Before Use  
Read This Before Operating  
Handling the Discs  
Remote Control Unit  
O Choose the installation location of your  
unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct  
sunlight or close to a source of heat.  
Also avoid locations subject to vibra-  
tions and excessive dust, heat, cold or  
moisture. Keep away from such sources  
that hum, such as transformers or  
motors.  
O Do not open the cabinet as this might  
result in damage to the circuitry or elec-  
trical shock. If a foreign object should  
get into the set, contact your dealer.  
O When removing the power plug from the  
wall outlet, always pull directly on the  
plug, never yank the cord.  
This unit has been designed specifically for  
reproduction of compact discs bearing the  
"˛" mark. No other discs can be repro-  
duced.  
When operating the remote control unit,  
point it towards the remote sensor on the  
front panel of the unit.  
ªBattery installation  
O Always place the compact disc in the  
disc tray with the label facing upward.  
(Compact discs can be played only on  
one side.)  
O To remove a disc from its storage case,  
press down on the center of the case  
and lift the disc out, holding it carefully  
by the edges.  
How to remove the disc  
O Be sure not to handle discs with dirty  
fingers. Never insert a disc which has a  
crack on the surface.  
O Do not attempt to clean the unit with  
chemical solvents as this might damage  
the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.  
O Keep this manual in a safe place for  
future reference.  
1. Remove the battery compartment  
cover.  
2. Insert two “AA” (R6, SUM-3) dry  
batteries.  
Make sure that the batteries are inserted  
with their positive and  
ative poles positioned correctly.  
3. Close the cover until it clicks.  
neg-  
How to hold the disc  
Handling the Tapes  
Battery replacement  
If you notice that the distance between the  
remote control unit and the unit for correct  
operation becomes shorter, it indicates  
that the batteries are exhaust- ed. In this  
case replace the batteries with new ones.  
Do not store tapes in the following places:  
On top of heaters, exposed to direct sun-  
light or in any other places with high  
temperatures.  
O Near speakers, on TV sets or amplifiers  
or where they would be exposed to  
strong magnetic fields.  
O Where humidity is high and in dirty,  
dusty places.  
O Avoid dropping or subjecting cassettes  
to excessive shocks.  
O As C-120 tapes are physically weak and  
could become entangled in the transport  
mechanism, do not use them.  
O Fingerprints and dust should be careful-  
ly wiped off the disc's recorded surface  
with a soft cloth.  
Wipe radially  
Precautions concerning batteries  
O Be sure to insert the batteries with  
correct positive and negative –  
polarities.  
O Use batteries of the same type. Never  
use different types of batteries  
together.  
O Rechargeable and non-rechargeable  
batteries can be used. Refer to the pre-  
cautions on their labels.  
O When the remote control unit is not to  
be used for a long time (more than a  
month), remove the batteries from the  
remote control unit to prevent them  
from leaking. If they leak, wipe away  
the liquid inside the battery compart-  
ment and replace the batteries with new  
ones.  
O Do not use thinner, benzine or alcohol as  
they damage the surface of the disc's  
plastic surface.  
O Discs should be returned to their cases  
after use to avoid serious scratches that  
could cause the laser pickup to "skip."  
O Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or  
high humidity and temperature for  
extended periods.  
Long exposure to high temperatures can  
warp the disc.  
O Do not stick paper or write anything with  
a ballpoint pen on the surface of the  
label side.  
Cassette Tape  
Tape selection:  
For the automatic tape select function to  
work properly, metal and chrome (cobalt)  
tapes must have identification holes.  
*Dolby noise reduction manufactered under  
license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing  
Corporation.

O Do not heat or disassemble batteries  
and never dispose of old batteries by  
throwing them in fire.

meters briefly reach around the "0 dB"  
point (for Normal or Chrome tapes) or  
the "+3 dB" point (for Metal tapes).  
Tape Counter  
*Notes:  
OThe cassette holder cannot be  
opened during recording or playback.  
OIf the power has been switched off  
during play or recording, ejecting the  
cassette may be impossible. In such a  
case, switch the power on and press  
the eject button again.  
The tape counter counts up when the tape  
is moving forward and down when the tape  
is being rewound. The display can be  
cleared by pressing the COUNTER RESET  
button, which resets the counter index to  
"0000".  
_
_
11  
 
O If, by using the Ò , the required CPS  
number setting is exceeded, use the  
button to count down the CPS num-  
ber until the required CPS number is dis-  
played.  
O When the Ò button is pressed, the  
next tune is counted as "1" and when the  
button is pressed, the current tune  
is counted as "1".  
RTZ (Return To Zero) Function  
CPS (Computomatic Program Search)  
By pressing the RTZ (Return To Zero) but-  
ton, the tape will locate the "0000" point and  
stop.  
CPS allows the selection and playback of  
any tune up to 15 tunes ahead or before the  
one being played. This function operates  
by detecting blank spaces of at least 4 sec-  
onds between tunes. These blanks can be  
created using the REC MUTE function.  
2. The tape is fast-wound to detect blanks  
between tunes until the required tune is  
reached. Then playback starts from the  
beginning of the designated tune.  
O The RTZ function does not work when  
the tape counter indicates a number  
between "9996" and "0004".  
Notes:  
O In the following steps 1 and 2, to simpli-  
fy the description, the explanation is  
given for "forward playback" (direc-  
tion). A similar procedure should be  
used for "reverse playback".  
Notes on CPS  
CPS operates by detecting and counting  
blanks of about 4 seconds, the standard  
interval between tunes. Therefore, with the  
following types of tapes, search functions  
may not work correctly.  
O The Ò (Fast Forward) and   
(Rewind) buttons act as CPS buttons  
during playback. This is why the main  
unit indicates "/Ú Æ/Ò" for  
these buttons, while the remote control  
unit shows just "Ò". In the fol-  
lowing explanation, these buttons are  
described as just "" and "Ò".  
Pitch Control  
You can change the tape speed during  
playback, allowing to change the pitch of  
the reproduced sound.  
O When the intervals between tunes can-  
not be detected.  
Intervals of less than 4 seconds.  
High levels of noise in intervals.  
Long low level sections (in classical  
music, etc.)  
1. During forward playback, press the   
or Òbutton repeatedly until the num-  
ber of tunes to be skipped appears in the  
counter display. Use the Òbutton for  
searching a tune following the current  
tune and button for a tune before  
the current tune. Refer to the chart  
"How to Select Any Required Tune Using  
CPS".  
By turning the PITCH CONTROL to the right,  
the tape speed becomes faster, resulting in  
a higher pitch. By turning it to the left, the  
tape speed becomes slower, resulting in a  
lower pitch.  
O At the fully clockwise position, the tape  
speed is approx. 12% faster .  
O At the fully counterclockwise position,  
the tape speed is approx. 12% slower.  
Fast Wind  
In the Stop mode, the Òbuttons act  
as fast forward and rewind buttons.  
O In the Playback mode, these buttons act  
as CPS buttons.
