The provided batteries are intended for use in operation checking, and their service life may be
short.
When the remote-controllable distance becomes short, replace both of the batteries with new
ones.
If direct sunlight or the light of a high-frequency fluorescent lamp (inverter type, etc.) is incident to
the remote sensor on the main unit front panel, malfunction may occur. In such a case, change the
installation position to avoid malfunction.

Stamping (STAMP)
Stereo LP modes
This system has the stamping function,
which attaches stamp "LP:" at the beginning
of each track title to facilitate identification
of tracks recorded in the LP2 or LP4 mode.
"LP:" is displayed as a part of title only when
a track recorded in stereo LP mode is played
on a MDLP-incompatible MD recorder/
player.
The MD recorder of the system is compat-
ible with stereo long play of MD (MDLP
compatible equipment).
The available recording modes include the
stereo, monaural LP, stereo LP2 and stereo
LP4 modes, and they can be used with any
of the music sources which can be recorded
with the MD recorder of the system. It is
also possible to accommodate tracks re-
corded in different recording modes in a sin-
gle MD.
Be sure to select the recording mode be-
fore starting MD recording.
÷
A track recorded in the LP2 or LP4 mode
using the MD recorder of this system can
be played back on any MDLP-compatible MD
recorder/player. However, if such a track is
played on an MDLP-incompatible MD re-
corder/player, the track is played back with-
out audio. If it is recorded using the stamp-
ing function, "LP:" is displayed at the begin-
ning of the displayed track title.
Types of recording modes
Stereo (STEREO) :
The available recording time is equal to the
figure indicated on each MD cartridge.
÷
In stereo recording of MD, the recorded au-
dio quality is degraded as the recording time
per disc is increased. If you want to record
audio by putting priority on the quality, it is
recommended to use the STEREO mode.
Stereo LP2 (LP2) :
The recording time, available in stereo, be-
comes twice the figure indicated on each
MD cartridge.
Stereo LP4 (LP4) :
The recording time, available in stereo, be-
comes four times the figure indicated on
each MD cartridge.
Monaural LP (MONO) :
The recording time, available only in mon-
aural, becomes about twice the figure indi-
cated on each MD cartridge.

Sleep timer (SLEEP)
Auto power save (A.P.S.)
When the time set for the SLEEP time has
elapsed, the system is turned off automati-
cally. The time until the system is turned off
can be selected in 10-minute steps up to 90
minutes.
The system can be set up so that it turns off
automatically when it has been left for more
than 30 minutes with all of its CD player, MD
recorder and tape deck in stop mode or with
its volume set to "0" while the selected in-
put is "TUNER" or "AUX". This facility is con-
venient for preventing accidentally leaving
the system power ON.

Caution on condensation
Handling
Condensation (of dew) may occur inside the
unit when there is a great difference in tem-
perature between this unit and the outside.
This unit may not function properly if con-
densation occurs. In this case, leave the unit
for a few hours and restart the operation
after the condensation has dried up.
Hold the discs so that you do not touch the
playing surface.
Label side
Be specially cautious against condensation
in a following circumstance:
When this unit is carried from a place to
another across a large difference in tem-
perature, when the humidity in the room
where this unit is installed increases, etc.
Playing side
Do not attach paper or tape to either the
playing side or the label side of the discs.

Important items (continued)
Dust countermeasure
The shutter of the disc cartridge is perma-
nently open while the disc is loaded in the
set. Therefore, to prevent dust from pen-
etrating inside the disc, take the disc out of
the unit immediately after completion of
recording or playback.
Never play a cracked or warped disc
During playback, the disc rotates at high
speed in the player. Therefore, to avoid dan-
ger, never use a cracked or deformed disc
or a disc repaired with tape or adhesive
agent. Please do not use discs which are
not round because they may cause a mal-
function.
Care
Wipe periodically dust and dirt attached on
the cartridge with a dry cloth.
Disc accessories
Note on disc accessories
Do not use the lens cleaner for this may
lead to malfunction of the unit.
The disc accessories (stabilizer, protection
sheet, protection ring, etc.) which are mar-
keted for improving the sound quality or pro-
tecting discs as well as the disc cleaner
should not be used with this system be-
cause they may cause malfunction.
Write protect tab
To protect recorded contents against acci-
dental erasure, set the write protect tab of
the disc open. Return the tab to the original
position when you want to record signals
on the disc.
Handling of MD
As the MD is accommodated inside a car-
tridge, it can be handled without caring
about dust or fingerprint. However, stained
or soiled cartridge may cause malfunction.
To enjoy beautiful sound for extended pe-
riod of time, take care on the following
points.
Disc back side
Write protect tab
Slide open.
(Recording disabled)
Slide close.
(Recording enabled)
Do not touch the disc directly.
Do not touch the disc by
opening the shutter with
your hand. The cartridge will
be damaged if it is forced
open.
Note on the cartridge labels
Apply each label firmly to every corner so
that it will not be peeled off.
Caution on MD-Clip data
Do not attempt to record or edit a disc in
which MD-Clip data (still images, etc.) have
been recorded. Otherwise, the Clip data
may be lost.
Storage position
Do not leave MDs in place where the tem-
perature and/or humidity are extremely high
(for example, in a place subject to direct
sunlight).

Maintenance
Cleaning the heads and peripheral compo-
nents
Knowledge
section
After an important recording has been fin-
ished, break the safety tab, to prevent the
recorded contents from being erased or re-
corded on accidentally.
For maintaining the best condition of the
deck and for longer service life, always keep
the heads, capstan and pinch roller clean.
To clean them, perform the following:
(1) Open the cassette holder.
(2) Using a cotton swab dipped in alco-
hol, clean the head, capstan and pinch
roller carefully.

For B side

Head
Pinch roller
Tape guides
Apply tape only to the position where
the tab has been removed.
Demagnetizing the head
To store cassette tapes
When the recording / playback head is mag-
netized, the sound quality will deteriorate.
In such a case, demagnetize the head us-
ing a commercially available demagnetizer
(head eraser).
Do not store the tapes in a place which is
subject to direct sunlight, or near equipment
that generates heat. Keep the cassette
tapes away from any magnetic field.
When there is slack in the tape
In such a case, insert a pencil into the reel
hole and wind the reel hub to remove the
slack.
÷
There are precisely aligned parts around the
heads, including the tape guides. When
cleaning, pay special attention so as not to
apply shock to them.
÷
Do not use an endless tape, as this could
damage the mechanism of the unit.
Do not use a cassette with more than 90-
minute recording time, for the tape used
with such a cassette is very thin and tends
to cause troubles such as entanglement
around the pinch roller or cutting of tape.
