SYNCHRONIZED TAPE-TO-TAPE RECORDING  
NORMAL SPEED TAPE-TO-TAPE RECORDING  
To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the centre of the case and lift the  
disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.  
Insert a fully rewound prerecorded cassette into Tape Deck B.  
Insert a fully rewound blank cassette tape into Tape Deck A.  
Set the Function Selector to the TAPE position and keep the DUBBING Selector in the

Press the Pause Key of Tape Deck “A”, and then press both the Play and Record keys  
ofTape Deck “A”.  
Press the Play Key of Tape Deck “B”. The contents of the tape in Deck “B” will now be  
copied onto the tape in Deck “A”.  
Adjust the Volume Control to the desired levels for monitoring purposes. The recording  
will be unaffected by changes in these control.  
Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc’s recorded surface with a  
soft cloth. Unlike conventional records, compact discs have no grooves to collect dust  
and microscopic debris so gently wiping with a soft cloth should remove most particles.  
Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles and  
light stains will have absolutely no effect on reproduction quality.  
To stop recording, press both of the Stop / Eject Keys. Otherwise the tape will stop  
automatically when the end of the tape is reached.  
HIGH SPEED TAPE-TO-TAPE RECORDING  
Never use chemicals such as record sprays, antistatic sprays, benzine, or thinners to  
clean compact discs. These chemicals can irreparably damage the disc’s surface.  
Discs should be returned to their cases after use. This avoids serious scratches that  
could cause the Laser pickup to skip.  
Press down the DUBBING Button to the “low” position.  
Follow the steps described above for Normal Speed Tape-to Tape Recording. You will  
hear the speeded up tape play through the speakers. Turn down the volume to silence  
the sound.  
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures for extended  
periods. Long exposure to high temperatures can warp the disc.  
NOTES: If the length of the tape in Deck B is shorter than that in Deck A, the Play Key of Deck  
B will be released automatically at the end of the tape. Tape A will continue to record  
until the tape reaches its end, or its Stop / Eject key is pressed.  
Do not stick paper or write anything with a ballpoint pen on the label side of the disc.  
If the length of the tape in Deck A is shorter than that in Deck B. The Record and  
Play Keys of Deck A will be released automatically at the end of tape. Tape B will

If on improperly centred disc is played, noise can be heard in the mechanism. The  
use of such discs should be avoided.  
Continuously pressing the DOWN button makes the CD player skip back through  
the disc track by track. Once the beginning of the first track is reached, the CD player will  
not go back any further.  
IMPORTANT INFORMATION  
This compact disc player has built-in error compensation circuits to correct for minor defects  
in a disc. There are limits, however, to the amount of correction available. In some cases,  
the CD player may skip some tracks on a disc during disc play. This problem may be cause  
by defects (such as scratches) in the disc being played, which are too large for the error  
compensation circuits to handle. If you encounter this problem, check the CD player’s  
operation as follows, before having the unit serviced: Play a new disc. If the CD player  
operates normally, the skipping problem is probably due to a defective disc.  
Notes: The Skip Forwards and Backwards buttons can be used to select a desired track to  
play from before disc play starts. In this case the number of the selected track will be  
displayed until the PLAY/PAUSE Button is pressed.  
MANUAL SEARCH  
During playback, pressing the UP or DOWN Search buttons ꢀ ꢁ will cause the player

AC CONNECTION  
AC CONNECTION  
CASSETTE CARE  
Plug the power cord into an AC outlet having 120V ~ 60Hz only. Connecting this unit to other power  
Two common causes of trouble experienced when using cassettes are:—  
(a) Tape jamming — Leading to uneven speed in playback, and  
sources may damage the unit.  
(b) Tape tangling — Where the tape wraps itself around vital parts of the mechanism.  
NOTES:  
To reduce the likelihood of these problems occurring, the following precautions should be  
observed.  
*The AC polarized to help minimize the possibility of electric shock.  
If the polarized plug does not fit into a nonpolarized AC outlet,  
do not file or cut the wide blade; it is the user`s responsibility  
to have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.  
*The power cord should be unplugged from the outlet  
when the unit is not going to be used for a long period of time.  
Check that there are no loose layers of tape visible through the  
cassette centre window (see Fig. 1). Take up any loose layers, using a  
pencil or hexagonal barrelled ballpoint pen, before inserting the  
cassette into the machine (see Fig. 2).  
If the cassette feels "tight" while performing operation shown in Fig. 2,  
the tape may be jamming due to "ridges" formed in the winding of the  
tape (visible through the centre window). These may be removed, in  
most cases, by fast winding of the cassette from one end to the other  
and back again.  
Use only well-known brands of tape.  
SPECIFICATIONS  
Power Supply  
Avoid use of C-120 cassettes.  
Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, dust or oil, and do not touch the tape surfaces.  
HEAD CLEANING  
AC:  
120V ~ 60Hz  
Radio Frequency Coverage  
The tape heads, pinch roller and capstan require periodic cleaning. This removes particles of  
the metal oxide coating that wear off the tape and accumulate on these parts and impair  
performance. Switch off the power, press the Stop/Eject Button to open the cassette door,  
and press the Play Button. Clean the tape heads, pinch roller and capstan with a special tape  
head cleaner. Avaliable from most HiFi shops.

PREVENTION AGAINST ACCIDENTAL ERASURE  
Design and specifications are subject to change without notice.  
To prevent a recording on a cassette tape being erased accidentally, break off the tab on  
the rear of the tape, as in the diagram. Now recording on this side  
is no longer possible. You can render this protection ineffective by  
covering the hole with a piece of adhesive tape.
