WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

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.

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 Instructions 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^ (41^) or greater than 35^ (95^) .
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 10cm (4 in.) clearance from the rear and the top of the unit, and 5cm (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.

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 Instructions.

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 power cord, pull out by the plug. Do not pull the cord itself.
• Never handle the 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—Disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet 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.

Antenna Grounding According to the National Electrical Code
NEC-NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE

Maintenance

Clean the unit only as recommended in the Operating Instructions.

Damage Requiring Service

Have the units serviced by a qualified service technician if:
- The AC power cord or plug has been damaged
- Foreign objects or liquid have gotten inside the unit
- The unit has been exposed to rain or water
- The unit does not seem to operate normally
- The unit exhibits a marked change in performance
- The unit has been dropped, or the cabinet has been damaged
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SERVICE THE UNIT YOURSELF.

SOUND

Before connecting the AC cord

The rated voltage of your system 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 in the end.
• There are no differences between the front speakers. Both speakers can be connected as L (Left) or R (Right).

1 Place the CD player unit on top of the tuner/ amplifier unit and plug in the connector of the flat cable as shown below.

Note that the connector can be plugged in in only one direction with the flat cable facing right.

After plugging in the connector, allow adequate clearance between the flat cable and the ventilation openings.

2 Connect the speaker cords to the tuner/amplifier unit.

The speaker cord from the right speaker should be connected to the "R" jack and the cord from the left speaker to the "L" jack.

3 Connect the supplied antennas.

Connect the FM antenna to the FM 75Ω terminals and the AM antenna to the AM LOOP terminals.

4 Connect the AC cord to an AC outlet.

When the AC cord is connected for the first time, the display window demonstrates the functions of the system. When the power is turned on, the demonstration display is overridden by the operation display. When the power is turned off, the demonstration mode is restored.

To cancel the demonstration

Press the DEMO button.

To activate, press the DEMO button again.

To stand the AM 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 to find the best direction.

NOFE

• Do not connect any speakers to the system other than the supplied ones.
• Do not leave objects generating magnetism near the speakers.
• 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.

PLACING THE TWO UNITS SIDE BY SIDE

You may also place the CD player and the tuner/amplifier units side by side according to your preference. In this case, make sure that the flat cable does not obstruct the ventilation openings, as shown below.

Always leave adequate clearance between the flat cable and the ventilation openings.

Flat cable

CONNECTING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA

For better FM reception, use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

Connect the outdoor antenna to the FM 75 terminals.

To connect other optional equipment page 14.
