■ Use a standard AC wall outlet

1. Use from an AC power source of high voltage, such as that

used for an air conditioner, is very dangerous.

A fire might be caused by such a connection:

2. A DC power source cannot be used.

Be sure to chec^ the power source carefully, especially on a
ship or other placé where DC is used.

■ Grasp the plug when disconnecting the power

supply cord

1. Wet hands are dangerous.

A dangerous electric shock may result if the plug is touched by
wet hands.

2. Never place heavy items on top of the power suppiy cord,

nor force It to bend sharply.

■ Place the unit where it will be well ventilated

Place this unit at least 10 cm (4") away from wall surfaces, etc.
Be careful that curtains and similar materials do not obstruct the
ventilation holes.

■ Avoid places such as the following:
In direct sunlight or in other places where the temperature is
high.
In places where there is excessive vibration or humidity.

Such conditions might damage the cabinet and/or other component

parts and thereby shorten the unit’s service life.

■ Be sure to place the unit on a flat, level surface.

If the surface is inclined, a malfunction may result.

■ Never attempt to repair nor reconstruct this

urilt

A serious electric shock might occur if this unit is repaired, dis
assembled or reconstructed by unauthorized persons, or if the
internal parts are accidentally touched.

■ Take particular care if children are present

Never permit children to put anything, especially metal, inside this
unit. A serious electric shock or malfunction could occur if articles
such as coins, needles, screwdrivers, etc. are inserted through the
ventilation holes, etc. of this unit.

■ If water is spilled on the unit

Be extremely careful if water is spilled on the unit, because a fire or
serious electric shock might occur. Immediately disconnect the
power cord plug, and consult with your dealer.

■ Avoid spray-type insecticides

Insecticides might cause cracks or “cloudiness” in the cabinet and
plastic parts of this unit. The gas used in such sprays might,
moreover, be ignited suddenly.

■ Never use aicohol or paint thinner

These and similar chemicals should never be used, because they
might cause flaking or cloudiness of the cabinet finish.

■ Disconnect the power supply cord if the unit

will not be used for a long time

If the unit is left for a long time with the power ON, this not only will
shorten its useful operation life, but also may cause other trouble.

Before Use

(For the areas except for Australia and New Zealand)

Be sure to disconnect the mains cord before adjusting the voltage
selector.

Use a minus (-) screwdriver to set the voltage selector (on the
bottom of the tuner amplifier) to the voltage setting for the area in

which the unit will be used.

■ If trouble occurs

If, during operation, the sound is interrupted or indicators no longer
illuminate, or if an abnormal odour or stTK>ke is detected, im
mediately disconnect the power cord plug, and contact with your
dealer or an Authorized Service Center.

(If the power supply in your area is 117 V or 120 V, set to the
“127 V" position.)
Note that this unit will be seriously damaged if this setting is not
made correctly. (There is no voltage selector for some countries;
the correct voltage is already set.)

Battery installation

%

1 Open the cover.

Press gently and slide the cover out.

Insert the batteries included with this system.

When you need to replace these batteries, use two UM-4
“AAA”, lEC R03 (1.5 V) or equivalent batteries.

Use of batteries

Be sure that you insert the batteries so that their positive (+)
and negative (-) polarities match the polarities indicated in the
compartment. Batteries installed incorrectly may leak and
cause damage.

Refer to “Use of batteries” below for additional information.

3 Close the cover.

Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types
(carbon and alkaline, etc.).

The average battery life is about one year. Although the battery life
varies depending on how often the device is used, you should
generally replace the batteries about once a year.

Replace the batteries if commands from the remote control trans
mitter do not operate the unit even when the transmitter is held
close to the front panel.

Never subject batteries to excessive heat or flame; do not attempt
to disassemble them; and be sure they are not short-circuited.

If you will not be using the remote control for a long period of time,

remove the batteries and store them in a cool, dark place.

Operation notes

oo

Tuner amplifier

Aim the remote control's transmission window toward the tuner
amplifier's sensor. Avoid any obstacles.

If a battery leaks, remove all batteries and dispose of them properly.
Thoroughly clean the battery compartment before inserting new
batteries.
If the leaking electrolyte comes into contact with skin or clothes,
flush with water immediately.

Keep batteries out of reach of children.

Do not use rechargeable-type (nickel-cadmium) batteries.

Do not attempt to recharge alkaline or carbon batteries.

Always remove old, weak, or worn-out batteries promptly and dis
pose of them properly.

Do not dispose of used batteries in household rubbish.

Be sure the transmission window and the tuner amplifier's sensor
are free from dust. Excessive dust might prevent reception.

Tuner amplifier

Use the remote control within a 60 degree angle from the tuner
amplifier.

The reachable distance is within 7 meters directly facing toward the
tuner amplifier.

If direct sunlight or other strong light source strikes the remote

control signal sensor part of the tuner amplifier, it may impair the

remote control's operation. If there is a problem, place the tuner
amplifier away from the light source.

If this system is installed in a rack with glass doors, the glass doors'

thickness or color might make it necessary to use the remote

control a shorter distance from the system.

Automatic memory presetting

When you preset broadcast frequencies to the memory, you can
then easily select any of those broadcast frequencies by pressing
one of the preset-tuning buttons on the unit or remote control. There
are two methods for presetting broadcast frequencies in the mem

When this method is used, the frequencies of the selected broad
cast stations are automatically preset (in sequence from lower to

higher frequencies) into memory; “channels" 1 to 39 are available

for the presetting of FM stations, and "channels” 21 to 39 are

available for MW stations, and “channels" 31 to 39 are available for
LW stations.

