Introduction  
Precautions  
How to Read This Manual  
To make this manual as simple and easy-to-understand as  
possible, we have adapted the following methods:  
• Button and control operations are explained as listed in the  
table below. In this manual, the operations using the  
remote control is mainly explained; however, you can use  
the buttons and controls on the main unit if they have the  
same (or similar) name and marks.  
Installation  
• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor  
too cold—between 5°C and 35°C.  
• Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to  
prevent internal heat buildup inside the System.  
DO NOT install the System in a location near  
heat sources, or in a place subject to direct  
sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.  
Some related tips and notes are explained later in the  
sections “Learning More about This System” and  
“Troubleshooting,” but not in the same section  
explaining the operations. If you want to know more  
about the functions, or if you have a doubt about the  
functions, go to these sections and you will find the  
answers.  
• Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.  
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference  
with TV.  
Power sources  
• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always  
pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.  
Indicates that you press the button  
briefly  
.
Indicates that you press the button  
briefly and repeatedly until an  
option you want is selected.  
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet  
hands.  
Moisture condensation  
Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the System in  
the following cases:  
Indicates that you press one of the  
buttons.  
• After starting to heat 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, then plug it in again.  
Indicate that you press and hold the  
button for specified seconds.  
• The number inside the arrow  
indicates the period of press (in this  
example, 2 seconds).  
2 sec.  
• If no number is inside the arrow,  
press and hold until the entire  
procedure is complete or until you  
get a result you want.  
Others  
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System,  
unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before  
operating any further.  
Indicate that you turn the control  
toward the specified direction(s).  
DO NOT disassemble the System since there  
are no user serviceable parts inside.  
• If you are not going to operate the System for an extended  
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall  
outlet.  
Indicates that this operation is only  
possible using the remote control.

• If the System takes time to show the RDS information—PS,  
PTY, RT signals, “PS,” “PTY” or “RT” will appear while  
searching.  
Learning More about This System  
Daily Operations—Playback (see pages 8 to 10)  
Listening to the Radio:  
• If you store a new station into an occupied preset number, the  
previously stored station in that number will be erased.  
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure  
occurs, the preset stations will be erased in a few days. If this  
happens, preset the stations again.  
Advanced Disc Operations (see pages 16 to 18)  
Programming the Playing Order—Program Play:  
• You cannot specify a group number of an MP3 disc for  
Program Play.  
• If you try to program a 51st track, “FULL” appears on the  
display.  
• While programming steps...  
Playing Back a Disc:  
• When using an 8 cm disc, place it on the inner circle of the disc  
tray.  
• This System cannot play “packet write” discs.  
• For MP3 playback...  
Your entry will be ignored if you have tried to program an item  
number that does not exist on the disc (for example, selecting  
track 14 on a disc that only has 12 tracks).  
– MP3 discs are required a longer readout time than regular  
CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/file  
configuration.)  
– Some MP3 files cannot be played back and will be skipped.  
This result from their recording processes and conditions.  
– When making MP3 discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2  
for the disc format.  
– This system can play back MP3 files with the extension code  
<.mp3> (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower).  
– It is recommended that you make each MP3 file at a  
sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This  
System cannot play back files made at bit rate of less than 64  
kbps.  
– This System can recognize the total of 255 tracks and of 64  
groups. Those exceeding the maximum number cannot be  
recognized.  
Advanced Tape Operations (see pages 19 to 20)  
Recording on a Tape:  
• The recording level is automatically set correctly. Thus, you  
can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without  
affecting the recording level.  
• There is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto at the start  
and end of cassette tapes. Thus, when recording CDs or radio  
broadcasts, wind the leader tape first to ensure that the  
recording will be made without any music part lost.  
• If you start recording with no cassette inserted, “NO TAPE”  
appears on the display. If a protected tape has been inserted,  
“NO REC” appears.  
• When using Reverse Mode for recording, start recording in the  
forward (3) direction first; otherwise, recording will stop  
when only one side (reverse) of the tape is recorded.  
– Playback order of MP3 tracks may be different from the one  
you have intended while recording (see page 26). If a folder  
does not include MP3 tracks, they are ignored.  
• You can also change Reverse Mode setting (  
after starting recording.  
and  
)
• You cannot open or close the disc tray while recording.  
Playing Back a Tape:  
Synchronized Disc Recording:  
• When the tape reaches its end in the forward direction (3)  
• It is not recommended to use the C-120 or longer tapes. These  
tapes easily jams in the pinch rollers and the capstans, and may  
cause characteristic deterioration.  
during recording with Reverse Mode set to  
, the last tune  
will be re-recorded at the beginning of the reverse side.  
• You cannot open the cassette holder during Synchronized  
Disc Recording.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
“SOME DOS AND DON’TS ON THE SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT”  
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any  
electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.  
✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮  
Do read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.  
Do ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections between  
pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and  
withdraw the mains plug when making or changing connections.  
Do consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.  
Do be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.  
✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮✮  
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in  
any way—switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.  
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.  
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for  
unattended operation or has a standby mode.  
Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family know how to do this.  
Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people.  
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of  
traffic safety. It is illegal to watch television whilst driving.  
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume as such use can permanently damage your hearing.  
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings.  
Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment.  
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws—to ensure complete safety always fit the  
manufacturer’s approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.  
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.  
ABOVE ALL  
NEVER let anyone, especially children, push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the case  
—this could result in a fatal electrical shock.;  
NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind—it is better to be safe than sorry!
