energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference  
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular  
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can  
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the  
interference by one or more of the following measures:  
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.  
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

PREPARATION FOR USE  
AC Operation  
Unwind the AC power cord and extend it to its full length. Insert the small end of the AC power cord into the  
AC socket on the back cabinet of the unit. Insert the other end of the AC power cord into any convenient  
120V 60Hz household outlet.  
Please note that this unit is equipped with a polarized AC  
plug which has one blade wider than the other. This is a  
safety feature to reduce the likelihood of electric shock. This  
polarized AC plug will only fit in a polarized AC outlet. If you  
find that you cannot insert this plug into your outlet, you  
may have an obsolete non-polarized outlet. Please do not  
try to defeat this safety feature by using a non-polarized  
adapter or by filing the wider blade to make it fit into your  
outlet. If this plug does not fit into your outlet, you should  
contact a qualified licensed electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.

Hints for Better Reception:  
FM - Make sure that the FM Wire Antenna is extended to its full length. You may have to vary the direction  
of the antenna to find the strongest signal for each FM station.  
AM - The AM ferrite bar antenna is located inside the unit. It may be necessary to turn the unit slightly so  
that the internal antenna is pointing in the direction of the AM transmitter. You may have to experiment to  
find the position that provides the strongest reception for each of your favorite AM stations.

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.  
To record on a tape in which the tab has been broken,  
place a piece of adhesive tape over that area.  
NOTE: When a tab is broken out, the record button  
cannot be depressed.  
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 rst with another cassette to determine if the  
problem is with the cassette, and not with the unit.  
If there is any slack in the cassette, it should be removed before inserting the cassette. Place a pencil in one  
of the hubs and rotate it 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 ngers to come in contact  
with the shiny, unprinted side of the compact disc.  
• Do not attach adhesive tape, stickers, etc. to the compact  
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 compact 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
COMPACT  
• This unit is designed to play only compact discs bearing the identification logo as shown here.  
Other compact 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.  
DIGITAL AUDIO  
• 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.  
Cleaning the unit  
• To prevent re or shock hazard, disconnect your unit from the AC power source when cleaning.  
• The nish on your unit may be cleaned with a dust cloth and cared for as other furniture. Use caution  
when cleaning and wiping the plastic parts.  
• Mild soap and a damp cloth may be used on the front panel.  
• Periodic cleaning of the tape heads, capstan and pinch roller is necessary to maintain good sound  
reproduction. Clean them after every 100 hours of use or less if playback has deteriorated. Use a cotton  
swab moistened with head cleaning solution or isopropyl alcohol, then wipe dry with another swab.  
NOTE: Never use metal objects on or near the tape heads. Do not allow any cleaning material to fall into the  
tape assembly.
