English
Set this system allowing enough spaces around and behind the main unit to assure good ventilation. Be sure not to place another unit or any object on top of the main unit to prevent the ventilation holes on the top panel from being obstructed. Otherwise, it may cause fire or damage to the main unit.
Note: When placing the speakers apart from the main unit, be sure to allow a space of at least 20 cm above, behind and on both sides of the main unit. If
the main unit is put in a rack, the front of it must be fully opened.
Français
Installer ce système en laissant assez d’espace autour et derrière l’appareil principal pour assurer une bonne ventilation. Veiller à ne pas empiler un autre appareil ou un autre objet sur l’appareil principal afin de ne pas boucher les orifices de ventilation du panneau supérieur. Sinon, on risquerait de provoquer un incendie ou d’endommager l’appareil principal.
Remarque: Lorsqu’on place les enceintes à une certaine distance de l’appareil principal, veiller à laisser un espace d’au moins 20 cm au-dessus, derrière
et sur les deux côtés de l’appareil principal.
Deutsch
Stellen Sie das System so auf, daß um und hinter dem Gerät genügend freier Raum vorhanden ist, um eine ausreichende Belüftung zu gewährleisten. Es dürfen keine anderen Geräte oder Gegenstände auf das Gerät gestellt werden, weil die Belüftungsschlitze an der Geräteoberseite nicht abgedeckt werden dürfen. Bei abgedeckten Belüftungsöffnungen kann ein Brand verursacht werden oder das Gerät kann beschädigt werden.
Hinweis: Wenn die Lautsprecher vom Gerät entfernt aufgestellt werden, muß ein freier Abstand von mindestens 20 cm über, hinter und auf beiden Seiten des
Gerätes vorhanden sein. Wenn das Gerät in einem Regal oder Schrank aufgestellt wird, so muß die Vorderseite vollständig geöffnet sein.
Si l’on place l’appareil principal dans un meuble, veiller à ce que le côté avant du meuble soit grand ouvert.
Svenska
Vid placeringen av anläggningen, skall du se till att det finns tillräckligt med fritt utrymme runt om samt bakom huvudapparaten, för att tillförsäkra en bra ventilation. Var noga med att inte ställa någon annan apparat ell11er något föremål ovanpå huvudapparaten för att förhindra att ventilationshålen på ovansidan blir blockerade. Annars kan huvudapparaten utsättas för brand eller skadas på annat sätt.
Anmärkning: När högtalarna ställs separat från huvudapparaten, skall du förvissa dig om att det finns ett fritt utrymme på minst 20 cm ovanför, bakom och på
huvudapparatens båda sidor. Om huvudapparaten placeras i en stereomöbel, måste möbelns framsida lämnas helt öppen.
Italiano
Installare il sistema lasciando sufficiente spazio intorno e dietro all’apparecchio centrale per garantire una ventilazione sufficiente. Evitare assolutamente di posizionare altri dispositivi o oggetti sulla parte superiore dell’apparecchio centrale onde evitare di ostruirne le aperture per la ventilazione presenti sul lato superiore. In caso contrario possono verificarsi incendi, o l’apparecchio può subire danni.
Nota: Se si installano gli altoparlanti lontano dall’apparecchio principale, quest’ultimo deve essere posizionato in modo da avere almeno 20 cm di spazio libero sopra,
dietro e suoi due lati. Se si installa l’apparecchio principale in uno scaffale, il lato anteriore dello scaffale deve essere completamente aperto.
Español
Instale el sistema dejando suficiente espacio alrededor y detrás de la unidad principal para garantizar una buena circulación de aire. No instale otro aparato o un objeto encima de la unidad principal porque obstruirá los orificios de salida de aire en el panel superior. Puede provocar un fuego o dañar la unidad principal.
Nota: Cuando instale los altavoces alejados de la unidad principal, asegúrese de dejar un espacio de por lo menos 20 cm encima, detrás y a ambos lados de la
unidad principal.
Si se coloca la unidad principal dentro de un mueble, no debe cerrar la tapa delantera.
Nederlands
Zorg ervoor bij de opstelling van dit systeem dat er voldoende ruimte rondom en aan de achterzijde van de hoofdeenheid is voor het verkrijgen van een goede ventilatie. Plaats geen andere apparatuur of voorwerpen bovenop de hoofdeenheid om te voorkomen dat de ventilatieopeningen in het bovenpaneel geblokkeerd raken. Anders kan dit brandgevaar en beschadiging van de hoofdeenheid veroorzaken.
Opmerking: Bij het opstellen van de luidsprekers op afstand van de hoofdeenheid, een ruimte van tenminste 20 cm aan de bovenzijde, achterzijde en aan de
linker en rechter zijde van de hoofdeenheid open laten.
Als de hoofdeenheid in een rek wordt geplaatst, dient de voorzijde ervan volledig open te zijn.

