10 cm (4")
● Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration.
● Place the speakers at least 30 cm (12") away from any
CRT TV to avoid colour variations across the TV
screen. If the variations persist, move the speakers
further away from the TV. LCD TV is not prone to such
variation.
● Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong
magnetic fields, excessive dust, humidity and
electronic/electrical equipment (home computers,
facsimiles, etc.) which generate electrical noise.
● Do not place anything on top of the unit.
● Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures
higher than 60°C (140°F) or to extremely low
temperatures.
● If your system does not work properly, disconnect the
AC power lead from the wall socket. Plug the AC power
lead back in, and then turn on your system.
● In case of an electrical storm, unplug the unit for safety.
Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing it
from the wall socket, as pulling the lead can damage
internal wires.
Controls and indicators

stored in memory will not be stored.
● If 40 stations have already been stored in memory, the
scan will be aborted. If you want to redo the ASPM
operation, erase the preset memory.
● If no station have been stored in memory, “END” will
appear for about 4 seconds.
● If the RDS signals are very weak, station names may
not be stored in memory.
● The same station name can be stored in different
channels.
● In a certain area or during certain time periods, the
station names may temporarily be different.
■ Notes for RDS operation
If any of the following events occur, it does not mean
that the unit is faulty:
● “PS”, “No PS” and a station name appear alternately,
and the unit does not operate properly.
● If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a
station is conducting tests, the RDS reception function
may not work properly.
● When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too
weak, information like the station name may not be
displayed.
● “No PS”, “No PTY” or “No RT” will flash for about 5
seconds, and then the frequency will be displayed.
Each time the button is pressed, the programme type
will appear. If the button is held down for more than
0.5 seconds, the programme type will appear
continuously.
4 Whilst the selected programme type is flashing (within
6 seconds), press the RDS PTY button again.
After the selected programme type has been lit for 2
seconds, “SEARCH” will appear, and the search
operation will start.
Notes:
● If the display has stopped flashing, start again from
step 2. If the unit finds a desired programme type, the
corresponding channel number will lit for about
8 seconds, and then the station name will remain it.
● If you want to listen to the same programme type of
another station, press the RDS PTY button whilst the
channel number or station name is flashing. The unit
will look for the next station.
● If no station can be found, “NOT FOUND” will appear
for 4 seconds.
If you select the traffic programme:
If you select the traffic programme (TP) in step 3, “TP” will
appear.
(This does not mean that you can listen to the traffic
information at that time.)
When the traffic information is broadcast, “TA” will appear.

■ Condensation
Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an
extremely humid environment may cause condensation
inside the cabinet (CD pickup, etc.) or on the transmitter on
the remote control. Condensation can cause the unit to
malfunction. If this happens, leave the power on with no
disc in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1
hour). Wipe off any condensation on the transmitter with a
soft cloth before operating the unit.
■ If problem occurs
When this product is subjected to strong external
interference (mechanical shock, excessive static
electricity, abnormal supply voltage due to lightning, etc.)
or if it is operated incorrectly, it may malfunction.
Caution:
This operation will erase all data stored in memory
including clock, timer settings and tuner preset.
■ Before transporting the unit
Remove the iPod, iPhone, iPad, USB memory device and
disc from the unit. Then, set the unit to the power stand-by
mode. Carrying the unit with iPod, iPhone, iPad or USB
memory device left connected or discs left inside might
damage the unit.
■ Care of compact discs
Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however
mistracking can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the
disc surface. Follow the guidelines below for maximum
enjoyment from your CD collection and player.
● Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the
non-label side from which signals are read. Do not
mark this surface.
● Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and
excessive moisture.
● Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or
water on the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a
CD is dirty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft,
dry cloth, wiping straight out from the centre, along the
radius.
