CONNECTIONS

Antennas FM antenna The FM indoor antenna lead wire is sufficient to receive most local FM broadcasts. Extend the antenna lead wire as straight as possible and, while listening to the sound from the system, secure it in a position where the best FM reception is found. Unwind the antenna wires, then connect them to the AM LOOP terminals. Place the loop antenna in a position which yields the best AM reception, or attach it to a wall or other surface as shown.
If you have difficulty inserting the AM loop antenna cable connector, turn it over and reinsert it.
AM antenna The AM loop antenna is sufficient to receive most local AM broadcasts. Assemble the loop antenna.
Screws (not supplied) NOTE: To minimize noise. Keep the speaker wires, power cord and all other system connection cables away from the loop antenna. Do not place the antenna close to a TV or speaker.

Main speaker terminals (MAIN SPEAKERS) To achieve proper stereo reproduction, identical connections must be made at the speakers and this unit. Connect the red main speaker wire to the red MAIN SPEAKER terminal (+) and the black wire to the black terminal (-). Surround speaker terminals (SURROUND SPEAKERS) To achieve proper stereo reproduction, identical connections must be made at the speakers and this unit. Connect the connector of the left speaker cable to the SURROUND SPEAKERS L jack. Connect the connector of the right speaker cable to the SURROUND SPEAKERS R jack. If you have difficulty inserting the speaker cable connector, turn it over and reinsert it. Video equipment input jacks (VIDEO IN) Connect an audio cable (not supplied) from the audio output jacks of the video equipment to the VIDEO IN jacks. Headphones jack (PHONES) Connect a pair of stereo headphones (8 ohms - 32 ohms, not available from SANYO) to the PHONES jack for monitoring or for private listening. The speakers are automatically disconnected when headphones are connected.
Power supply Connect the power cord to a 120V AC 60Hz outlet. This unit is equipped with a polarized plug. If you have difficulty inserting the plug, turn it over and reinsert it. If the unit will not be used for a long time, disconnect the AC plug from the AC outlet. NOTES: Before plugging the power cord into an AC outlet, make sure that all the connections have been made. The system is not disconnected from the AC power unless the power cord is unplugged from the AC outlet. When the unit is first connected to the AC power line, it enters the demonstration mode. To cancel this mode, turn the power on.

CAUTION:

TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.

FOR SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION
Do not damage the power cord. When not in use, disconnect the power cord from the outlet. Grasp the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the unit. If water should enter the unit, electrical shock or a malfunction may result. Use in an area where there is low humidity and little dust. Do not disassemble or alter the unit in any way. Do not use the unit in areas where extremes in temperature occur (below 40F or exceeding 95F), or where it may be exposed to direct sunlight. Because of the CD changers extremely low noise and wide dynamic range, there is a tendency to set the volume on the amplifier higher than necessary. Doing so may produce an excessively high output from the amplifier which can cause damage to your speakers. Please be careful in this regard. Sudden changes in the surrounding temperature can cause dew to form on the optical pickup lens inside the unit. Under this condition the unit may be unable to operate properly. If this should occur, remove the disc and allow the changer to adjust to the surrounding temperature. When carrying the unit, be sure to remove any discs which may be inside and turn the power off. Then unplug the power cord from the AC outlet after 10 seconds. Carrying the unit with any discs inside may damage the discs and/or the unit. WHAT TO DO IF. If the operation of the unit or display is not normal, disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet, then press [RESET] (rear of the unit) for at least 20 seconds.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION Sanyo CD changers have built-in error compensation circuits to correct for minor manufacturing defects in a disc, There are limits, however, to the amount of correction possible. In some cases, the CD changer may skip some tracks on a disc during play. This problem may be caused by defects (such as scratches) in the disc being played, which are too large for the error compensation circuits to handle. If you encounter this problem, check the operation of the CD changer as follows, before having the unit serviced. Play a new disc. If the CD changer operates normally, the skipping problem is most likely due to a defective disc.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: FOR YOUR PERSONAL SAFETY, BE SURE TO DISCONNECT THE AC POWER CORD BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH ANY MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING. Cleaning the cabinet Use a clean soft cloth moistened with plain lukewarm water and wrung dry. Never use benzol, benzene or other strong chemical cleaners since these could damage the finish of your unit. It is important that no liquid reaches the inside of the unit. Cleaning the cassette section For continued high performance from the cassette section, periodically clean the heads, pinch rollers and capstans whenever an accumulation of dust and red-brown oxide particles is noticed. To do this, open the cassette holder. Remove any cassettes still in the cassette compartments. Carefully rub each head (4, 5, 8), pinch roller (3, 7) and capstan (2, 6) with a cotton swab (1) moistened with isopropyl alcohol or special head-cleaning fluid.
