Precautions
1. Recording Copyright—Unless it’s for personal use
only, recording copyrighted material is illegal with-
out the permission of the copyright holder.
For British models
Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power
supply cord of this unit should be performed only by
qualified service personnel.
2. AC Fuse—The AC fuse inside the unit is not user-
serviceable. If you cannot turn on the unit, contact
your Onkyo dealer.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance
with the following code:
3. Care—Occasionally you should dust the unit all
over with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft
cloth dampened with a weak solution of mild deter-
gent and water. Dry the unit immediately afterwards
with a clean cloth. Don’t use abrasive cloths, thin-
ners, alcohol, or other chemical solvents, because
they may damage the finish or remove the panel let-
tering.
Blue:
Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this
apparatus may not correspond with the coloured mark-
ings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as
follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the letter N or
coloured black.
4. Power
WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE
FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SEC-
TION CAREFULLY.
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country.
Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the
voltage requirements printed on the unit’s rear panel
(e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the letter L or
coloured red.
IMPORTANT
The plug is fitted with an appropriate fuse. If the fuse
needs to be replaced, the replacement fuse must
approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362 and have the same
ampere rating as that indicated on the plug. Check for
the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.
Setting the [STANDBY/ON] switch to STANDBY
does not fully shutdown the unit. If you do not
intend to use the unit for an extended period,
remove the power cord from the AC outlet.
If the power cord’s plug is not suitable for your socket
outlets, cut if off and fit a suitable plug. Fit a suitable
fuse in the plug.
5. Never Touch this Unit with Wet Hands—Never
handle this unit or its power cord while your hands
are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid gets
inside this unit, have it checked by your Onkyo
dealer.
For European Models
6. Handling Notes
• If you need to transport this unit, use the original
packaging to pack it how it was when you origi-
nally bought it.
• Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit
for a long time, because they may leave marks on
the case.
• This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm
after prolonged use. This is normal.
• If you do not use this unit for a long time, it may
not work properly the next time you turn it on, so

Memory backup
The T-433 uses a battery-less memory backup system in
order to retain radio presets and other settings when it’s
unplugged or in the case of a power failure. Although no
batteries are required, the T-433 must be plugged into
an AC outlet in order to charge the backup system.
Once it has been charged, the T-433 will retain the set-
tings for several weeks, although this depends on the
environment and will be shorter in humid climates.
The clock setting is not retained by the backup system.

Notes:
• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but accept-
able results can sometimes be obtained when
installed in an attic or loft.
• For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well
away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line
of sight to your local FM transmitter.
• Outdoor antenna should be located away from possi-
ble noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.
• For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situ-
ated well away from power lines and other high volt-
age equipment.
Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed outside
horizontally, but good results can sometimes be
obtained indoors by mounting horizontally above a win-
dow. Note that the AM loop antenna should be left con-
nected.
Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with
local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.
• Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance
with local regulations to prevent electrical shock haz-
ards.
Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter
It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and
TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If
circumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter,
as shown.

Listening to the Radio
You can store up to 30 of your favorite radio stations as
presets for quick selection. Stations can be preset auto-
matically using the Auto Preset function or manually.
Presetting Stations Manually
Here you can tune into stations individually and store
them as presets. This allows you to store stations in any
order you like.
Notes:
• You can preset up to 30 FM/AM stations. If you try to
store more than this, the message “FULL” will appear
on the display.
• Using the remote controller while listening to an AM
radio station may cause interference.
• If the power cord is disconnected, or the power is off
for more than 2 weeks, the preset settings may be
lost, in which case, you’ll need to store them again.
Notes:
• You can store up to 30 stations, and this can be any
combination of FM and AM stations. For example, 17
FM stations and 13 AM stations, or 8 FM stations and
22 AM stations.
• Although the numbering schemes for FM and AM
presets both start at 1, it doesn’t matter because FM
and AM presets are selected independently.
• Stations can be stored to presets in any order. For
example, you could store some AM stations to presets
2, 1, 9, and so on.
Presetting All Stations Automatically

