This unit should not be connected to
speakers with an impedance of less than
4 ohms, otherwise damage may result to
the unit.
HEADPHONE JACK (PHONES)

HINTS FOR BEST RECEPTION :
AM/FM : The receiver has a built-in AM/FM
bar antenna. If AM/FM reception is weak, slight
rotation or repositioning of the unit will usually
improve AM/FM reception.
During recording, beating whistle at some
stations may occur, so sliding "FM MODE"
switch may help.
FM : The receiver has a built-in FM wire antenna
hanging from the rear cabinet. This wire
should be totally unravelled and extended
for best reception.

Inserting and Removing the Cassette
Tape
Open the cassette compartment lid by
pressing the STOP/EJECT button. Insert
the cassette placing the full reel on the left
(visible through the window) and the
exposed section of the tape at the bottom.
Close the compartment lid. Now the unit is
ready for operation. To use the second
track, press the STOP/EJECT button and
remove the cassette. Turn the cassette
around and reinsert it as previously
described.
Recommended Cassette Tapes
In order to obtain optimum performance with
the built-in cassette tape deck, it is essential
to use only high quality cassette tapes. The
bias and equalization of your tape deck is
adjusted to yield excellent results if used
with brand name tapes. Use C-30, C-60
and C-90 cassettes only. We do not
recommend C-120 cassettes because
they can be subject to mechanical instability
and proper constant tape tension cannot be
controlled.
Checking the Cassette
Make sure that the cassette tape has no
slack prior to inserting it into the recorder.
Safeguard Against Accidental
Erasure
To protect valuable recordings from accidental
erasing, the tape deck and the cassette are
equipped with standard safety features. To
keep the recorded material carefully, break out
the tabs on the back of the cassette with a knife
or
screwdriver. To protect the side A (1) from
accidental erasure, break out the right side
tab (2). To record on a cassette whose tabs
have been broken, simply attach adhesive
tape (3) over the tab opening. The REC button
will not lock in position when a cassette tab
has been removed.
CASSETTE TAPES
(1) SIDE A
(3) ADHESIVE TAPE
(2) TAB
Unless the tape is taut, it may wind around
the head mechanism and trouble may result.
Use a pencil as shown in the Figure to take
up slack on one of the reels.

recorded tape to another tape by using the
unit-in double deck mechanisms. It is

a pre-recorded tape at approximately two-
thirds the time of the duration at normal
speed.
Slide the HIGH SPEED DUBBING switch,
and follow the same procedure as instructed
in "DUBBING AT NORMAL SPEED".
When dubbing a pre-recorded cassette tape
at HIGH SPEED in TAPE function, a
chattering sound is heard. To avoid this, set
the VOLUME control to a minimum or set
the desired FUNCTION button according to
the source to be heard.
Note:
When the dubbing at HIGH SPEED is in progress,
do not release the HIGH SPEED SWITCH, since
this will vary the speed of the program and ruin the
recording.
Power Switch
After using the unit, turn off the power by
releasing the POWER switch.
Cleaning the unit
To keep the unit clean, simply wipe with a soft
clean cloth moistened with plain lukewarm
water.
Cleaning the Heads
To ensure the continued high performance
of your unit, periodically clean the heads and
pinch rollers to prevent accumulation of dust
or tape oxide deposits. Failure to clean these
parts may result in inferior sound quality,
distortion of recorded sound, deterioration
of reproduction of high frequencies, and
inconsistent tape speed.
1. Open both cassette compartment lids.
2. Moisten a cotton bud with head cleaner
or methylated spirit and apply to the
faces of heads, rubbing gently until all
traces of dirt or oxide are removed.
Also clean the surfaces of the pinch
rollers and the capstans.
3. Dry, clean and polish the faces of the
heads with a piece of cloth.
Stylus (needle) Replacement
Replacement of a worn stylus can be easily
accomplished as follows.
1. Raise the "Tone Arm."
2. To remove the old stylus, pull out the
stylus assembly in the direction shown,
holding the head shell with other hand.
3. Then install the new stylus by pushing it
gently into the cartridge (hold by the
edge to prevent damage to stylus) until it
clicks into place.

Safety Instruction :
Do not connect the power cord to the mains supply until all other connections have been
made.
Do not expose this apparatus to dripping or splashing
HANDLING COMPACT DISCS
To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the centre of the case and lift the disc
out, holding it carefully by the edges.
Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc's recorded surface with a soft cloth.
Unlike conventional records, compact discs have no grooves to collect dust and microscopic
debris so gently wiping with a soft cloth should remove most particles. Wipe in a straight line
from the inside to outside of the disc. Small dust particies and light stains will have absolutely
no effect on reproduction quality.
Never use chemicals such as record sprays, antislatic sprays, benzine, or thinners to clean
compact discs. These chemicals can irreparably damage the disc's surface.
Discs should be returned to their cases after use. This avoids serious scratches that could
cause the Laser pickup to skip. Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high
temperatures for extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures can warp the disc.
Important
Since movement of the CD mechanism and the sensitive circuitry may cause interterence to a
radio tuner nearby, switch this unit off white operating other radio devices.
This product utilises a laser
Danger - invisible laser radiation when opened and interlock failed or defeated.
Avoid direct exposure to the beam.
Caution - Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures not listed in this
manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Concerning Compact Discs
Only compact discs identified with this mark can be used with in this player.
