Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your
musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your
equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level.
One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and,
most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of
sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against
this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
•Start your volume control at a low setting.
•Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distor-
tion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
•Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all,
we want you listening for a lifetime.
We WantYou Listening ForA Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since
hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid pro-
longed exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.
Decibel
Level Example
30 Quiet library, soft whispers
40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic
50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office
60 Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine
70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant
80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock at two feet.
THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE
90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower
100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill
120 Rock band concert in front of speakers, thunderclap
140 Gunshot blast, jet plane
180 Rocket launching pad

Audio Adjustment
Front Image Enhancer Function (FIE)
The F.I.E. (Front Image Enhancer) function is a simple method of enhancing front imaging
by cutting mid- and high-range frequency output from the rear speakers, limiting their out-
put to low-range frequencies. You can select the frequency you want to cut.
1. Press the AUDIO button and select the F.I.E. mode (FIE) in the Audio
Menu.
Note:
• After switching the F.I.E. function ON, select the Fader/Balance mode in the Audio Menu, and
adjust front and rear speaker volume levels until they are balanced.
• Switch the F.I.E. function OFF when using a 2-speaker system.
Source Level Adjustment (SLA)
The SLA (Source Level Adjustment) function prevents radical leaps in volume level when
switching between sources. Settings are based on the FM volume level, which remains
unchanged.
1. Compare the FM volume with the volume of the other source
(e.g. Cassette player).
2. Press the AUDIO button and select the SLA mode (SLA) in the Audio Menu.
Note:
• Since the FM volume is the control, SLA is not possible in the FM modes.
• The AM volume level, which is different from the FM base setting volume level, can be adjusted
similar to sources other than tuner.
3. Increase or decrease the level
with the +/– buttons.
The display shows “+4” – “–4”.
3. Select the desired frequency
with the 2/3buttons.
100 += 160 += 250 (Hz)
“FIE”
2. Switch the F.I.E. function
ON/OFF with the +/– buttons.
Precaution:
• When the F.I.E. function is deactivated, the rear speakers output sound of all frequencies, not
just bass sounds. Reduce the volume before disengaging F.I.E. to prevent a sudden increase in
volume.

Cassette Player and Care
Precaution
About the Cassette Player
• A loose or warped label on a cassette tape may interfere with the eject mechanism of the
unit or cause the cassette to become jammed in the unit. Avoid using such tapes or
remove such labels from the cassette before attempting use.
• Be sure to eject the tape when the vehicle’s ignition is turned OFF. Leaving the tape in
the unit can deform the pinch roller causing wow and flutter during tape playback.
About Cassette Tapes
• Loose tapes should be rewound with the aid of a pencil and unevenly wound tapes
rewound with the use of the fast forward function.
• Do not use tapes longer than C-90 type (90 min.) cassettes. Longer tapes can interfere
with tape transport.
• Storing cassettes in areas directly exposed to sunlight or high temperatures can distort
them and subsequently interfere with tape transport.
• Store unused tapes in a tape case where there is no danger of them becoming loose or
being exposed to dust.
Cleaning the Head
If the head becomes dirty, the sound quality will deteriorate and there will be sound
dropouts and other imperfections in performance. In this case, the head must be cleaned.