Using the Timers
The T-433 has five timers: four programmable timers
for automated playback or recording, and a sleep timer
for turning the system off after a specified time.
Timer Usage Examples
Here are three typical applications for the timers.
■ TIMER 1: Early morning radio alarm
The timers can be used with other Onkyo Separate Col-
lection components that are connected to the A-933 via
(see page 11 for connection details).
PLAY–FM–1–EVERY–EVERYDAY–7:00–7:30
■ TIMER 2: Record a radio show this Sunday
REC–FM–4–TAPE–ONCE–SUN–10:00–12:00
About the Timers
■ TIMER 3: Record an FM radio show to MDR
The settings for the four programmable timers are
explained here. For details on using the sleep timer, see
page 27.
everyday from Monday through Friday.
REC–FM–1–MD–EVERY–DAYS SET–MON–
FRI–15:00–15:30
Timer Types
Notes:
• Make sure that the T-433, the playback component,
and the recording component are all properly con-
nected to the A-933. Poor connections may cause
timed playback or recording to fail.
• During timed recording, the A-933 is muted. To listen
to the sound during recording, press the remote con-
troller’s [MUTING] button.
• While timed playback or recording is in progress, the
timer’s start and end times cannot be changed.
• The timers cannot be set if the clock has not been set,
so set the clock first (see page 14).
• Pressing the [TIMER] button while timed playback or
recording is in progress will turn off the current timer.
• Even if the T-433’s clock is set correctly, recording
may not start exactly at the specified time if the
recording component requires a few moments to read
CD or MD (TOC) information before it begins
recording. For this reason, it’s recommended that you
set the recording start time about 1 minute early.
Each timer can be programmed to PLAY or REC.
■ PLAY
PLAY mode can be used to start playback on a compo-
nent at a specified time. The component must be con-
nected to the A-933 with an
cable. You could use a
PLAY timer to turn on the T-433 every morning, just
like a radio alarm.
■ REC
REC mode can be used to start playback on one compo-
nent and start recording on another component both at a
specified time. The recording component (e.g., Onkyo
MD recorder or cassette deck) and playback component
must both be connected to the A-933 with an
cable.
You could use a REC timer to record your favorite radio
show everyday.
Playback & Recording Components
The playback component can be the T-433 (FM or AM),
another Onkyo component (CD player, MD recorder,
cassette deck, etc) that’s connected to the A-933 with an
cable, or a component with its own built-in timer
that’s connected to an audio input on the A-933.
About the Timer Display
TIMER indicator
The recording component can be an Onkyo MD
recorder or cassette deck that’s connect to the A-933
with an
cable.
When one of the timers has been set, the TIMER indica-
tor is shown on the display. While a timer that has been
set is on, its number is displayed. A square ( ) around a
number indicates that it’s a REC timer.
Repeat Timers
Each timer can be programmed to work just once
(ONCE), every week (EVERY), every day (EVERY
DAY), or on a range of days (DAYS SET).
Timer Priority
If two or more timers are set to start at the same time on
the same day, the lower numbered timer has priority and
the other timer is ignored.
■ ONCE
The timer will work just once.
■ EVERY
Timer 1: 12:00–13:00 (This timer has priority.)
Timer 2: 12:00–12:30
The timer will work every week on the specified day
and time.
•
EVERYDAY
If the times of two or more timers overlap on the same
day, the timer with the earliest start time has priority and
the other timer is ignored.
The timer will work every day.
•
DAYS SET
The timer will work on the specified range of days. With
this setting, you could set up a morning alarm for Mon-
day through Friday.
Timer 1: 9:00–10:00
Timer 2: 8:00–10:00 (This timer has priority.)

Troubleshooting
If you have any trouble using the T-433, look for a solution here. If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, contact your
Onkyo dealer.
Power
■ Can’t turn on the T-433.
• Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into the wall outlet (page 11, 14).
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait five seconds or more, then plug it in again.
■ The T-433 turns off unexpectedly.
• If the sleep timer has been set, and the TIMER indicator is shown on the display, the T-433 will turn off automatically
after a specified period.
• When timed playback or recording finishes, the T-433 automatically switches to Standby mode.
Audio
■ There’s no sound.
• The T-433 is not connected properly. Check all connections and correct as necessary.
• The wrong input source is selected on your amplifier. Check your amplifier’s input source setting. Refer to your
amplifier’s manual.
• Check if the A-933’s MAIN IN function is on. Refer to the A-933’s instruction manual.
• Make sure the amplifier’s volume control is not set to minimum.
Radio
■ Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, the Auto Preset function doesn’t preset all stations,
or the ST indicator doesn’t light up when tuned to a stereo FM station.
• Check the antenna connections.
• Change the position of the antenna.
• Move the T-433 away from a nearby TV or computer.
• Move power cords and speaker cables as far away as possible from the tuner’s antenna.
• Cars or airplanes can cause noisy interference.
• The radio signal will be weakened if it has to pass through a concrete wall before reaching the antenna.
• Try setting FM mode to mono.
• When listening to an AM station, noise may be heard when you operate the remote controller.
• If none of the above improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna.
■ Timed playback or recording doesn’t work.
• Make sure the clock has been set correctly. If the clock has not been set, timed playback or recording is not possible.
• If a component is On at the specified start time, the timer will have no effect, so be sure to set the component to
Standby beforehand.
• If the settings of two or more timers overlap, some of the timers will not work, so make sure they do not overlap.
• Make sure that the
and audio cables are connected properly.
• Check the settings on the playback and recording components. (Timer recording is not possible with a CDR.)
• For timed recording with an MD recorder, use its analog audio input.
Remote Controller
■ The A-933’s remote controller doesn’t work.
• Point the remote controller at the A-933’s remote sensor (page 9).
• To use , you must make an
connection and an audio connection between the A-933 and T-433 (page 11).
• Check if the A-933’s MAIN IN function is on. Refer to the A-933’s instruction manual.
The T-433 contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare
situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to
lockup. In the unlikely event that this should happen, unplug the power cord, wait at least five
seconds, and then plug it again.
To reset the T-433 to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the [MEMORY] button,
press the [STANDBY/ON] button. “CLEAR” will appear on the display and the T-433 will enter
Standby mode.
