WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
• The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an
equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the
product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
• The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the appliance.
12. Power-Cord Protection — Power-supply cords 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 the cords at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from
the appliance.
13. Cleaning — The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended
by the manufacturer.
14. Nonuse Periods — The power cord of the appliance should be
unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
15. Object and Liquid Entry — Care should be taken so that objects do
not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through
openings.
16. Damage Requiring Service — The appliance should be serviced by
qualified service personnel when:
A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance;
or
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a

RISQUE DE CHOC ELECTRIQUE
NE PAS
OUVRIR
7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting — The appliance should be mounted to a
wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
8. Ventilation – The appliance should be situated so that its location or
position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example,
the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar
surface that may block the ventilation openings; or if placed in a
built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede
the flow of air through the ventilation openings, there should be free
space of at least 5 cm (2 in.) and open up behind the appliance.
9. Heat — The appliance should be situated away from heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
10. Power Sources — The appliance should be connected to a power
supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as
marked on the appliance.
11. Polarization — If the appliace is provided with a polarized plug
having one blade wider than the other, please read the following
information: The polarization of the plug is a safety feature. The
polarized plug will only fit the outlet one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the outlet, try reversing it. If there is still trouble, the user
should seek the services of a qualified electrician. Under no
circumstances should the user attempt to defeat the polarization of the
plug.

In case of warranty claim, please report this number.
2. Recording Copyright
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use
is illegal without permission of the copyright holder.
3. Power
WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST
TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION
CAREFULLY.
The voltage of the available power supply differs according
to country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of
the area where this unit will be used meets the required
voltage (e.g., AC230V 50Hz or AC120V 60Hz) written on
the rear panel.
4. Do not touch this unit with wet hands
Do not handle this unit or power cord when your hands are wet
or damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take this
unit to an authorized service center for inspection.
5. Location of this unit
• Place this unit in a well-ventilated location.
Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all
sides of this unit especially when it is placed in an audio
rack. If ventilation is blocked, this unit may overheat and
malfunction.
• Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heating units
as this unit's internal temperature may rise and shorten the
life of the pickup.
• Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected
by vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid
placing the unit on or above one of the speakers.
• Be sure this unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never
place it on its side or on a slanted surface as it may
malfunction.
• Do not place near tuners or TV sets.
If placed next to a TV or tuner, it may cause reception
interference resulting in some noise in the TV or tuner
output.
6. Care
From time to time you should wipe off the front and rear
panels and the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt,
dampen a soft cloth in a weak solution of mild detergent and
water, wring it out, and wipe away the dirt. Following this,
dry immediately with a clean cloth. Do not use rough
material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents or
cloths since these may damage the finish or remove the panel
lettering.
7. Points to remember
• If this unit is brought from a cold environment to a warm
one or is in a cold room that is quickly heated, condensation
may form on the pickup, preventing proper operation. In
this case, remove the disc and leave the power ON for
about one hour to remove the condensation.
• When transporting this unit, be careful not to bump it.

Connecting other components
• Do not plug in the AC power cord until all other connections have been made.
• On each pair of input or output jacks, the jack (marked R) corresponds to the right channel, and the jack (marked L) to the left
channel. Refer to the amplifier's instruction manual for further information on connections.
• Do not place the MD recorder on the amplifier or receiver.
• Do not fold optical cables into a short length or wind them up into a coil with a small radius.
• Avoid bundling the audio connection cables with the power cord or speaker cables. Doing so may cause degraded sound reproduction.

is available. For digital recording, you need
to connect the equipment to either DIGITAL IN 1 or 2 terminal using the supplied
optical cable. These terminals can also be
used for connecting an amplifier which is
equipped with a digital output terminal.
Note:
• If the DIGITAL IN 2 is used for
connecting the amplifier, you cannot
use the full capability of the MD-185X.
• If you attempt to perform digital
recording using a digital input terminal
which is not connected, “D.In Unlock”
will appear.
• Terminal protection caps are attached to
the DIGITAL IN terminals. Remove the

Inserting the remote control
batteries
Remove the battery compartment cover by
opening it as shown in the illustration. Load
two R6 (UM-3) AA size batteries into the
remote control with the plus (+) and minus
(–) terminals positioned as indicated by the
diagram inside the battery compartment and
close the cover.
• Remove dead batteries immediately to
avoid corrosion damage.
• To avoid potential corrosion damage,
never mix old batteries with new ones.
• The manganese batteries supplied with
this unit have a service life of approximately six months, depending on
frequency of usage.
• This unit comes equipped with R6
(UM-3) AA manganese batteries, but
we recommend that long-life alkaline
batteries LR6 (AM-3) AA be used
when replacing the batteries.
Using the remote control
The following information will help you
get optimum use from the remote control.
• Place this unit away from direct bright
light, which can prevent proper
operation of the remote control.
• Make sure audio rack doors do not have
coloured glass. If this unit is placed
behind such a door, this may prevent
proper remote control operation.
• Using other remote controls in the same
room as this unit remote control may
cause interference.
