WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO
RAIN OR MOISTURE.
"CAUTION:TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK).
NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL."
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
Explanation of Graphical Symbols:
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within
an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the
user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous
voltage" within the product's enclosure that may
be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of
electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence
of
important
operating
and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.
ENGLISH
7 Condensation -- Moisture may form on the CD pickup lens
when:
- The unit is moved from a cold spot to a warm spot
- The heating system has just been turned on
- The unit is used in a very humid room
- The unit is cooled by an air conditioner
When this unit has condensation inside, it may not function
normally. Should this occur, leave the unit for a few hours, then
try to operate again.
8 Wall or ceiling mounting -- The unit should not be mounted
on a wall or ceiling, unless specified in the Operating Instruc-
tions.
Electric Power
1 Power sources -- Connect this unit only to power sources
specified in the Operating Instructions, and as marked on the
unit.
2 Polarization -- As a safety feature, some units are equipped
with polarized AC power plugs which can only be inserted
one way into a power outlet. If it is difficult or impossible to
insert the AC power plug into an outlet, turn the plug over and
try again. If it still does not easily insert into the outlet, please
call a qualified service technician to service or replace the
outlet. To avoid defeating the safety feature of the polarized
plug, do not force it into a power outlet.
3 AC power cord
- When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull out by the AC
power plug. Do not pull the cord itself.
- Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this
could result in fire or shock.
- Power cord should be routed to avoid being severely bent,
pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to the cord
from the unit to the power socket.
- Avoid overloading AC power plugs and extension cords
beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire or shock.
4 Extension cord -- To help prevent electric shock, do not use a
polarized AC power plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or
other outlet unless the polarized plug can be completely inserted
to prevent exposure of the blades of the plug.
5 When not in use -- Unplug the AC power plug from the power
socket if the unit will not be used for several months or more.
When the cord is plugged in, a small amount of current continues
to flow to the unit, even when the power is turned off.
Outdoor Antenna
1 Power lines -- When connecting an outdoor antenna, make
sure it is located away from power lines.
2 Outdoor antenna grounding -- Be sure the antenna system
is properly grounded to provide protection against unexpected
voltage surges or static electricity build-up. Article 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information
on proper grounding of the mast, supporting structure, and
the lead-in wire to the antenna discharge unit, as well as the
size of the grounding unit, connection to grounding terminals,
and requirements for grounding terminals.
PRECAUTIONS
Read the Operating Instructions carefully and completely before
operating the unit. Be sure to keep the Operating Instructions for
future reference. All warnings and cautions in the Operating In-
structions and on the unit should be strictly followed, as well as
the safety suggestions below.
Installation
1 Water and moisture -- Do not use this unit near water, such
as near a bathtub, washbowl, swimming pool, or the like.
2 Heat -- Do not use this unit near sources of heat, including
heating vents, stoves, or other appliances that generate heat.
It also should not be placed in temperatures less than 5°C
(41°F) or greater than 35°C (95°F).
3 Mounting surface -- Place the unit on a flat, even surface.
4 Ventilation -- The unit should be situated with adequate
space around it so that proper heat ventilation is assured.
Allow 10 cm (4 in.) clearance from the rear and the top of the
unit, and 5 cm (2 in.) from the each side.
- Do not place the unit on a bed, rug, or similar surface that
may block the ventilation openings.
- Do not install the unit in a bookcase, cabinet, or airtight
rack where ventilation may be impeded.
5 Objects and liquid entry -- Take care that objects or liquids
do not get inside the unit through the ventilation openings.
6 Carts and stands -- When
placed or mounted on a stand or
cart, the unit should be moved
with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and
uneven surfaces may cause the
unit or cart to overturn or fall.

CONNECTIONS
PREPARATIONS
Before connecting the AC cord
The rated voltage of your unit shown on the rear panel is 120 V
AC. Check that the rated voltage matches your local voltage.
IMPORTANT
· Connect the speakers, antennas, and all optional equipment
first. Then connect the AC cord.
· Both speakers can be connected as L (Left) or R (Right).
1 Connect the right speaker to the main unit.
1 Connect the speaker cord with the plug to the SPEAKERS
HIGH FREQ R terminal.

2 Connect the speaker cord with the white stripe to the
SPEAKERS LOW FREQ R 0terminal and the black cord
to the 9 terminal.
2 Connect the left speaker to the main unit.
Connect the speaker cord with plug to the SPEAKERS HIGH
FREQ L terminal, and another speaker cord to the
SPEAKERS LOW FREQ L terminals in the same manner as
step 1.
3 Connect the supplied antennas.
Connect the FM antenna to FM 75

PREPARATIONS
To stand the AM loop antenna on a surface
Fix the claw to the slot.
To position the antennas
FM feeder antenna:
Extend this antenna horizontally in a T-shape and fix its ends to
the wall.
AM loop antenna:
Position for the best reception.
· Be sure to connect the speaker cords correctly. Improper
connections can cause short circuits in SPEAKERS terminals.
· Do not leave objects generating magnetism, such as credit
cards, near the speakers, as these objects may be damaged.
· Do not bring the FM antenna near metal objects or curtain rails.
· Do not bring the AM antenna near other optional equipment,
the stereo system itself, the AC cord or speaker cords, since
noise will be picked up.
· Do not unwind the AM antenna wire.
CONNECTING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA
For better FM reception, use of an outdoor antenna is
recommended.
Connect the outdoor antenna to FM 75
terminals.

REMOTE CONTROL
Inserting batteries
Detach the battery cover on the rear of the remote control and
insert two size AA (R6) batteries.
AA (R6)
When to replace the batteries
The maximum operational distance between the remote control
and the sensor on the main unit should be approximately 5 meters
(16 feet). When this distance decreases, replace the batteries
with new ones.
Using the remote control
The instructions in this manual refer mainly to the buttons on the
main unit. Buttons on the remote control with the same names
as those on the main unit can be used as well.
To use FUNCTION on the remote control
The FUNCTION substitutes for the function buttons (TAPE,
TUNER, VIDEO/AUX, CD, MD) on the main unit.
Each time FUNCTION is pressed while power is on, the next
function is selected cyclically.

FUNCTION
· If the remote control is not going to be used for an extended
period of time, remove the batteries to prevent possible
electrolyte leakage.
· The remote control may not operate correctly when:
- The line of sight between the remote control and the remote
sensor beside the VOLUME control is exposed to intense light,
such as direct sunlight
- Other remote controls are used nearby (those of a television,
etc.)
