Skip play

This function allows you to skip to the beginnings of tracks preceding or following the track in play and begins play immediately. It is a good idea to keep an eye on the track number display when using this function.

- To skip forward, press ▶▶ button momentarily. The unit skips ahead one track each time the button is pressed.

For example, to skip from track 3 to track 5:

(press 2 times) 3 → 5

fo skip backward, press ◀◀ button momentarily.

The first time the button is pressed, the unit skips back to the beginning of the track in play. Then it skips back one track for each additional press.

For example, to skip from track 5 to track 3 during play:

(press 3 times) 3 ← 5

• You can skip tracks when the unit is in the stop mode. Play begins automatically from the selected track.
• You can also skip tracks when the unit is in the pause mode. The unit skips to the track selected and remains in the pause mode.

Search play

This function allows you to search rapidly forward or backward on the disc for specific sections.

- To search forward, keep pressing the ▶▶ button.

The unit begins searching in a forward direction.

•To search backward, keep pressing the ◀◀◀ button.

The unit begins searching in a reverse direction.

• Sound from the disc can be heard as the pickup moves. The output level at this time is decreased by 12 dB (¼) compared with the normal level.
• The search speed is slow when the button is pressed at first and becomes faster if you keep it pressed down. Release the button when you reach the desired point on the disc.
• You can also search when the unit is in the pause mode. When the skip/search button is released, the unit returns to the pause mode.

Recording from Compact Discs

If edit function of this unit is used when recording from compact discs to tape, the tracks can be recorded on the two sides (sides A and B) of the tape, considering the length of the tape used, so that there is no interruption of tracks at the end of one tape side.

stop + play edit tape length 2 play 1 edit tape length

Automatic edit calculation

The unit automatically calculates how many tracks will fit on a given tape side and programs them for you automatically.

1 Press the edit tape length button to select the tape length.

Each time the button is pressed the tape length indicator changes as follows. Choose the length of the tape you will use.

C-90 C-60 C-46 C-0 PROM EDIT 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Number of tracks to be recorded on side A Remaining time on side A Side A PROM EDIT 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Tracks to be recorded on side A (upper bar) Tracks to be recorded on side B (lower bar)

2 Press the play button at the same time you begin recording on the tape deck.

• When the tracks programmed for tape side A have finished playing, the unit searches for the beginning of the first track to be recorded on side B and switches to the pause mode. Turn over the tape and start recording for side B.
• During recording, silent gaps of approximately 3 seconds are inserted between tracks automatically (auto space function).

Note:

According to the discs, the little sound of the beginning of the next track may be recorded onto the end of the track.

- To cancel the edit mode, press the stop button after recording is finished.

■ To select your desired recording time

Press the edit tape length button 4 times to select "C-0". Then keep pressing the skip/search button(s) to specify the tape's total recording time in minutes (1–99).

For example:

When the total recording time of the tape to be used is 52 minutes, keep pressing the skip/search button ▶▶ until the display shows "C - S2".

- If you go past the desired number, return the number using button.

Helpful Hint:

- When you want to record programmed tracks, first program tracks in memory using the program play procedure (see page 8). Then press the edit tape length button.

Notes:

●The maximum allowable playing time for editing is 99 minutes.
●More than 20 programs cannot be edited.

Link function

This function allows you to record tracks from multiple discs, keeping the total playing time for all discs in memory.

For example, to record a disc of 60 minutes in total on 90 minutes tape and to record another disc in the space remaining on the tape.

C-90 Side A (45 minutes) Side B (45 minutes) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

1 Press the edit tape length button once. ("C -90")
2 Press the disc link button.
3 Press the play button at the same time you begin recording on the tape deck.

• After the recording on side A is completed, the unit skips to the beginning of the first track for side B and switches to the pause mode. Turn over the tape and start recording for side B.
  ●After the recording of the first disc is completed, the tape running on the tape deck will continue.

Be sure to stop the tape running.

4 After recording is completed, replace the disc with another.

The disc link function works and the display shows the number of tracks to be recorded on the remaining time (30 minutes).

5 Press the play button at the same time you begin recording on the tape deck.

Note:

- The "0" may appear on the track display when the open/close button is pressed and compact discs are exchanged. This means that continued "linking" is not possible because there is no track (on the compact disc) that will fit into the remaining available time for recording at the end of the tape.

If this happens, press the stop button to end the edit-recording.

For example, to record programmed tracks from 3 discs on 60 minutes tape.

Suggestions for Safety

■ Use a standard AC wall outlet

1. Use from an AC power source of high voltage, such as for an air conditioner, is very dangerous.

There is the possibility that a fire might be caused by making such a connection.

1. A DC power source cannot be used.

Be sure to check the power source carefully, especially on a ship or other place where DC is used.

■ Grasp the plug when disconnecting the power supply cord

1. Wet hands are dangerous.

A dangerous electric shock may result if the plug is touched by wet hands.

1. Never place heavy items on top of the power supply cord, and never force it to bend sharply.

■ Place the unit where it will be well ventilated

Place this unit at least 10 cm (4") away from wall surfaces, etc.

■ Avoid places such as the following:

In direct sunlight or in other places where the temperature is high.

In places where there is excessive vibration or humidity.

Such conditions might damage the cabinet and/or other component parts and thereby shorten the unit's service life.

■ Be sure to place the unit on a flat, level surface

If the surface is inclined, a malfunction may result.

■ Never attempt to repair or reconstruct this unit

A serious electric shock might occur if this unit is repaired, disassembled or reconstructed by unauthorized persons, or if the internal parts are accidentally touched.

■ Take particular care if children are present

Never permit children to put anything, especially metal, inside this unit. A serious electric shock or malfunction could occur if articles such as coins, needles, screwdrivers, etc. are inserted through the ventilation holes, etc. of this unit.

■ If water is spilled on the unit

Be extremely careful if water is spilled on the unit, because a fire or serious electric shock might occur. Immediately disconnect the power cord plug, and consult with your dealer.

■ Avoid spray-type insecticides

Insecticides might cause cracks or "cloudiness" in the cabinet and plastic parts of this unit. The gas used in such sprays might, moreover, be ignited suddenly.

■ Never use alcohol or paint thinner

These and similar chemicals should never be used, because they might cause flaking or cloudiness of the cabinet finish.

■ Disconnect the power supply cord if the unit will not be used for a long time

If the unit is left for a long time with the power ON, this will not only shorten its useful operation life, but may also cause other troubles.

■ If trouble occurs

If, during operation, the sound is interrupted or indicators no longer illuminate, or if abnormal odor or smoke is detected, immediately disconnect the power cord plug, and contact your dealer or an Authorized Service Center.
