LINE-OUT CONNECTION
You can connect this unit to an external Hi-Fi / amplifier system by connecting the line-out RCA jacks to
the auxiliary input jacks on your Hi-Fi / amplifier system with RCA cables (not included).
USING HEADPHONES OR EARBUDS (NOT INCLUDED)
Inserting the plug of your headphones or earbuds into the HEADPHONES JACK will enable you to listen to the CD,
Radio or Cassette music in private. When using headphones, the Built-in Speakers will be disconnected.
CAUTION:
Avoid excessive volume levels for long period of time when using the earphones. Prolonged use
at high levels may impair your hearing.
Keep the volume at a reasonable level even if your headset is an open-air type designed to allow you to
hear outside sounds. Please note that excessively high volume may still block outside sounds.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Do not subject the unit to excessive force, shock, dust or extreme temperature.
2. Do not tamper the internal components of the unit.
3. Clean your unit with a dry cloth. Solvent or detergent should never be
used.
4. Avoid leaving your unit in direct sunlight or in hot, humid or dusty places.
5. Keep your unit away from heating appliances and sources of electrical
noise such as fluorescent lamps or motors.
6. If drop-outs or interruptions occur in the music during CD play, or if the CD
fails to play at all, its bottom surface may require cleaning. Before playing,
wipe the disc from the center outwards with a good soft cleaning cloth.
ABOUT CASSETTE TAPES
Whenever you record on a cassette any previously recorded material is erased as the new material is
recorded. To prevent you from accidentally erasing material which you wish to save, blank cassettes are
equipped with erase prevention tabs for each side of the tape. If the erase prevention tab for side A is
removed, you cannot accidentally record on side A. The Record key cannot be depressed if the erase
prevention tab on the cassette has been removed.
To prevent accidental erasing on side A of a cassette use a small screw driver or similar tool to break off
the erase prevention tab for side A. This prevents the record key form locking.
If later you do wish to record on side A of the cassette, cover the tab opening with a piece of cellophane
tape. This will allow the Record to function again.
CASSETTE CARE
Two common causes of trouble experienced when using cassettes are:
1) Tape Jamming – Leading to uneven speed in playback, and
2) Tape Tangling – Where the tape wraps itself around vital parts of the mechanism.
To reduce the likelihood of these problems occurring, the following precautions should be observed:
Check that there are no loose layers of tape visible through the cassette center window (see Fig. 1).
Take up any loose layers, using a pencil or hexagonal barreled ballpoint pen, before inserting the
cassette into the machine (see Fig.2)
