IMPORTANT FOR LASER PRODUCTS
Precautions:
1. CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT
2. CAUTION: Invisible laser radiation when open and interlock failed or defeated. Avoid direct exposure
to beam.
3. CAUTION: Do not open the top cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Leave all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
4. CAUTION: This CD player uses invisible laser radiation, however, is equipped with safety switches
to prevent radiation emission when unloading CDs. It is dangerous to defeat the safety switches.
5. CAUTION: Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Caution:
If the temperature inside the car is below 0°C (32°F), the movement of source animation and text scroll will
be halted on the display to prevent the display from being blurred. When the temperature increases, and the
operating temperature is resumed, these functions will start working again.
CAUTION on Volume Setting:
Discs produce very little noise compared with other sources. If the volume level is adjusted for the tuner, for
example, the speakers may be damaged by the sudden increase in the output level. Therefore, lower the
volume before playing a disc and adjust it as required during playback.
INFORMATION (For U.S.A.)
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

receive:
1Press M (MODE) while listening to an FM
stereo broadcast.
“Mode” appears on the display.
The next-step-operation buttons
start flashing.
2Press number button 1 to select “Mono On”

To tune in to stations
of higher frequencies
To tune in to stations of lower frequencies
If the sound quality decreases and the
stereo effect is lost while listening to an
FM station
In some areas, adjacent stations may
interfere with each other. If this interference
occurs, this unit can automatically reduce this
interference noise (the initial setting when
shipped from the factory). However, in this
case, the sound quality will be degraded and
the stereo effect will also be lost.
If you do not want to degrade the sound
quality and to lose the stereo effect, rather
than to eliminate the interference noise, see
“To change the FM tuner selectivity—IF Filter”
on page 27.
Storing stations in memory
You can use one of the following two methods to
store broadcasting stations in memory.
• Automatic preset of FM stations: SSM (Strong-
station Sequential Memory)
• Manual preset of both FM and AM stations
FM station automatic preset: SSM
You can preset 6 local FM stations in each FM
band (FM1, FM2, and FM3).
1 Select the FM band (FM1 – 3) you
want to store FM stations into.
Each time you press the
button, the band changes as
follows:

buttons start flashing.
2Press and hold number button 5, while
“Mode” is still on the display.
Local FM stations with the strongest signals are
searched and stored automatically in the band
number you have selected (FM1, FM2, or FM3).
These stations are preset in the number buttons
—No.1 (lowest frequency) to No.6 (highest
frequency).
When automatic preset is over, the station stored
in number button 1 will be automatically tuned in.
Manual preset

(FM1, FM2, FM3, and AM) manually.
Ex.: Storing FM station of 88.3 MHz into the
preset number 1 of the FM1 band.

want to store stations into (in this
example, FM1).
Each time you press the
button, the band changes as
follows:

“–SSM–” appears, then disappears
when automatic preset is over.
2 Tune in to a station (in this example,
of 88.3 MHz).
3 Press and hold the number button
(in this example, 1) for more than
2 seconds.
4 Repeat the above procedure to store
other stations into other preset
numbers.
Notes:
• A previously preset station is erased when a new
station is stored in the same preset number.
• Preset stations are erased when the power supply to
the memory circuit is interrupted (for example,
during battery replacement). If this occurs, preset
the stations again.
The display pattern automatically changes
to the small animation display (see page
14). The preset number flashes for about
5 seconds, then the previous display pattern
resumes.
