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 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. 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

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 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

et sur les deux côtés de l’appareil principal. Si l’on place l’appareil principal dans un meuble, veiller à ce que le côté avant du meuble soit grand ouvert.

Gerätes vorhanden sein. Wenn das Gerät in einem Regal oder Schrank aufgestellt wird, so muß die Vorderseite vollständig geöffnet sein.

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 eller något föremål ovanpå huvudapparaten för att förhindra att ventilationshålen 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

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

•

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 disc (heart etc.)

•

available on the market, because it may damage this system. Do not use a 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, 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.

2 PS (Program Service name) mode

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

3 PTY (Program Type) mode

The type of the program on the station being received is displayed. In this mode, you can make this unit search for a station which is broadcasting a program of your desired program type. For details, refer to the next page. * If the RDS station does not employ the PTY data service, “NO PTY” 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 turns into the PS

mode.

4 RT (Radio Text) mode

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.

By designating a program type, the tuner automatically searches all preset FM stations for an RDS station which broadcasts a program of that program type. * There are 15 program types to classify RDS stations. For

details, refer to page 18.

1 Turn the tuner into the PTY SEEK mode by pressing PTY

SEEK MODE.

* The name of the program type of the station now being

received or “NEWS” flashes on the display.

2 Select the desired program type by using PTY SELECT

or . * If there is no operation for about 20 seconds, this mode

is canceled and turns into the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS mode.

3 Press PTY SEEK ST ART.

The tuner begins searching all preset FM stations. * “PTY HOLD” (7) lights up on the display. * The name of the program type and “AUTO” (4) flash.

The preset station number (1) changes rapidly in sequence.

● If a station which broadcasts a program of the program type is found, the search stops at the station and turns into the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS mode.

● If the called station is not the desired one, press PTY SEEK START once more. The tuner begins searching for another

station which broadcasts a program of the same program type.

● If no station is found, “NO PTY” appears and then returns to the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS mode. * If PTY SEEK START is pressed once more during

searching, this mode is canceled and turns into the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS mode.

To cancel the PTY SEEK mode

If PTY SEEK MODE is pressed twice, the PTY SEEK mode is canceled and turns into the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS mode.

Tuning operation

English

m Other functions which make use of RDS

data service

The tuner has the following functions which make use of RDS data service. These are originally in operation [ON]. However, you can cancel these functions [OFF], if so desired.

1 ON (OFF) CT > CLOCK

The tuner corrects the time of the built-in clock automatically by synchronizing it with the CT data on the RDS station being received. * If you receive an RDS station of some other country, the

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.) If you switch this function OFF, not only RDS stations but also other FM stations are programmed along with AM stations by the automatic preset tuning operation.
