This manual is organized as follows:
The manual mainly explains operations using the
buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the
buttons on the remote control if they have the same or
similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.
If operation using the remote control is different from
that using the unit, it is then explained.
Basic and common information that is the same for many
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in
each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the
information about turning on/off the unit, setting the
volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are
explained in the section “Common Operations” on pages 9
and 10.
The following marks are used in this manual:

DISC CHANGE
This unit has been designed to playback the following CDs:
Audio CD, CD-R, and CD-RW.
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs
(CD-ReWritable) can be played back when they are already
finalized.
You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs
recorded in music CD format ONLY. (If CD-RWs have
been recorded in different format, erase all the data on CD-
RWs completely before re-recording on the discs.)
DO NOT play back CD-Rs or CD-RWs
recorded the sound files such as MP3.
Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their
instructions or cautions carefully.
Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this
unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain
on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.
Important notices:
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping
your CDs and the mechanism clean.
- Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on
shelves.
- Keep the unit’s carrousel closed when not in use.
Continuous use of irregular shaped discs (heart-shape,

record pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without
the consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or
video recording, broadcast or cable program and in
any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic embodied
therein.

you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to
without affecting the recording level.
While recording, you can hear sound modes through the
speakers or headphones. However, the sound is
recorded without these effects (see page 10).
If recordings you have made have excessive noise or
static, the unit may be too close to a TV. Place the unit
away from the TV.
You can use type I tape for recording.

Cassettes have two small tabs
on the back to protect
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.

Introduction
About This Manual
This manual is organized as follows:
The manual mainly explains operations using the
buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the
buttons on the remote control if they have the same or
similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.
If operation using the remote control is different from
that using the unit, it is then explained.
Basic and common information that is the same for many
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in
each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the
information about turning on/off the unit, setting the
volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are
explained in the section “Common Operations” on pages 9
and 10.
The following marks are used in this manual:
Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent
damage or risk of fire/electric shock.

for obtaining the best possible performance
from the unit.
Gives you information and hints you had better
know.

pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the
consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video
recording, broadcast or cable program and in any
literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic embodied
therein.
The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is
not affected by the VOLUME, the SUBWOOFER LEVEL,
and the SOUND MODE controls. Thus, during recording
you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to
without affecting the recording level.
While recording, you can hear sound modes through the
speakers or headphones. However, the sound is recorded
without these effects (see page 10).
If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static,
the unit may be too close to a TV. Place the unit away from
the TV.
You can use type I tape for recording.
To protect your recording
Cassettes have two small tabs on the back to protect
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.
To keep the best recording and playback sound quality
If the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers of the cassette decks
become dirty, the following will occur:
