For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line of sight to your local FM transmitter.

Outdoor antenna should be located away from possible noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.

For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situated well away from power lines and other high-voltage equipment.

Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.

Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter

It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If circumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown.

TV/FM antenna splitter

To CD receiver

To TV (or VCR)

Connecting an Outdoor AM Antenna

If good reception cannot be achieved using the supplied AM loop antenna, an outdoor AM antenna can be used in addition to the loop antenna, as shown.

Outdoor antenna

Insulated antenna cable

AM loop antenna

Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed horizontally outside, but good results can sometimes be obtained indoors by mounting horizontally above a window. Note that the AM loop antenna should be left connected.

Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.

—Terminal posts—

Strip about 15 mm (5/8") of insulation from the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly. Unscrew the terminal. Fully insert the bare wire, making sure that it’s touching the threaded shaft in the center. Screw the terminal tight.

—Push-type terminals—

Strip about 10 mm (3/8") of insulation from the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly. Push the lever and insert the bare wires. Release the lever. Make sure the terminal is gripping the bare wires and not the insulation.

Connect only speakers with an impedance of between 4 and 16 ohms. Connecting a speaker with a lower impedance may damage the speaker.

Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the CD receiver.

Do not connect both speaker cables to the same L or R terminals (Fig. 1). Do not connect more than two speaker terminals to each speaker (Fig. 2).
