FM antenna (1)
Remote control (1)
Batteries (2)
If any items are missing, consult your dealer
immediately.
NOTES:
Store the battery in a place where children cannot reach. If a child accidentally
swallows the battery, consult a doctor immediately.
To prevent the battery from overheating, cracking, or starting a fire:
Do not recharge, short, disassemble or heat the battery or dispose of it in a
fire.
Do not leave the battery with other metallic materials.
Wrap the battery with tape and insulate when throwing away or saving it.
Do not poke the battery with tweezers or similar tools.
Dispose of battery in the proper manner, according to federal, state, and local
regulations.
The battery (battery pack or battery installed) shall not be exposed to
excessive heat source such as sunshine, fire or the like.
CAUTION:
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the
same or equivalent type.
For better FM reception
Disconnect the supplied FM
antenna, and connect to an
outdoor FM antenna (not supplied)
using a 75 Ω wire with coaxial type
connector (IEC or DIN45325).
To a wall outlet
Extend it so that you can obtain the best reception.
NOTE:
Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals, connecting cords or the power cord. Also, keep
the antennas away from metallic parts of the System, connecting cords, and the AC power cord. Otherwise, it could
cause poor reception.
Use only speakers with the same speaker impedance as indicated by the speaker terminals on the rear of the System.

INSTRUCTIONS
To connect the speaker cords
Make sure both speakers are connected correctly and firmly.
When connecting the speaker cords, match the polarity of the
speaker terminals: The black cord to (–), the red cord to (+).
Maintenance
To get the best performance of the System, keep your
discs, and the mechanism clean.
Handling discs
When removing the disc from its case, hold it at the edge
while pressing the center hole lightly.
Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the
disc.
Put the disc back in its case after use to prevent warping.
Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc.
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature
extremes, and moisture.
To clean the disc:
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from
center to edge.
Handling cassette tapes
If the tape is loose in its cassette, take up the slack by
inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotate it.
If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught
in the cassette.
Be careful not to touch the tape surface.
Avoid the following places to store the tape—in dusty
places, in direct sunlight or heat, in moist areas, on a TV
or speaker, or near a magnet.
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality
Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol to clean the
heads, capstans, and pinch rollers.
Use a head demagnetizer (available at electronics and
audio shops) to demagnetize the heads (when the
System turned off).
To protect your recording
Cassettes have two small tabs to
protect from unexpected erasure or
re-recording.
To protect your recording, remove
these tabs.
To re-record on a protected tape,
cover the holes with adhesive tape.
Cleaning the System
Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the
System is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in
water-diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then
wipe clean with a dry cloth.
Since the System may deteriorate in quality, it becomes
damaged or gets its paint peeled off, be careful about
the following:
DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.
DO NOT wipe it strongly.
DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as
insecticides to it.
DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in
contact for a long time.
Cleaning the CD pickup lens
Keep the CD pickup lens clean, or the sound may be
degraded. Use a blower (available at a camera store, etc.)
to blow dust off the lens.
