How to reset your unit

While holding SEL (select), press (standby/on attenuator) for more than 2 seconds.

This will reset the built-in microcomputer.

Notes:

• Your preset adjustments—such as preset channels or sound adjustments—will also be erased.

• If a disc is in the unit, it will eject when you reset the unit. Be careful not to drop the disc.

How to use the MODE button

If you press MODE, the unit goes into functions mode, then the number buttons and 5/∞ buttons

work as different function buttons.

Ex.: When number button 2 works as MO (monaural) button.

To use these buttons for original functions again after pressing MODE, wait for 5 seconds

without pressing any of these buttons until the functions mode is cleared.

• Pressing MODE again also clears the functions mode.
