SOLID STATE DUAL AUDIO RECORDER
INSTRUCTION MANUAL (Version 1.0)

CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT
1. To ensure the best performance, please read this
manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future
reference.
2. Install your unit in a cool, dry, clean, dust-free
environment - away from windows and sources of moisture,
cold, vibration, or devices which may induce hum such as
transformers or electric motors. To prevent fire or electrical
shock, do not expose the unit to rain or water.
3. Do not operate the unit upside-down.
4. Never open the cabinet. If a foreign object drops into the
unit, contact your dealer.
5. Place the unit in a location with adequate air circulation.
Do not interfere with its proper ventilation; this will cause
the internal temperature to rise and may result in a failure.
6. Do not apply excessive force to switches, knobs or
cords/cables. Before moving the unit, always turn off the
power and carefully disconnect the power plug and the
cords connecting to other equipment. Always hold the plug,
never pull the cord itself.
7. Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents:
this might damage the finish. Use only a clean, dry cloth.
8. Be sure to read the "Troubleshooting" section on
common operating errors before concluding that your unit
is faulty.
9. This unit consumes power even when the power switch
is turned off. We recommend that you unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet if the unit is not going to be used
for a long time. This will save electricity and help prevent a
fire hazard. To disconnect the cord, pull it out by grasping
the plug, never pull the cord itself.
10. To prevent lightning damage, pull out the power cord
and where applicable, remove the antenna cable during an
electrical storm.
11. Digital signals may cause interference to other
equipment such as tuners or receivers. The SU-200R
should be moved away from such equipment if
interference is observed.
NOTE:
Please check the copyright laws in your country before
recording from records, compact discs, radio, etc.
Recording of copyrighted material may infringe copyright
laws.
CAUTION
The apparatus is not disconnected from the AC power
source so long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if
the apparatus itself is turned off. To fully ensure that the
apparatus is indeed fully void of residual power, leave unit
disconnected from the AC outlet for at least fifteen
seconds.
