WARNING
•
Do not use this unit when there’s the possibility of moisture
condensation occurring. Doing so may damage your discs
and certain parts inside this unit.
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME,
READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make sure that
the voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on
the unit's rear panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).
If condensation does occur, remove all discs and leave this unit
turned on for two to three hours. By this time, the unit will have
warmed up and any condensation will have evaporated.
Setting the STANDBY/ON switch to STANDBY does not fully
shutdown the unit. If you do not intend to use the unit for an
extended period, remove the power cord from the AC outlet.
For British models
Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power supply cord
of this unit should be performed only by qualified service personnel.
5. Never Touch this Unit with Wet Hands—Never handle this unit
or its power cord while your hands are wet or damp. If water or
any other liquid gets inside this unit, have it checked by your
Onkyo dealer.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
6. Handling Notes
•
•
•
•
If you need to transport this unit, use the original packaging
to pack it how it was when you originally bought it.
Blue:
Neutral
Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit for a long
time, because they may leave marks on the case.
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may
not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals
in your plug, proceed as follows:
This unit's top and rear panels may get warm after prolonged
use. This is normal.
If you do not use this unit for a long time, it may not work
properly the next time you turn it on, so be sure to use it
occasionally.
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal
which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the termi-
nal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.
•
When you’ve finished using this unit, remove all discs and
turn off the power.
IMPORTANT
7. Installing this Unit
•
•
Install this unit in a well-ventilated location.
The plug is fitted with an appropriate fuse. If the fuse needs to be
replaced, the replacement fuse must approved by ASTA or BSI to
BS1362 and have the same ampere rating as that indicated on the
plug. Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the
fuse.
Ensure that there’s adequate ventilation all around this unit,
especially if it’s installed in an audio rack. If the ventilation
is inadequate, the unit may overheat, leading to malfunc-
tion.
•
•
Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heat sources,
because its internal temperature may rise, shortening the life
of the optical pickup.
If the power cord's plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, cut if
off and fit a suitable plug. Fit a suitable fuse in the plug.
Avoid damp and dusty places, and places subject to vibra-
tions from loudspeakers. Never put the unit on top of, or
directly above a loudspeaker.
For European Models
•
•
Install this unit horizontally. Never use it on its side or on a
sloping surface, because it may cause a malfunction.

Memory Preservation
This unit does not require memory preservation batteries.A built-
in memory power back-up system preserves the contents of the
memory during power failures and even when the unit is un-
plugged. The unit must be plugged in order to charge the back-up
system.
The memory preservation period after the unit has been unplugged
varies depending on climate and placement of the unit. On the
average, memory contents are protected over a period of a few
weeks after the last time the unit has been unplugged. This pe-
riod is shorter when the unit is exposed to a highly humid cli-
mate.

Make sure that the clock has been set correctly before setting the
timer.
After setting the timer, be sure to set this unit in Standby mode. If
this unit is not in Standby mode, the timer will not work.
When the power is turned on by one of the timer mode settings,
the other timer modes may not be activated at their ON time. The
power will be switched off by the first timer mode at its OFF
time. Set a gap of one minute or more between the OFF time and
ON time for each timer setting. (See the figure on the left.)
If you press the SLEEP button during timer play or timer record-
ing, the power will be switched off at the SLEEP timer's OFF
time.
If more than two timer mode settings are made at the same time,
the “WEEKDAY” setting has the priority over the “WEEKEND”
setting. The “REC” mode setting has no priority.
The timer recording setting will be cancelled if the recording does
not start at the ON time (for example, if the power is already on).
