B stacking

Never place heavy items on top of the unit or the power cord.

B Voltage

• It is very dangerous to use an AC power source of high voltage such as for an

air conditioner. A fire might be caused by such a connection.

•A DC power source can not be used.

Be sure to check the power source carefully, especially if on a ship or other place where DC is used.

B Power cord protection

•Avoid cuts, scratches or poor connection of the AC main cord, as this may result in fire or electric shock. Excessive bending, pulling or slicing of the cord should also be avoided,

•Do not pull on the cord when you are disconnecting the power, as this could cause an electric shock. Grasp the plug firmly when you disconnect the power supply.

•Never touch the plug with wet hands or a serious electric shock could result.

B Foreign materials

• Ensure that no foreign objects, such as needles, coins, screwdrivers etc,, accidentally fail into the unit or through the ventilation holes. Otherwise, a serious electric shock or malfunction could occur.

• Be extremely careful about spilling water or liquid on/into the unit, as a fire or electric shock could occur. (Disconnect the power plug and contact your dealer immediately if this occurs.)

•Avoid spraying insecticides onto the unit as they contain flammable gases which can be ignited.

•Insecticides, alcohol, paint thinner and similar chemicals should never be

used to dean the unit as they can cause flaking or cloudiness to the cabinet finish.

B Service

• Never attempt to repair, disassemble or reconstruct the unit if there seems to be a problem. A serious electric shock could result if you ignore this precautionary measure.

•If a problem occurs during operation (the sound is interrupted, indicators fail to light up. smoke is detected, etc.) contact your dealer or Authorized Service Center immediately.

•Disconnect the power supply if the unit will not be used for a long time.

Otherwise the operation life could be shortened.

Cautions on moving your stereo:

Before moving your stereo to another location, be sure to remove alt discs from the rack and turn off the stereo. The changer mechanism automatically locks when the system is turned off, to protect it against damage in transport. Therefore, always press POWER and make sure “GOOD BYE" appears on the display before you unplug the stereo.

Failure to do so will expose the compact discs and the stereo to the risk

of severe damage.

• Do not put anything other than discs in the changer.

•Do not set a disc in the slot of the disc being played (slot flashes). The disc in play is returned to its slot when finished. If the two discs somehow jam the slot, one or both could be damaged. When this happens, the message “TAKE OUT’ will appear on the display.

Remove the disc that doesn’t belong in the slot and close the rack panel.

How to know what disc in what slot

Your changer comes with a notebook-tike binder (liner notes orga nizer) in which you can keep your CD liners. There are also adhesive numbers for indicating slot numbers in the binder. This is a conve nient way to keep track of what disc is in what slot.

Put two liners back-to-back inside each pocket, as shown above.

Do not put CD cases in the binder.

CDs playback modes

With this CD changer, you can playback CDs in the following 2 modes.

• Block mode...Normal sequential playback (page 13).

• Group mode...Only CDs registered in the selected group are played back (page 15),

DIGITAL AUDIO

Handling precautions

To open the compact disc case, gently press the sides of the top and pull up. To remove the disc from the case, press the center holder and lift the disc, holding by the edges.

Concerning cassette tapes

Selection of cassette tapes

Cassette tapes exceeding 100 minutes:

These tapes are handy for their long playback and recording time but

be careful about repeatedly stopping and starting, rewinding and fast forwarding these tapes in short intervals as they are thin, tend to stretch and may become entangled in the deck mechanism.

Endless-tapes:

Failure to operate these tapes correctly may cause the tape to wind

around the revolving parts.

For this unit, it is recommended to use the tape which is appropriate

to the auto reverse mechanism.

Tape slack

To return the disc to the case, insert the disc with the label facing up and press downward at the center.

Hold compact discs by the edges so as not to soil the surface with fingerprints. Fingerprints, dirt and scratches can cause skipping and distortion.

Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzine, thinner, static electricity

prevention liquids or any other solvent on a disc.

If the surface is soiled, wipe gently with a soft, damp (water only)

cloth.

Always move the cloth directly outward from the center of the disc,

not in a circular motion as with standard phonograph records.

If you are taking the disc from a cold to a warm environment, moisture may form on the disc. Wipe this off with a soft, dry, tint-free cloth before using the disc.

Tape slack may cause the tape to break.

Erasure prevention

Remove the tab(s).

To re-record on a protected cassette

Cover the slot with adhesive tape.

Do not write on the label side with a bail-point pen or other writing

instrument.

Storage precautions

Be sure to store discs in their cases to protect them from dust, scratches, and warping.

Do not place or store discs in the following places;

1 ) Locations exposed to direct sunlight

2) Humid or dusty iocations

3) Locations directly exposed to a heat vent or heating appliance

4) in the glove compartment or on the rear deck of an automobile

Do not cover the detection holes on high position and metal position

tapes.

Tape storage

Tapes can be damaged if stored in places such as those described

below.

•Where the temperature is high (35“C or higher) or where the humid ity is high (80% or higher)

•Where there is a strong magnetic field (near a speaker, on top of a TV, etc.). Recording may become erased.

• In direct sunlight

Maintenance

Maintenance of external surfaces

To dean this unit, use a soft, dry cloth.

If the surfaces are extremely dirty, use a soft cloth dipped in a soap-and-water solution or a weak detergent solution.

Wring the cloth well before wiping the system. Wipe once again with a soft, dry cloth.

Never use alcohol, paint thinner, benzine, or chemically treated cloths to clean this system. Such chemicals may damage the finish of your system.

Tape head care

To assure sound quality for recording and playback, be sure to clean

the tape heads after approximately every 10 hours of use.

1. Press ^ OPEN to open the cassette holder.

2. Press POWER to put your stereo on standby.

3. Clean the heads, pinch roller and the capstan shaft with a cotton swab (or with a soft, lint-free cloth) slightly moistened with isopro pyl alcohol. Do not use any solution other than alcohol for head cleaning.
