Remote Control Operation

The provided Remote Control Unit allows the unit to be operated from a distance.

When operating the remote control unit, point it towards the remote sensor on the front panel of the unit.

…Even if the remote control unit is operated within the effective range, remote control operation may be impossible if there are any obstacles between the player and the remote control.

…If the remote control unit is operated near other appliances which generate infrared rays, or if other remote control devices using infrated rays are used near the player, the player may operate incorrectly. In the reverse way, the other appliances may operate incorrectly.

Battery Installation

1.Remove the battery compartment cover.

2.Insert two "AA" (R6, SUM-3) dry batteries.

Make sure that the batteries are inserted with their positive ± and negative — poles positioned correctly.

3.Close the cover until it clicks. Battery Replacement

If you notice that the distance between the remote control unit and the player for correct operation becomes shorter, it indicates that the batteries are exhausted. In this case replace the batteries with new ones.

Precautions concerning batteries

…Be sure to insert the batteries with correct positive ± and negative — polarities.

…Use batteries of the same type. Never use different types of batteries together.

…Rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries can be used. Refer to the precautions on their labels.

…When the remote control unit is not to be used for a long time (more than a month), remove the batteries from the remote control unit to prevent them from leaking. If they leak, wipe away the liquid inside the battery compartment and replace the batteries with new ones.

…Do not heat or disassemble batteries and never dispose of old batteries by throwing them in a fire.

Maintenance

The heads and tape path should be cleaned and demagnetized periodically.

Cleaning Tape Path

…Apply head cleaning fluid to a cotton swab or soft cloth, and lightly rub the heads, capstan and all metal parts in the tape path.

…Also clean the pinch roller using rubber cleaning fluid.
