stored in memory.
Or, press
PRESET
SCAN
to scan through the stations in
memory. The receiver tunes to each station for about 5 seconds.
When you hear the station you want to listen to, press
PRESET
SCAN
again.
You can also tune to a station in memory by using the remote
control’s number buttons to enter the channel number. For
single-digit channels, enter
0
first (for example, enter
06
for
Channel 6).
Notes:
• To improve the reception of weak FM stations, press
FM
MODE
.
This reduces signal noise, but you hear monaural instead of
stereo sound.
• For stations with a weak signal, we recommend manual tuning.
ADJUSTING BALANCE
The
BALANCE
control lets you adjust the sound balance between
the left and right speakers. If you properly position the speakers and
your listening area is centered between them, the center control
setting is usually best (see “Positioning Speakers” on Page 5).
For an unusual speaker placement, press
AM
to select the AM band
or select any source and play a monaural audio source. Turn
BALANCE
until you hear the sound coming equally from each
speaker when you are in the listening area.
MUTING THE RECEIVER
To temporarily mute the sound, press
MUTING
on the remote
control. The MUTE indicator on the receiver flashes. Press
MUTING
again to restore the audio level. The MUTE indicator turns off.
USING HEADPHONES
To listen with headphones (not supplied), insert the headphones’

/

-
inch plug into the receiver’s front panel
PHONES
jack. To silence the
speakers and listen with headphones without disturbing others,
press
SPEAKERS
A
and/or
B
so both indicators are off.
Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, note the following when using headphones.
• Set the volume to its lowest setting before you begin listening.
After you begin listening, adjust the volume to a comfortable
level.
• Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended high-
volume listening can lead to permanent hearing loss.
• Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over time, your
ears adapt to the volume level, so a volume level that does not
cause discomfort might still damage your hearing.
CASSETTE DECK FEATURES
You can connect a cassette deck to the receiver. Selecting
TAPE
MONITOR
lets you hear the playback from the cassette deck you
connected to the receiver’s
TAPE MONITOR
jacks.
Using the Tape Monitor Button
Press
TAPE MONITOR
.
TAPE
MON
appears, along with the last
program source you selected. You can hear the playback or monitor
a recording from the cassette deck you connected to the receiver’s
TAPE MONITOR
jacks.
The
TAPE MONITOR REC
jacks continue to output the previously
selected sound source after you press
TAPE MONITOR
.
To return to the previous source, press
TAPE MONITOR
again so
TAPE
MON
disappears.
Note:
If you press
TAPE MONITOR
when that cassette deck is
neither playing nor recording, the receiver mutes the current audio
source. To hear the audio source, press
TAPE MONITOR
so
TAPE
MON
disappears.
Recording a Program Source
The receiver sends the audio of the program source you select—
TAPE MONITOR
,
AUX
,
CD
,
FM/AM
(tuner), or
PHONO
—to the
TAPE MONITOR REC
jacks. The
VOLUME
control does not affect
the level of the signal going to the tape decks.
When you record a program source using the cassette deck, you hear
the program source’s signal immediately after you record it onto the
tape, if the cassette deck you connected has a three-head monitor
function. (Be sure to read the owner’s manual for your cassette deck.)
USING THE RESET BUTTON
If the receiver is subjected to a strong magnetic field or an electric
shock, it might operate erratically. If this happens, turn off the
receiver and press the rear panel
RESET
button with a straightened
paperclip or other pointed object.
Caution:
Pressing
RESET
clears everything stored in the receiver’s
memory.
