DEARJENSENCUSTOMER

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the

start of your musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the

fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic

Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of

your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through

loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without

affectingyoursensitivehearing.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher

volumes of sound. So what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your

hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your

hearingadapts.

Startyourvolumecontrolatalowsetting.

Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and

withoutdistortion.

Setthedialandleaveitthere.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the

future. Afterall,wewantyoulisteningforalifetime.

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment.

Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this

manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics

Grouprecommendyouavoidprolongedexposuretoexcessivenoise.

The serial number of this product is found on its back cover. You should note the

serial number of this unit in the space provided as a permanent record of your

purchasetoaidinidentificationintheeventoftheftofloss.

NOTE:

This product is designed to operate on normal 120V 60Hz AC only. Connecting

this system to any other power supply could result in damage to the unit which is

not covered by your warranty. You will note that this system is equipped with a

polarized AC power plug having one blade wider than the other. This is a safety

feature.

If this plug does not fit into your existing AC outlet,

do not try to defeat this safety feature by filing the

PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE !!

This model is equipped with non-skid rubber 'feet' to prevent the product

from moving when you operate the controls. These 'feet' are made from

non-migrating rubber material specially formulated to avoid leaving any

marks or stains on your furniture. However certain types of oil based

furniture polishes, wood preservatives, or cleaning sprays may cause the

rubber 'feet' to soften, and leave marks or a rubber residue on the furniture.

To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly recommend that you

purchase small self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware stores and

home improvement centers everywhere, and apply these pads to the bottom

of the rubber 'feet' before you place the product on fine wooden furniture.

MAKING A TAPE RECORDING

This cassette recorder features an Automatic Recording Volume Level Control

System that prevents overloaded or distorted recordings. You can change the

volume level as often as you like during the recording process. It will not have any

effect on the volume level of the recording itself.

1.) Insert a good quality blank tape into DECK A with the exposed tape facing

down and the full reel on the left side. Close DECK A door.

2.) Select the source you wish to record:

PHONO, TUNER, CD or TAPE (Tape Dubbing) and operate that source as you

normally would.

3.) Press the Record key on DECK A to begin recording.

NOTE: When recording from Cassette B to Cassette A you can press the HI-

SPEED DUBBING button to "ON to select high speed dubbing which allows

you to make recordings at approximately twice the normal recording speed.

ABOUT CASSETTE TAPES

Whenever you record on a cassette any previously recorded material is erased as

the new material is recorded. To prevent you from accidentally erasing material

which you wish to save, blank cassettes are equipped with erase prevention tabs

for each side of the tape. If the erase prevention tab for side A is removed, you

cannot accidentally record on side A. The Record key cannot be depressed if

the erase prevention tab on the cassette has been removed.

To prevent accidental erasing on side A of a cassette use a small screw driver or

similar tool to break off the erase prevention tab for side A. This prevents the

record key from locking.

If later you do wish to record on side A of the cassette, cover the tab opening with

a piece of cellophane tape. This will allow the Record key to function again.

CASSETTE CARE

Two common causes of trouble experienced when using cassettes are:

1.) Tape jamming- Leading to uneven speed in playback, and

2.) Tape tangling- Where the tape wraps itself around vital parts of the mechanism.

To reduce the likelihood of these problems occurring, the following precautions

should be observed:

Use only well-known brands of tape. Avoid use of C-120 cassettes.

Furthermore,do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight,dust or oil, and do not touch

the tape surfaces.

HEAD CLEANING

The tape heads, pinch roller and capstan require periodic cleaning. This removes

particles of the metal oxide coating that wear off the tape and accumulate on these

parts and impair performance.Switch off the power, press the Stop/Eject key to

open the cassettedoor, and press the Play key. Clean the tape heads, pinch roller

and capstan with a soft cloth or cotton pad dampened in isopropyl alcohol or special

tape head cleaner.

If the cassette feels tight while performing operation

shown see Fig. 2 , the tape may be jamming due to

ridges formed in the winding of the tape visible

through the center window . These may be removed, in

most cases, by fast winding of the cassette from one

end to the other and back again. Fig. 2

Erase head Head Capstan Pinch Roller Play Head Capstan Pinch Roller

Check that there are no loose layers of tape visible

through the cassette center window (see Fig. 1).

Take up any loose layers, using a pencil or hexagonal

barrelled ballpoint pen, before inserting the cassette

into the machine (see Fig. 2).

COMPACT DISC CARE

To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center 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 the outside of

the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will have absolutely no effect on

reproduction quality.

Clean the disc periodically with a soft, lint-free, dry cloth. Never use detergents

or abrasive cleaners to clean the disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning kit.

Never write on or affix labels to the surface of compact discs.

CARE OF THE CABINETS

If the cabinets become dusty wipe them with a soft dry dust cloth. Do not use

any wax or polish sprays on the cabinets.

If the front panel becomes dirty or smudged with fingerprints it may be cleaned

with a soft cloth slightly dampened with a mild soap and water solution. Never

use abrasive cloths or polishes as these will mar the finish of your unit.

Caution: Never allow any water or other liquids to get inside the unit while

cleaning.
