Basic Operations

Turning the Power On and Off

Turning the System On

Press the % button.
The Top Cover moves backward and the Unit’s top buttons
appear. The display comes on and “HELLO” is displayed
once. The STANDBY/ON indicator lights in green.
The System comes on ready to continue in the mode it was
in when the power was last turned off.
For example, if the last thing you were doing was listen-
ing to a CD, you are now ready to listen to a CD again. If
you wish, you can change to another source.
If you were listening to the Tuner last, the Tuner comes
on playing the station it was last set to.

Turning the System Off

Press the % button again.
The Top Cover moves back to the original position.
“GOOD BYE” is displayed and the display goes out, except
for the clock display. The STANDBY/ON indicator lights in
red.
Some power is always consumed even though power is
turned off (called Standby Mode).
To switch off the System completely, unplug the AC
power cord from the wall outlet. When you unplug the
AC power cord, the clock will be reset to 0:00 after about
20 minutes.

Adjusting the Brightness

(DIMMER)

You can adjust the brightness of the backlighting for the dis-
play.

When the System is Turned On

Each time you press the DIMMER button on the Remote
Control, the brightness of the backlighting changes as fol-
lows:
Bright = Dark = (back to the beginning)

When the System is Turned Off

(STANDBY MODE)

Each time you press the DIMMER button on the Remote
Control, the brightness of the backlighting changes as fol-
lows:
No backlighting = Dark backlighting
= (back to the beginning)
When the System is turned off again after power on, the
brightness in Standby mode will be restored to the previ-
ous one since the brightness setting in Standby mode is
stored in memory.

Adjusting the Volume

Press the VOLUME + button to increase the volume or
press the VOLUME – button to decrease it.
You can adjust the volume level between 0 and 50.
CAUTION:

DO NOT turn on the System and/or start

playing any source without first setting the

VOLUME control to minimum, as a sudden

blast of sound could damage your hearing,

speakers and/or headphones.

For private listening

Connect a pair of headphones to the PHONES jack. No
sound comes out of the speakers.
Be sure to turn down the volume before connecting or put-
ting on headphones.
