3.Heed Warnings — All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.
4.Follow Instructions — All operating and use instructions should be followed.
5.Water and Moisture — The appliance should not be used near water — for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.
6.Carts and Stands — The appliance should be used only with a

6A. — An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
PORTABLE CART WARNING
S3125A
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 book case or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings, there should be free space of at least 20 cm (8 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.
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.

1.Warranty Card
The serial number is written on the rear panel of this unit. (Write the serial number and model number onto your warranty card and keep it in a safe place.)
2.Recording Copyright
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is illegal without permission of the copyright holder.
3.Deck Location
•Do not use or leave in direct sunlight or in other places subject to high temperature and humidity. The unit should also not be left in potentially hot places such as near heating appliances. Excessive heat and moisture can lead to internal damage and serious malfunctions (this also applies to
cassette tapes). The recommended ambient temperature range is 5°C to 35°C.
•Avoid damp and dusty places and locations prone to vibrations.
•Be extremely careful with the recording/playback heads. Clean and demagnetize them regularly, but under no circumstances should magnets or other metals be used anywhere near the heads.
•This unit is extremely sensitive to magnetic fields, so do not use near large speakers or other devices which generate magnetic fields.
•Hum may even be induced by magnetic flux leakage from the power transformer in certain amplifiers. Therefore, this unit should also be kept clear of the amplifier.
•Do not remove the cabinet case. If any of the internal parts are handled, there is a considerable danger of electric shock.
4.Cassettes to Avoid:
•Cassettes with poorly formed cases that rattle during rewind and fast forward.
•Low cost cassettes with no guide roller or pressure pad spring should never be used for stereo.
•C-120 cassettes — because the tape and the coating are extremely thin, distortion levels are high. Also, even a slight stretching of the tape will make it susceptible to being caught up in the pinch roller and capstan.
•Endless tapes, if used for a long period of time, can overheat.
5.Power WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
•Some models are designed for use only with the power supply voltage of the region where they are sold.
European models: |
AC 230V, 50Hz |
U.S.A. and Canadian models: |
AC 120V, 60Hz |
Worldwide models: |
AC 120 and 220-230V |
|
switchable, 50/60Hz |
• Voltage Selector (Rear Panel)
Worldwide models are equipped with a voltage selector to conform with local power supplies. Be sure to set this switch to match the power supply in your area before plugging in the unit. Models without a voltage selector can only be used in areas where the power supply voltage is the same as that of the unit.