When you preset a broadcast station to a channel that has already

been preset, the prior presetting will be erased, so if, for example,
FM frequencies are preset to channel 1 to 39 and then MW frequen
cies are preset, the first MW frequency will be preset to channel 29
(thus erasing the FM presetting to channel 29), the second MW
frequency will be preset to 30 (erasing FM 30), and so on.

Switch ON the power.
(Step 1 also available from the remote control)

1 Press BAND to select FM.

Each time you press BAND, "FM”, “MW”, “LW’ will appear in

order.

■ About the Dolby Noise Reduction system

Using Dolby NR reduces tape hiss in the high-frequency range. It

boosts the level of the high-frequency during recording, and iowers

it by the same amount during playback, simultaneously reducing
high-frequency noise incurred during the recording process.

B type:
Noise is reduced to about ^/b. Use this type when playing a tape in
the Dolby NR mode.
Ctype:

Noise is reduced to about Vio. Use this type when recording and
piaying back a high quaiity, high dynamic range source such as a
CD or FM broadcast.

Edit-Recording from Compact Discs

You can edit up to 20 tracks.
Using the edit-recording safeguards against a break in the continu

ity of the sound when the recording changes from one side of the
tape to the other.
Before recording, the cassette deck will automatically rewind the
tape to the beginning and make a non-recorded passage of about
10 seconds, then stop.

Sequential CD recording (ALBUM)

The tape length indicated on the cassette tape is slightly shorter
than the actual tape length. In this sequential editing mode, the
cassette deck will fast-forward and rewind the tape in order to make
a rough estimate of the tape length. After making an estimate, the
cassette deck starts recording to calculate the actual tape length.

If the system determines it is possible to record one more track on

side A, the cassette deck rewinds the tape side A to the end of the

last track recorded and the first track assigned on the tape side B

will be recorded on the tape side A.

So you don't have to set the cassette tape to the starting position
before recording.
In any of the following edit-recording functions, you can record with
desired tone and effect.
See pages 54-59.
When playing back such recordings, press ON/FLAT on the sound

Notes:

•You cannot record the tracks of more than track number 20 using
the sequential CD recording.

•Use a tape of under 99 minutes.

About Automatic Tape Level Setting (ATLS)

Since compact discs generally have a wide dynamic range, careful

setting of the recording level is required to achieve optimum record

ing results.

This system automatically scans (fast search) for the peak (highest)

level of the entire disc, and the tape deck then sets the appropriate
recording level. During this period, the peak level sound will not be
heard.

It takes about 80 seconds to complete ATLS with a compact disc of
60 minutes.

The compact disc player also stops.

Fit editing (J. FiT)

The system specifies the track order that fits on tape side "A".

Like the sequential CD recording, first the system estimates thé
length of the cassette tape. After making an estimate, the cassette
deck starts recording to calculate the actual tape length.
If the amount of blank tape is too great, the compact disc player
selects a different track order that best fits on tape side "A", and
then the cassette deck rewinds the tape side A to the point where
re-recording will start.

Gare & Use

Concerning Cassette Tapes

■ Selection of cassette tapes

Cassette tape exceeding 90 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 machine.

Do not use the following types of tapes in this unit.
Fe-Cr tapes (TYPE UI)

This type emphasizes the high-frequency range, making it impossi
ble to obtain a flat frequency response.

Metal tape without detection holes in the cassette

Recordings will be very distorted. (There is no problem during

playback, however.)

■ To prevent erasure of recorded sounds

Remove the erase-prevention tabs (thus preventing recording).

■ Tape slack

Tape slack may cause the tape to break.

■ Improper tape storage

You can damage tape if you store it in the following ways;

•In high temperature [35°C (95°F) or higher] or high humidity (80%
or higher) areas.

• In a strong magnetic field (near a speaker, on top of a TV, etc.).
This can erase a recording.

•In direct sunlight.

Cover the slot with adhesive tape.

To remove the disc from the case, press the center holder and lift
the disc holding it by the edges.

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

•Hold compact discs by the edges so you will not soil the surface
with fingerprints. Fingerprints, dirt, and scratches can cause skip
ping and distortion.

ûm

Dien’AL AUDIO

•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,
lint-free cloth before using the disc.

•Do not write on the label side with a ball-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 locations.

3) Locations directly exposed to a heat outlet or heating appli
ance.

4) In the glove compartment or rear ledge of an automobile.

•Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzine, thinner, static elec
tricity prevention liquids, or any other solvent.

•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.

tened with alcohol.
Do not use any solution other than alcohol for head cleaning.

■ Head demagnetization

•In order to maintain good sound quality during recording and
playback, it is recommended that the heads should be demagne

tized if distortion or poor sound quality persist after cleaning the
heads.

• If the heads become magnetized, they could create noise in

recordings, loss of high-frequency response, or erasure of valu
able recordings. Several types of head demagnetizers are avail
able and may be purchased at local electronics supply stores.
Follow the instructions that are supplied with the device.

•Do not bring any type of metal objects or tools such as magnetic
screwdrivers in contact with the head assembly.

■ Maintenance of external surfaces

•To clean this unit, use a soft, dry cloth.

For very dirty surfaces, dip a soft cloth in a weak soap-and-water
solution and wring well. After cleaning, wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

•Never use alcohol, paint thinner, benzine, or a chemically treated
cloth to clean this unit.

Such chemicals may damage the system's finish.
