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 each side.
- Do not place the unit on a bed, rug, or similar
surface that may block the ventilation openings.

- Take care that objects or
liquids do not get inside the unit through the
ventilation openings.
6 Carts and stands

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.
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

mounted on a wall or ceiling, unless specified in the
Operating Instructions.
Electric Power
1 Power sources
- Use on batteries or AC house
current, as specified in the Operating Instructions
and 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

Power supply
The OPE/BATT indicator lights up while the power is
on.
Using on AC house current
Connect the AC cord as illustrated below.
CAUTION
Use only the supplied AC cord. Use with other cords
may result in the risk of fire.
Using on batteries
Open the lid of the battery compartment on the rear and
insert eight R14 (size C) batteries, not supplied, with
the
0 and 9 marks correctly aligned. Then close the
lid.
To switch from AC power supply to battery power
supply,
disconnect the AC cord from the AC inlet.
When to replace the batteries
The OPE/BATT indicator becomes dim, the tape speed
slows down, volume decreases, or sound is distorted
during operation.
Notes on batteries
· Do not mix different types of batteries or old batteries
with new ones.
· When the unit is not to be used for a long period,
remove the batteries to prevent needless battery
wear.
· Never recharge the batteries, apply heat to them or
take them apart.

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 it 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 cords should be firmly secured to avoid
being bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay
particular attention to the cord from the unit to the
power socket.
- Avoid overloading AC outlets 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 cord from
the AC outlet or remove all the batteries 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.
Maintenance
Clean the unit only as recommended in the Operating
Instructions.
