Dear Customer:  
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical  
enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers.  
This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get  
the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and  
clear without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.  
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what  
sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your  
equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.  
To establish a safe level:  
• Start your volume control at a low setting.  
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.  
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:  
• Set the dial and leave it there.  
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want  
you listening for a lifetime.  
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime  
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage  
from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries  
Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.  
This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

and to protect it from overheating. These openings must not be blocked  
or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the  
product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product  
should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat source. This  
product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a  
bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the  
manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to.

supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power  
company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or  
other sources, refer to the operating instructions.  
21. WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING  
The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as  
recommended by the manufacturer.

11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION  
service personnel under the following conditions:  
This product is equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug  
(a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the  
power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to  
insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug  
should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete  
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.  
12. POWER-CORD PROTECTION  
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.  
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the product.  
c. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.  
d. If the product does not operate normally by following the operating  
instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the

indicates a need for service.  
13. LIGHTNING  
23. HEAT  
The product should be situated away from heat sources such as  
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including amplifiers)  
that produce heat.  
24. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER  
To protect your product from a lightning storm, or when it is left  
unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall  
outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent  
damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.  
14. POWER LINES  
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention  
to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper  
grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be  
connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point  
of cable entry as practical.  
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of  
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it  
can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside  
antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching  
such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

POWER SOURCES  
This unit is designed to operate on AC household current or DC (batteries).  
AC:  
Use the AC polarized line cord included with the unit for operation on AC power. Insert one end of the AC  
line cord into the AC power jack on the rear of the unit and the other end (with the 2 blades) into a  
conveniently located AC outlet having 120V, 60Hz. When the  
AC cord is plugged in, the batteries will be disconnected.  
NOTE: The AC plug supplied with the unit is polarized to help  
minimize the possibility of electric shock. If the AC plug does  
not fit into a nonpolarized AC outlet, do not file or cut the wide  
blade. It is the user’s responsibility to have an electrician  
replace the obsolete outlet.

MAKING A TAPE RECORDING  
The tape recorder in this system allows you to make direct recordings from the radio or CD player to a blank  
cassette in the tape compartment. An automatic recording volume level control (ALC) circuit will automatically  
control the volume level of your recordings to prevent distortion. You may change the settings of the volume  
or the Bass Boost during a tape recording, as these controls have no effect on the material being recorded

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
SAFEGUARD AGAINST ACCIDENTAL ERASURE  
When a new recording is made, any program  
material previously recorded is automatically  
erased and only the new recording remains. To  
safeguard valuable recordings from being erased  
accidentally, the cassette and the deck are  
equipped with a special device.  
On the back of the cassette there is an erase  
prevention tab on each side. To prevent  
accidental erasing, break out these tabs with a  
screwdriver. If only one side of the tape is to be  
protected, break out the tab on the left side with  
the side desired facing you.  
E 1  
Tab for side 2

To record on a tape in which the tab has been

area.  
Break out the tab  
to prevent recording  
NOTE: When a tab is broken out, the record  
button cannot be depressed.  
Cover with tape to record again  
CASSETTE TAPE RECOMMENDATIONS  
Standard tape lengths have 15 (C-30), 30 (C-60) and 45 (C-90) minutes of recording time on each side.  
Longer length tapes of 60 (C-120) minutes of recording time on each side are not recommended. Use only  
high quality tapes. If a problem develops, check the unit first with another cassette to determine if the  
problem is with the cassette, and not with the unit.  
If there is any slack in the tape in the cassette, it should be removed before inserting the cassette. Place a  
pencil in one of the hubs and rotate clockwise until all slack is taken up.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE (CONTINUED)  
Caring for Compact Discs  
• Treat the compact disc carefully. Handle the compact disc  
only by its edges. Never allow your fingers to come in contact  
with the shiny, unprinted side of the compact disc.  
• Do not attach adhesive tape, stickers, etc. to the disc label.  
• Clean the compact disc periodically with a soft, lint-free,  
dry cloth. Never use detergents or abrasive cleaners to  
clean the compact disc. If necessary, use a CD cleaning  
kit.  
• If a disc skips or gets stuck on a section of the compact disc, it is probably dirty or damaged (scratched).  
• When cleaning the compact disc, wipe in straight lines from the center of the compact disc to the outer  
edge of the compact disc. Never wipe in circular motions.  
Z
• This unit is designed to play only compact discs bearing the identification logo as shown here.  
Other discs may not conform to the CD standard and may not play properly.  
• Compact Discs should be stored in their cases after each use to avoid damage.  
• Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, high temperatures or dust, etc. Prolonged  
exposure or extreme temperatures can warp the compact disc.  
• Do not stick or write anything on either side of the compact disc. Sharp writing instruments, or the ink may  
damage the surface.