Precautions: Read this before operating your system
English
To assure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
Choose the installation location of this system carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep it away from sources of hum such as transformers and electric motors.
Do not operate this system upside-down. It may overheat, possibly causing damage.
Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact your dealer.
The openings on the main unit cover assure proper ventilation of the main unit. If these openings are obstructed, the temperature inside the unit will rise rapidly. Therefore, avoid placing objects against these openings, and install the main unit in a well-ventilated area to prevent fire and damage.
Always set the VOLUME control to minimum before starting an audio source play: increase the volume gradually to an appropriate level after play has started.
When not planning to use this system for long periods of time (ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.
Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or polarization of this system is not defeated.
Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires. When moving the main unit, first disconnect the power plug and the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the wire itself.
If an external appliance (TV, radio, etc.) interferes with this system operation, move the main unit away from such an appliance.
Do not attempt to clean this system with chemical solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section regarding common operating errors before concluding that this system is faulty.
To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug and the antenna cable when there is an electrical storm.
Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket before you finish all connections.
Never allow metallic items (e.g. screwdrivers, tools, etc.) to come near the tape deck’s record/playback head assembly. Doing so may not only scratch or damage the head’s mirror-smooth finish, it may change the magnetic characteristics of the heads, causing a deterioration in reproduction performance quality.
Although the tape deck’s record/playback heads are high quality heads with outstanding reproduction characteristics, they can become dirty through the use of old tapes or from dust accumulation over time. This can have a serious effect on reproduction quality. Clean the heads regularly with one of the commonly available head cleaners or with cleaning solutions.
The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on this system. Using this system with a higher voltage than specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other types of accidents causing damage. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from use of this system with a voltage other than specified.
The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker location and other factors. Care should be taken to avoid exposure to sudden high levels of sound, which may occur when turning on this system with the volume control setting at high, and to continuous high levels of sound.
Sudden temperature changes and storage or operation in an extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet. Condensation can cause this system to malfunction.
To eliminate condensation:
CD pickup/MD pickup
Leave the power on with no disc loaded until normal play becomes possible (about 1 hour).
Tape head
Leave the power on with no tape loaded until normal playback becomes possible (about 1 hour).
Note
If condensation forms on the tape head, dirt or dust may accumulate during use.
Remote control
Wipe off condensation on the transmission window with a soft cloth before operating this system.
To prevent a malfunction of this system:
Do not use any non standard shaped compact disc
(heart etc.) available on the market, because it may damage this system. Do not use a compact disc with tape, seals, or paste
on it, because damage to this system may result.
This system is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this system itself is turned off. This state is called the standby mode. In this state, this system is designed to consume a certain level of power.
Note
Please check the copyright laws in your country to record from records, compact discs, minidiscs, radio, etc. Record­ing of copyright material may infringe copyright laws.

Memory back-up
The memory back-up circuit prevents the programmed data from being lost even if the AC supply lead is disconnected from the AC outlet or the power is cut due to temporary power failure. If, however, the power is cut for more than one week, the memory may be erased. If so, it can be re-programmed by simply following the Preset tuning steps.
Notes
The automatic preset tuning search will be performed
through all frequencies until 40 stations are stored. If the number of received stations is less than 40, the search will stop after searching all frequencies. * Since FM stations are searched for first, there may be a
case that 40 preset stations are occupied by FM stations only.
The tuner is originally set to search only RDS stations
instead of all FM stations by this operation. (FM stations that employ no RDS network service cannot be programmed.) However, you can change the setting so that the tuner can program not only RDS stations but also other FM stations. (Refer to page 21 for details.)
With this function, only stations with sufficient signal
strength are stored automatically. If the station you want to program is weak in signal strength, tune in to it with the Manual tuning method (in monaural) and program it by following the procedure of the section “To store stations” on the previous page.
You can replace a preset station with another FM or AM
station manually by simply following the procedure of the section “To store stations” on the previous page.

Receiving RDS stations

RDS (Radio Data System) is a data transmission system employed by FM stations in many countries. Stations using this system transmit an inaudible stream of data in addition to the normal radio signal. RDS data contains various information, such as PI (Program Identification), PS (Program Service name), PTY (Program Type), RT (Radio Text), CT (Clock Time), etc. RDS function is carried out among the network stations. * The built-in tuner utilizes PS, PTY, RT and CT to receive
RDS broadcast stations.

m Changing the RDS modes
When an RDS station is received, by pressing FREQ PS/PTY/ RT/CT once or more, you can change the display mode
among the RDS modes employed by the received station in the order shown on the next page. (The RDS mode not employed by the station cannot be selected.)
Notes
If the received station is not an RDS station, pressing
FREQ PS/PTY/RT/CT displays “NO RDS” on the display, and then it returns to the frequency display mode.
When an RDS station is received, the display is automatically turned into the PS mode. Do not press FREQ PS/PTY/RT/CT until the display is turned into the PS mode. If the button is pressed before the display mode changes, it may occur that “NO PS” appears on the display. This is because the tuner has not received all of the RDS data on the station yet.

