POWER SOURCE
• AC Power
1 Set AC voltage selector to the voltage in your area. Loosen screw securing voltage selector panel, slide panel until correct voltage range appears, and tighten screw.
2 Connect AC power lead to AC power input, then connect
AC power lead plug to an AC outlet.
• When this unit is not in use, also before attempting any in-
ternal examination, pull the mains plug out of the AC outlet.
• AC Plug Adaptor
In areas (or countries) where an AC outlet as shown in illustra-
tion is used, connect the unit using the AC plug adaptor supplied with the unit as illustrated.
• Battery Power
1 Remove AC power lead, and remove battery compartment
cover.
2 Load 10 UM/SUM-1 or R 20 batteries into the main bat-
tery compartment and 1 UM/SUM-3 or R 6 battery into the timer
battery compartment, observing the polarity shown on the rear
panel and inside the battery compartment.
3 Replace battery compartment cover.
Note for main batteries
• Replace batteries if recordings start distorting.
• Replace all batteries at same time.
• Remove batteries if unit is not in use.
• Using AC power lead disconnects batteries.
• Don't mix normal batteries with Ni-Cd, alkaline, or other
types.
• When the batteries become weak, recording may become
impossible, even though radio broadcasts may be audible. All
batteries should be replaced at once.
Note for timer battery
• Normal battery life is approximately one year. Replace the
battery when the clock/timer display dims.
• Be sure to insert the battery with polarities properly aligned.
Improper insertion may damage the timer and display.
Car Battery Power
This unit can be operated in cars with a DC 12V battery and
a negative ground. For this purpose, use car battery adaptor
(not supplied). The centre pin of the DC 1 5 V socket is a nega-
tive polarity.
Attach the car battery adaptor as shown at left.
• Using car battery adaptor disconnects batteries.

SPEAKERS
1 Align the channels on the speakers with the guides on the
main unit.
2 Slide the speakers down into position until the tops of the
speakers and main unit are flush.
3 Slide the release lever as shown in the illustration to lock
the speaker.
4 Pull the speaker leads out enough to reach the SPEAKERS
terminals. Connect the leads with the stripe to the (-) and the
other leads to the (+) terminals. Fit the speaker leads into the

• Removing the speakers
1 Disconnect the leads from the SPEAKERS terminals.
2 Slide the release lever as shown in the illustration to unlock the speaker, and then pull the speakers up and off the main
unit.
3 Pull the speaker leads out as far as necessary and connect
them to the SPEAKERS terminals.
SETTING THE CLOCK
Turn the POWER switch OFF/SLEEP before connecting the speakers.
Caution
• Maximum speaker input is 100 W (PMPO) or 26 W (RMS).
The speakers could be damaged if used with an amplifier producing greater than 100 W (PMPO) or 26 W (RMS).
• Do not short circuit the amplifier speaker outputs or speaker inputs as this could damage the amplifier and/or speakers.
• Speakers with less than 8 ohms impedance should not be used as the amplifier could be damaged.

RADIO OPERATION
1 Turn the power switch on.
2 Set FUNCTION switch to RADIO.
3 Set BAND switch to FM, MW, SW1, or SW2.
4 Use TUNING control to tune the desired station.
The FINE TUNING control functions only for SW1 and SW2
bands.
5 For FM broadcasts, raise and extend telescopic rod anten-
na, then adjust position and length for best reception. For SW1
or SW2, raise antenna vertically to full height. For MW or SW 1,
move and rotate unit for best sound.
6 Set FM MODE switch to STEREO for FM stereo; if sound
is poor, set FM MODE switch to MONO.
7 Set POWER switch to OFF/SLEEP.
Aerial Adjustment Instructions
For Receiving FM Broadcasts
Raise and extend the telescopic
rod antenna. Adjust the position and length of the antenna
until FM broadcast reception
is best.
For Receiving SW1 or SW2
Broadcasts
Raise and extend the telescopic
rod antenna vertically to its full
length.
For Receiving MW Broadcasts
Rotate or locate the unit to
receive peak signal strength of
the MW broadcast.
SOUND CONTROL
Moving VOLUME controls (LEFT and RIGHT) towards MAX increases listening level, and MIN decreases level.
The loudness circuit is activated when the volume is low to
emphasize highs and lows.
Moving a control for any frequency toward + 10 boosts level
for that frequency, and -10 lowers level.
The spectrum analyzer indicates the frequency band of the play-
back source. Adjustments made with the graphic equalizer will
be reflected in the spectrum analyzer.

CASSETTE OPERATION
• Be sure to use quality tapes for best results.
• The use of tapes longer than C-90 (90 minutes) is not
recommended.
• Before loading tape into cassette compartment, tighten
slack tape with pen or pencil.
• Cassettes have removable tabs which allow recording to
take place. Removing tab on top left protects side facing up
from erasure. Cover tab holes with adhesive tape to erase or
record again.
• TAPE 1: Playback only.
TAPE 2: Playback or recording.
(1) If PLAY is pressed and STOP/EJECT is then pressed while
there is no power (AC cord is not connected, no batteries installed) and the power is then turned on and FAST WIND is
pressed, the tape will momentarily advance at normal play-
back speed with audio output before fast-forwarding begins.
(2) When battery power drops, the tape may not advance even
if RECORD or PLAY is pressed. Also, the cassette compartment may not open when STOP/EJECT is pressed. Replace
the batteries or use the AC cord.
TAPE 1 and TAPE 2 functions differ. Refer to the table below for proper use and differentiation of tape functions.

nal amplifier.
Page 15
MAINTENANCE
• Dirty heads, capstans and pinch rollers cause poor sound
and tape jams. Clean these parts with cotton swab moistened
with commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alchohol.
• After long use, the deck's heads and capstans will become
magnetised, which causes poor sound. Demagnetise these
parts once every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using
commercial tape deck demagnetiser. Read demagnetiser's instructions carefully before using.
• Periodically wipe cabinet clean with soft cloth and dilute
soap solution, then wipe with dry cloth.
• Do not use chemically treated cleaning cloths or other chemicals. (See Cautions.)
