If trouble occurs

When this product is subjected to strong external interference
(mechanical shock, excessive static electricity, abnormal supply
voltage due to lightning, etc.) or if it is operated incorrectly, it may
malfunction.

If such a problem occurs, do the following:

"

Clearing all the memory (reset)

Caution:
This operation will erase all data stored in memory including clock,
timer settings, tuner preset, and CD programme.

Condensation

Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an extremely
humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet (CD
pickup, tape heads, etc.) or on the transmitter on the remote control.
Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction. If this happens,
leave the power on with no disc (or cassette) in the unit until normal
playback is possible (about 1 hour). Wipe off any condensation on
the transmitter with a soft cloth before operating the unit.

Cleaning the cabinet

Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted soap
solution, then with a dry cloth.

Caution:

!

may damage the cabinet finish.

!

Do not apply oil to the inside of the unit. It may cause malfunc-
tions.

Cleaning the tape-handling parts

!

Dirty heads, capstan or pinch roller can cause poor sound and
tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with
commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.

When cleaning the heads, pinch roller, etc., unplug the unit which
contains high voltages.

!

After long use, the deck's heads and capstan may become mag-
netised, causing poor sound. Demagnetise these parts once
every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial
tape head demagnetiser. Read the demagnetiser's instructions
carefully before use.
