How This Manual Is Organized

•Basic information that is the same for many different functions - e.g. setting the volume - is given in the section ‘Basic Operations’, and not repeated under each function.

•The names of buttons/controls and display messages are written in all capital letters: e.g. FM/AM, “CD NO DISC”.

•System functions are written with an initial capital letter only: e.g. Normal Play.

Use the table of contents to look up specific information you require.

We have enjoyed making this manual for you, and hope it serves you in enjoying the many features built into your System.
