Precautions
On safetv
Operate the unit only on 120V AC or 15V DC. For AC operation, use the AC power cord supplied; do not use any other type.
For battery operation, use ten size D (R20) batteries.
- Unplug the unit from the wall outlet when it is not to be used for an extended period of time.
- When the internal batteries are not to be used, remove them to avoid damage caused by battery leakage and corrosion.
- As the laser beam used in the CD player section is harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the casing. Refer servicing to gualified personnel only.
- Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug the unit, and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
On installation
- Do not leave the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical shock.
- If the unit is left in a car parked in the sun, be sure to choose a location in the car where the unit will not be subject to the direct rays of the sun.
- Do not place anything within 10 mm of the side of the cabinet. The ventilation holes must be unobstructed for the proper operation of the unit and to prolong the life of its components.
- Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep personal credit cards using magnetic coding or springwound watches away from the unit to prevent possible damage from the magnet.
On operation
- If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lenses inside the CD player section. Should this occur, the player will not operate properly. In this case, remove the disc and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.
- If the unit has not been used for a long time, set it in the playback mode to warm it up for a few minutes before inserting a cassette.
- The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes is not recommended except for long continuous recording or playback.
Whether you are going to operate the unit on AC power or on batteries, make sure to insert three size AA (R6) batteries for the clock/timer/memory functions.
- If a cassette cannot be removed If the power was accidentally cut off (for example, the AC power cord was disconnected, the batteries fell out or an interruption of the main power source occurred) after ▶, REC or HI-SPEED DUB was pressed, it may not be possible to eject the cassette. In this case, supply power to the unit again and then press ■ ▲ to remove the cassette.
- If the cassette holder cannot be closed firmly Press ▲ to remove the cassette and reinsert it into the holder. Do not attempt to play back or record when the cassette holder is not firmly closed. Otherwise, the cassette may be damaged.

Maintenance
Cleaning the heads and tape path
Contaminated heads cause insufficient recording or sound drop-out in playback.
We recommend cleaning after every 10 hours of operation. To make the best possible recordings, however, you should clean all surfaces over which tape travels before making each recording.
Wipe the heads, the pinch rollers and the capstans with a cleaning tip slightly moistened with cleaning fluid or alcohol.
After cleaning the heads, rollers and tape path, insert a cassette when the areas cleaned are completely dry.
Demagnetizing heads
After 20 to 30 hours of use, enough residual magnetism will have built up on the heads to begin to cause loss of high frequencies and hiss. At this time you should demagnetize the heads and all metal parts in the tape path with a commercially available head demagnetizer.
Cleaning the lens
If you have accidentally touched the lens of the CD player section with dirty fingers or the dust has accumulated on the lens, the unit will not operate properly. In such cases, clean the lens with lens cleaning kit (not supplied).
Cleaning the cabinet
Celan the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
