PRECAUTIONS (=: [B))
elf the set is not used for a long period of time or is
used only from an AC power source, remove all the
batteries to prevent potential damage due to possi-
ble battery leakage.
® Avoid using or placing this unit near sources of heat. Do
not leave it in an automobile exposed to direct sunlight
for a long period of time with the doors and windows
closed, as this may deform the cabinet.
eWhen not in use, disconnect the AC adaptor from the
AC power outlet.
CASSETTE TAPES (wc)
Cassette tapes, both recorded and unrecorded, should
not be stored in locations with high temperature, high
humidity or direct sunlight. Never place a recorded
cassette near a magnetic source such as a magnet or a
TV set as this may affect tape performance.
Precautions for Listening with the
Headphones
eDo not play your headset at a high volume. Hearing
experts advise against continuous extended play.
elf you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce
volume or discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It
may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many
areas.
eYou should use extreme caution or temporarily
discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
eEven if your headset is an open-air type designed
to let you hear outside sounds, don't turn up the
volume so high that you can't hear what's around
you.

Notes: |
e To receive FM stereo broadcasts, set the FM/Mode

the FM Mode Selector to “MONO”. This will reduce
the noise and provide more clear reception; howev-
er, the broadcast will not be heard in stereo.
eDo not use old and new batteries together. Also
never use an alkaline battery with a manganese
battery.
E XBS Level Control
Set this control to “MAX” during broadcasting or tape
playback to boost the low frequency range. You can
enjoy dynamic low sound as if you were in a concert hail.
Mm Graphic Equalizer
It allows you to tailor the frequency response of the unit
to compensate for room acoustics and other factors
which affect frequency response. The overall tone can
be aitered by adjusting the controls which control the
following frequency bands:
330 Hz, 1 kHz, 10 kHz
Positioning the control to the "+" side of the detent will
amplify the corresponding frequency band; the “—" side
will attenuate it.

mM Antennas
FM: |
The earphones cord serves as the FM antenna, hence
be sure to use it extended, not coiled.
AM:
The sensitive ferrite core antenna inside the set will
provide excellent AM reception in most areas. For
optimum reception, turn the set in the direction which
gives the best results, since the ferrite core antenna is
directional.
Note:
Be sure to have the set in an upright position when
you listen to AM broadcasts. If you use the radio in a
horizontal position, it may not function adequately.
