tapes or from dust accumulation over time. This can have a  
serious effect on reproduction quality. Clean the heads regularly  
with one of the commonly available head cleaners or with  
cleaning solutions.  
Note: The plug severed from the mains lead must be  
destroyed, as a plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if  
engaged in a live socket outlet.  
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR U.K. MODEL

is specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of  
accident causing damage. YAMAHA will not be held responsible  
for any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other  
than that which is specified.  
The wire in the mains lead are coloured in accordance  
with the following code:  
Blue: NEUTRAL  
Brown: LIVE  
■ The sound level at a given volume setting depends on a  
combination of speaker efficiency, location and many other  
factors. Care should be taken to avoid exposure to sudden high  
levels of sound, which may occur when turning on the unit with  
the volume control setting at high, and to continuous high levels  
of sound.  
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: 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 terminal which is  
marked with the letter L or coloured RED. Making sure  
that neither core is connected to the earth terminal of the  
three pin plug.  
■ Sudden temperature changes and storage or operation in an  
extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside the

(Helmholtz resonator)

Active Servo  
Processing  
Amplifier  
Signals  
Negative-impedance  
Signals of low amplitude output drive  
The theory of the Active Servo Technology is based upon two  
major factors, the Helmholtz resonator and negative-  
impedance drive. Active Servo Processing speakers  
reproduce the bass frequencies through an “air woofer”,  
which is a small port or opening in the speaker’s cabinet.  
This opening is used instead of, and performs the functions  
of, a woofer in a conventionally designed speaker system.  
Thus, signals of low amplitude within the cabinet can,  
according to the Helmholtz resonance theory, be output from  
this opening as waves of great amplitude if the design is such  
that the size of the opening and the volume of the cabinet are  
in the correct proportion to satisfy a certain ratio.  
Thus it is this problem that is resolved through the  
employment of a design in which the amplifier functions to  
supply the signals. If the electrical resistance of the voice coil  
is reduced to zero, the movement of the speaker unit would  
become linear with respect to signal voltage, and, to  
accomplish this, a special negative-impedance output-drive  
amplifier for subtracting output impedance of the amplifier is  
used.  
By employing negative-impedance drive circuits, the amplifier  
is able to generate precise, low-amplitude low-frequency  
waves with superior damping characteristics, and these  
waves are then radiated from the cabinet opening as high-  
amplitude signals. The system can, therefore, by employing  
the negative-impedance output drive amplifier and a speaker  
cabinet with the Helmholtz resonator, reproduce an extremely  
wide range of frequencies with amazing sound quality and  
less distortion.  
In order to accomplish this, moreover, the amplitudes within  
the cabinet must be both precise and of sufficient power  
because these amplitudes must overcome the “load”  
presented by the air that exists within the cabinet.  
The features described above are combined to be the  
fundamental structure of the Active Servo Technology.

within about 30 minutes.  
When the AC power supply is resumed after more than 30  
minutes pass without power supply, the time display will flash  
on and off to indicate that the time must be reset.  
Note  
If this system is left for several minutes without setting the  
time after the AC power lead of this system is connected to  
the AC outlet, there may be a case that the display is turned  
into a demonstration mode. (This mode is virtually  
unnecessary for using this system.)  
In this case, first turn the power on by pressing the POWER  
switch to cancel the mode, and then set the time.

COMPACT DISC PLAYER OPERATION  
Care of compact discs  
Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however  
mistracking can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the  
disc surface.  
Follow the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from  
your CD collection and player.  
Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-  
label side. Signals are read from the non-label side. Do  
not mark this surface.  
•
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat and  
excessive moisture.  
•
Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt or  
•
water on the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD  
is dirty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry  
cloth, wiping straight out from the center, along the radius.

TUNING OPERATION  
Automatic preset tuning  
You can also make use of an automatic preset tuning  
function. By this function, this unit performs automatic tuning  
and stores stations with strong signals sequentially. Up to 40  
stations are stored automatically in the same way as in the  
manual preset tuning method on the previous page.

* The MEMORY and AUTO TUNING indicators will flash.  
This unit performs automatic tuning and received stations are  
programmed to A1, A2 ... A8 sequentially.  
After the automatic preset tuning is completed  
The display shows the frequencies of the first preset station  
(stored to A1).  
Check the contents and the number of preset stations by  
following the procedure of the section “To recall a preset  
station” on the previous page.  
2
To recall a preset station  
Simply follow the procedure of the section “To recall a preset  
station” on the previous page.  
Notes  
The automatic preset tuning search will be performed  
•
through all frequencies until 40 stations are stored. If the  
number of received stations is less than 40, the search will  
stop after searching through all frequencies.  
With this function, only stations with sufficient signal  
•
strength are stored automatically. If the station you want  
to program is weak in signal strength, tune to it in  
monaural manually and program it by following the  
procedure of the section “To store stations” on the  
previous page.  
You can replace a preset station by another FM or AM  
•
(MW or LW) station manually by simply following the  
procedure of the section “To store stations” on the  
previous page.  
Fundamental rules of internal automatic preset tuning  
operation  
Basically, FM stations are programmed onto area A, B and C,  
and AM stations are programmed onto area D and E (MW  
stations are onto D and LW stations are onto E) in that order  
automatically.  
* If, for example, the number of received FM stations is not  
enough to fill up three areas (A, B and C), AM (MW or LW)  
stations are programmed closely from the preceeding  
empty areas. In such a case, AM (MW) stations are  
programmed from area B or C (and LW stations are from  
area C or D.)  
Memory back-up  
The memory back-up circuit prevents the programmed data  
from being lost even if the AC supply lead is disconnected  
from the AC outlet or the power is cut due to temporary  
power failure. If, however, the power is cut for more than one  
week, the memory may be erased. If so, it can be re-  
programmed by simply following the Preset tuning steps.  
* Moreover, one area is programmed with stations of the  
same band only. If, for example, the last FM station is  
programmed to B4, B5–B8 will be programmed with no  
station, and AM (MW) stations are programmed from area  
C.

Dolby B and C Type Noise Reduction  
•
DOLBY B.C NR  
With cassette tapes, the most noticeable form of noise is high  
frequency hiss. To reduce this hiss noise, this unit has been  
equipped with a newly developed Dolby C noise reduction  
system in addition to its conventional Dolby B NR. Either type  
of noise reduction may be selected with the switch provided.  
Dolby B NR has a noise reduction effect of about 10 dB in  
the high frequency range. The corresponding figure with  
Dolby C NR is about 20 dB, but this is over the entire range  
where the human ear is most sensitive to noise (2 kHz to 8  
kHz). Also, Dolby C NR has the same noise reduction effect  
at both high and low signal levels. In addition, Dolby C NR  
improves the tape’s MOL (Maximum Output Level).  
Dolby noise reduction is a 2 part process that acts both on  
recording and playback; be sure that the noise reduction  
button is set to the same position on record and play.  
* Noise in the source material cannot be reduced with the  
Dolby NR system.
