result. Always use it in a place where there is low humidity and little tion to form on the optical lens inside the unit. If this happens, take out

dust. the disc, leave the unit with the disc tray extended for about 1 hour,

Do not use where there are extremes of temperature (below 5°C or and then proceed to operate.

exceeding 35”C) or where direct sunlight may strike it.

- Because of the CD player’s extremely low noise and wide dynamic

range, there might be a tendency to set the volume on the amplifier

unnecessarily high. Doing so may produce an excessively large

output from the amplifier which could damage your speakers.

CONNECTIONS

Y

FM outdoor aerial

‘~‘imp’eindJqG

Speaker terminals (SPEAKERS)These terminals will accept speakers of 8 ohms minimum impedance.

The speaker wires should be connected to the speaker terminals with the

proper polarity. The red terminals are (+) positive and black terminals are

(-) negative.

Phono input sockets (PHONO) and DC 12V socketConnect the output leads and power supply lead of the SANYO TP-X1 000

turntable to the PHONO sockets and DC 12V socket of the unit respec-

tively.

Video equipment input sockets (VIDEO)Connect the audio output from a video equipment.

Headphones socket (HEADPHONES)Connect stereo headphones (8 ohms - 10 kohms, not supplied) for

monitoring orfor private listening. The speakers are automatically discon-

nected when headphones are connected to this socket.

Power supplyConnect the mains lead to an AC wall outlet.

>te:

-- uo not connect the mains lead to an AC outlet until all connections have

been made.

The unit is not disconnected from the mains unless it is unplugged from

the AC outlet.

AerialsFM aerial

In areas close to a transmitter the simple indoor aerial is sufficient to

receive FM broadcasts. Extend the aerial wire as straight as possible and,

while listening to the sound from the system, secure it in a position which

yields minimal distortion and noise.

In fringe areas or where reception is distorted or noisy, an FM outdoor

aerial (not supplied) should be connected instead of the simple indoor

aerial. Consult your dealer.

AM loop aerial

Mount the loop aerial in the aerial holder and place it in a position which

yields the best AM reception, or attach the aerial holder to a wall or other

surface. Adjust the angle of the aerial for the best reception.

Note:

To minimize noise, do not place the aerial close to the system or a TV.
