*When the System is in use, the display shows other items as well. For simplicity, we show here only the items described in this section.

Turning the Power On and Off

Turning the System On

1 Press the STANDBY/ON button.

STANDBY/ON

or

The display comes on and “POWER ON” is displayed once. The STANDBY indicator goes out.

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 listening 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

1 Press the STANDBY/ON button again.

STANDBY/ON

or

“GOOD BYE” is displayed and the display goes out, except for the clock display. The STANDBY indicator lights up. (The display is dimmed.)

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 immediately.

Adjusting the Volume

Turn the VOLUME control on the Unit clockwise to increase the volume or turn it counterclockwise to decrease the volume.

Press the VOLUME + button on the Remote Control to increase the volume or press the VOLUME – button on the Remote Control to decrease the volume.

You can set the volume level to MIN, 1-31, or MAX.

When you turn the power off at a volume level of over 19, the volume level is automatically set to 18 when the power is turned back on.

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 putting on headphones.
