How This Manual Is Organized
Basic information that is the same for many different functions - e.g. setting the volume - is given in the section Common Operations, and not repeated under each function. The names of buttons/controls and display messages are written in all capital letters: e.g. TUNER BAND, NO DISC. System functions are written with an initial capital letter only: e.g. Normal Play. Use the table of contents to look up specific information you require. Weve enjoyed making this manual for you, and hope it serves you in enjoying the many features built into your System.

When the System is in use, the display shows other items as well. For simplicity, we show here only the items described in this section. CAUTION: If a recording you make has excessive noise or static, the Unit may have been too close to a TV which was on during the recording. Either turn off the TV or increase the distance between the TV and the System.
Recording onto a tape from any of the sound sources is simple. Just place a tape in the Cassette Deck, have the source ready, make one or two settings, and you're ready to record. For each source the procedure is a little bit different so we explain each separately. But first, here are a few things to make your recordings better.
Things To Know Before You Start Recording s It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted s
material without the consent of the copyright owner. When you want to record onto both sides of a tape, you can set Reverse mode to do so. Recording automatically stops after recording in the 2 direction. Therefore, make sure that the tape direction is 3 when recording with Reverse mode on. The recording level, which is the volume at which the new tape is being made, is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the VOLUME control on the System. Nor is it affected by adjusting the sound effects. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level. Two small tabs on the back of the cassette tape, one for side A and one for side B, can be removed to prevent accidental erasure or recording.

Type II detection slot

Standard Recording
You can record any sound source to tape as follows:
1. s Insert a blank or erasable tape into the Cassette Deck and wind past the tape leader. 2. s Press the REV. MODE button on the Unit if you want to record on both sides of the tape.
Press the button until the indicator is lit. When using Reverse mode, insert the tape so that it will be recorded in the forwards 3 direction.
3. s Check the recording direction for the tape.
Make sure that the Tape Direction indicator is the same as that for the tape in the Cassette Deck. If the directions are different, press the TAPE @ # button to correct the tape direction and then press the e button to stop the tape.

Adhesive tape

4. s Prepare the source, by, for example, tuning

To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must cover the holes with adhesive tape first. However, when a type II tape is used, only cover part of the hole as shown, since the other part of the hole (Type II detection slot) is used to detect the tape type. Type I and Type II tapes can be used for recording.
in a radio station or turning on connected auxiliary equipment.
Note: For CD recording, refer to CD Direct Recording mentioned below.
5. s Press the REC button on the Unit.
The TAPE REC indicator lights up and the System begins recording. If the tab of the cassette tape is removed to prevent erasure or recording, NO REC will appear on the display.
Note: At the start and end of cassette tapes, there is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto. Thus, when recording CDs or radio broadcasts, wind on the leader tape first to ensure getting the beginning of the recording.
Notes for using Reverse mode for recording
When recording in Reverse mode, the System automatically stops when it reaches the end of the reverse 2 direction. To record on both sides of a tape, make sure that the recording direction for the tape inserted is forwards 3, and that the Tape Direction indicator is also forwards 3, before you start recording.

tape, press the REV. MODE button on the Unit until the indicator is lit. Make sure that the recording direction for the tape and the Tape Direction indicator is correct. (See Notes for using Reverse mode for recording.) recorded selections.
6. s Choose whether to have pauses between
If nothing is done, a non-recorded pause of about four seconds will be automatically left between selections. If you do not want pauses between selections, do the following before proceeding to the next step. Press the CD #8 button on the Unit or the Remote Control twice. The CD player enters Pause mode.

7. s Press the REC button on the Unit.
The TAPE REC indicator lights up and the System begins recording. If you make a recording with Reverse mode on, the Unit will record the last song at the end of the first side onto the next side from its beginning when the song has been recorded more than 12 seconds on the first side. If the last song has been recorded less than 12 seconds, then the previous song will again be recorded on the next side as it will not be completely recorded on the first side because of leader tape. After the CD player has played the entire CD, or all the programmed tracks, the tape automatically stops.
To stop at any time during the recording process, press the e button. The tape stops after four seconds. Note: When making SLEEP timer settings while doing CD Direct recording, set enough time to allow for the CD to finish playing, otherwise the power will go off before recording is completed.
Listening to External Equipment
You can listen to external equipment such as MD recorder, turntable or other auxiliary. s First make sure that the external equipment is properly connected to the System. (See page 4).
Recording the Systems source to External Equipment
You can record the Systems source to external equipment which is connected to the LINE OUT or OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT terminals of the System, such as cassette deck or MD recorder, etc. s First make sure that the external equipment is properly connected to the System. (See page 4).

s Care And Maintenance s
Handle your CDs carefully, and they will last a long time.

Compact Discs

Only CDs bearing this mark can be used with this System. However, continued use of irregular shape CDs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the System.
If there are fingerprints, etc. on the lens, gently wipe clean with a cotton swab.

Moisture Condensation

Remove the CD from its case by holding it at the edges while pressing the cases center hole lightly. Do not touch the shiny surface of the CD, or bend the CD. Put the CD back in its case after use to prevent warping. Be careful not to scratch the surface of the CD when placing it back in the case. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture. A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a CD does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge. Moisture may condense on the lens inside the System in the following cases: After turning on heating in the room. In a damp room. If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm place. Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case, leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in again.

Cassette Tapes

If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught in the cassette. Take up the slack by inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotating. Do not touch the tape surface.
CAUTION: Do not use any solvent (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean a CD.

General Notes

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 systems CD cover closed when not in use.
Do not store the tape: - In dusty places - In direct sunlight or heat - In moist areas - On a TV or speaker - Near a magnet

Cleaning the lens

If the lens in the CD pickup is dirty, dropout, etc., could degrade sound. Open the CD cover and clean the lens as shown. Use a blower (available from a camera store) to blow dust off the lens.

Cassette Deck

If the heads, capstans, or pinch-rollers of the Cassette Deck become dirty, the following may occur: - Loss of sound quality - Discontinuous sound - Fading - Incomplete erasure - Difficulty recording Clean the heads, capstans, and pinch-rollers using a cotton swab moistened with alcohol.
Capstans Pinch-rollers Erase head Record/play head

Blower

If the heads become magnetized, the Unit will produce noise or lose high frequency notes. To demagnetize the heads, turn off the Unit, and use a head demagnetizer (available at electronics and record shops).