The name of the station being received is displayed using characters selected from among 64 Roman Alphabets including umlaut sign. * If other characters are used on the PS data, they are replaced by
underbars. * “PS WAIT” may flash while the tuner is receiving the data. * If the station does not employ the PS data service, “NO PS” lights up on

Notes
RDS data service cannot be used if the received signal is not strong enough. Especially, the RT (Radio Text mode) needs much data to be received, so it may occur that RT mode cannot be displayed even if other RDS modes (PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed.
There may be a case that RDS data reception is not possible due to poor reception conditions. In such a case, press AUTO/MANUAL to make tuning manually. Though the reception mode is changed to monaural by this operation, when you change the display to an RDS mode, RDS data may be displayed.
If the signal strength gets weakened by external interference during receiving an RDS station, the RDS data service may be cut off suddenly and turn into the frequency display mode.
5 CT (Clock Time) mode
Current time is displayed in the following form. The CT data from the station being received changes every minute.
Hour
The tuner corrects the time of the built-in clock by synchronizing it with the CT data. (This function can also be canceled, if so desired. Refer to page 21 for details.) * “CT WAIT” may flash while the tuner is receiving the data. If the data is
accidentally cut off, “CT WAIT” may flash and then turn into “NO CT”.
* If the RDS station does not employ the CT data service, “NO CT” lights up
on the display for about 2 seconds and then returns to the frequency display mode. If the station has PS data, after that, it turnsinto the PS mode.

built-in clock is synchronized with the time setting of the country.
* If the built-in clock is not yet set for the current time or
reset due to a power failure etc., it will be set for the time of the CT data automatically, whether this setting is ON or OFF.
2 ON (OFF) LOCAL > CT
If the RDS station being received employs the local time (summer time etc.) data service, its time is displayed in the CT mode. * If the setting of function 1 is “ON”, the built-in clock is
synchronized with the local time data.
3 ON (OFF) A. M. – RDS (AUTO MEMORY > RDS)
Only RDS stations are searched instead of all FM stations by the automatic preset tuning operation when the setting is ON. (Refer to page 17 for the operating procedure.)

Care of MDs
• Do not expose the MD to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as there can be a considerable rise in temperature inside the car.
• Periodically remove dust and debris from the cartridge surface by wiping it with a dry cloth.
• Because the MD itself is housed in a cartridge, you can handle it normally without being concerned about dirt or fingerprints. However, a malfunction may result if the cartridge itself is dirty or warped.
• Do not open the shutter to expose the MD.

Recording to MD

The MD recorder allows you to make recordings from a wide variety of program sources (both analog and digital). When recording an analog source (such as an LP or tape), the MD recorder converts the analog signals to 44.1 kHz digital signal before recording them onto the MD. When recording a digital source, the MD recorder converts the digital signals to 44.1 kHz for recording onto the MD. However, If you are recording a 44.1 kHz source signal (such as a CD) there is no conversion. The MD recorder can record 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz digital signals.
Note Adjusting the VOLUME, B ASS and TREBLE controls , YMERSION, B. BOOST and MUSIC buttons have no effect on
the recorded sound. The recording level is automatically adjusted.

Track-marking

The MD recorder provides both automatic and manual methods for the track number-marking.
Automatic (default setting)
When making a recording, the track-marking is made automatically.
Manual
To make the track-marking manually, press M-MARK on the remote control repeatedly until “MANUAL” ( illuminated.
When recording analog signals (from tapes, radio programs, etc.)
Automatic:
Track numbers are written in synchronization with the input level of the signal being recorded. During recording, if no sound is detected for more than 1.5 seconds, the recorder interprets this to be a gap between two tracks. When the source signal is detected again, a track number is automatically written.
Manual:
One track number is written automatically when you start recording, but none are written during recording. To mark a track number, press M-MARK at the desired position while recording.
Note
When using the manual method, the marks must be set at least 4 seconds apart.
When recording digital signals (from CDs, etc.)
Track numbers are written in the same positions as the original source (CDs, etc.) with either automatic or manual track-marking method. To add additional track numbers, select the manual track-marking method and press M-MARK at the desired position while recording.
8) is
Notes about TOC
TOC (Table of Contents) is the non-audio data contained on all minidiscs (track numbers, play time, title data, etc.) When you make recording onto an MD, the TOC data is automatically renewed. When the message “TOC Reading” or “TOC Writing”, etc. is shown on the display, it means that the MD recorder is reading the TOC data on an MD, or recording TOC data onto an MD. During this period, do not make an operation on the MD recorder, do not disconnect the power cord of this system, or do not shake this system to prevent a misoperation of the MD recorder.

Editing an MD

Editing and titling MD

One of the main advantages of MD is its editing capabilities, you can remove the commercials from a radio broadcast, arrange songs into the order you want, remove songs, combine songs, even remove part of a song.
The MD recorder offers the following editing functions.
Erase
Lets you erase a track, the entire disc, or part of a track. You can also erase the title of a disc, or the titles of tracks on a disc.
Move
Lets you move a track to a different track number.
Combine
Lets you combine two adjacent tracks.
Divide
Lets you split a single track into two different tracks.
TOC Write
Lets you write TOC information to the disc so that changes are saved.
FRA Check
Lets you recover disc space that may have been lost after repeated editing operations.
Undo
Lets you undo the previous editing operation if you make a mistake.
Notes on editing
Before editing
Make sure that the MD is not protected against erasure. If the MD is protected, you cannot edit the MD. Slide the tab to close the slot on the side of the MD.
After editing
Use the TOC Write function, or press and pull the MD out in order to update the TOC information.
Note
After performing an editing operation, “TOC” ( on the display to show that the TOC information has not yet been written to the disc. Undo is possible only when “TOC”
9) is illuminated.

m To undo the editing
The Undo function lets you immediately return to the condition before an editing is made (note; you cannot undo the editing once you press any other button).
m Disc Maintenance
The MD recorder features two disc maintenance functions which optimize performance of MDs. The TOC Write function allows you to write the result of editing to the TOC without having to eject the disc. The FRA Check function recovers recordable space on a disc that may have been lost because of repeated editing operations.
TOC Write
When making a recording, the TOC (Table Of Contents) of the MD is written as soon as recording is finished. When making an editing or titling operation, however, the TOC isn’t automatically written unless the disc is ejected. If the MD recorder is accidentally turned off before writing the result of editing to the TOC, it is possible that these changes will not be saved. By using this function, you can ensure that the result of your edition is saved on the disc.
1 Press to stop the MD recorder. 2 Press MD EDIT repeatedly to display “TOC Write ?”, then
press ENTER. * “TOC WriteOK?” appears on the display.
3 Press ENTER.
* “TOC Writing” flashes on the display momentarily.
Notes
• You cannot undo the result of editing once it has been written to the TOC.
• The TOC Write function can only be selected when the TOC indicator is lit on the display.
FRA Check
When editing operations such as “Move” and “Divide” are performed, recordable space may be lost and “TOC Full” may appear on the display to indicate that no more recording can be performed. When this occurs, it may be possible to recover the FRA (Freely Recordable Area) on the disc that was lost by repeated editing operations so that more recording is possible.

MD system limitations

The recording system in your MD recorder is radically different from those used in tape and DAT decks and is characterized by the limitations described below. Note, however, that these limitations are inherent to the MD recording system and are not a result of mechanical trouble.
“Can’t REC” is displayed before the maximum recording time (60 or 74 minutes) has been reached
Once 255 tracks have been recorded on one MD, “Can’t REC” is displayed regardless of the total recorded time.
“Disc Full” is displayed before the maximum number of tracks (255) have been recorded
During Automatic track-marking, fluctuations in emphasis within songs may be interpreted as song intervals, increasing the total number of tracks and causing “Disc Full” to be displayed.
The remaining recording time does not increase even after erasing numerous short tracks
Tracks under 12 seconds in length are not counted and so erasing them may not lead to an increase in the recording time.
“TOC Reading” is displayed continuously
The “TOC Reading” display lasts longer than normal when a brand new (blank) disc is inserted.
The total recorded time and the remaining time on the MD do not total to the maximum recording time
• Recording is done in minimum units of 2 seconds each, no matter how short the material.
• The MD recorder displays the length of the largest continuous blank area as the remaining time. Therefore, if there are several separate blank spaces, the remaining time will only display a time equivalent to the largest continuous blank space.
Tracks created through editing may exhibit sound dropout during search operations.
Track numbers are not recorded correctly
Incorrect assignment or recording of track numbers may result when CD tracks are divided into several smaller tracks during digital recording.
It is not possible to erase part of a track using the A-B Erase function
The MD recorder organizes the audio data in sound groups and clusters. The minimum size of these units may not consist of less than 10 seconds of stereo sound.
The correct recorded/playing time may not be displayed during playback of MDs recorded in monaural.

Copy protection (SCMS)

As a digital audio component, this MD recorder conforms with the Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) standards. The Serial Copy Management System restricts copies made by recording digital signals to the first­generation copies only. Therefore, an MD recorded from a digital input source cannot be used as a source for making another digital recording.
