FOR CANADIAN CUSTOMER
THIS CLASS B DIGITAL APPARATUS MEETS ALL
REQUIREMENTS OF THE CANADIAN INTERFERENCE-
CAUSING EQUIPMENT REGULATIONS.
PRECAUTIONS: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT
■ Sudden temperature changes and storage or operation in an
extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside the
cabinet.
Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction.
To eliminate condensation:
•
CD pickup
Leave the power on with no disc in the unit until normal
playback is possible (about 1 hour).
•
Tape head
Leave the power on with no cassette in the unit until normal
playback is possible (about 1 hour).
Note
If condensation forms on the tape head, foreign matter may
accumulate during use.
•
Remote control
Wipe off condensation on the transmitter window with a soft
cloth before operating the unit.
■ This system is equipped with the newly developed Active Servo
Processing Speaker System. It is not designed for use with
conventional speakers. Therefore, do not attempt to connect
other speakers than the provided speaker system.
■ Choose the installation location of this unit carefully. Avoid
placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid
locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat, cold or
moisture. Keep it away from sources of hum such as
transformers and electric motors.
■ Do not operate this unit upside-down. It may overheat, possibly
causing damage.
■ Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact
your dealer.
■ Always set the VOLUME control to minimum before starting the
audio source: increase the volume gradually to an appropriate
level after play has started.
■ Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires. When
moving the unit, first disconnect the power plug and the wires
connected to other equipment. Never pull the wire itself.
■ Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents; this might
damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
■ Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section regarding
common operating errors before concluding that the unit is faulty.
■ To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug and
the antenna cable when there is an electrical storm.
■ Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket before you
finish all connections.
■ Never allow metallic items (e.g. screwdrivers, tools, etc.) to come
near the cassette deck’s record/playback head assembly in this
unit. Doing so may not only scratch or damage the head’s mirror-
smooth finish, it may change the magnetic characteristics of the
heads, causing a deterioration in reproduction performance
quality.
■ Although the cassette deck’s record/playback heads used in this
unit are high quality heads with outstanding reproduction
characteristics, they can become dirty through the use of old
tapes or from dust accumulation over time. This can have a
serious effect on reproduction quality. Clean the heads regularly
with one of the commonly available head cleaners or with
cleaning solutions.
■ The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on
this unit. Using this product with a higher voltage than that which
is specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of
accident causing damage. YAMAHA will not be held responsible
for any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other
than that which is specified.
■ The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker
location and other factors. Care should be taken to avoid
exposure to sudden high levels of sound, which may occur when
turning on the unit with the volume control setting at high, and to
continuous high levels of sound.
The apparatus is not disconnected from the AC power
source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if
the apparatus itself is turned off.

2 Insert 2 “AA” size batteries (UM/SUM-3, R6, HP-7 or
equivalent) into the battery compartment.
* Installing the batteries improperly may cause failure.
3 Replace the battery compartment cover.
Precautions for battery use
•
Insert the batteries according to the direction indicated in
the battery compartment.
•
Replace all batteries with new ones at the same time.
•
Remove the batteries if they are weak or if the unit is not
in use for long periods.
•
Don’t mix normal batteries with rechargeable batteries.
Proper use of the remote control
transmitter
(See figure 7 on page 99.)
Aim (within the range of 60° with no obstacles) the remote
control transmitter at the remote control sensor and operate
as shown.
Notes concerning use
•
Replace the batteries if control distance decreases or
operation becomes unstable.
•
Periodically clean the transmitter window on the remote
control transmitter and the sensor on the main unit with a
soft cloth.
•
Exposing the sensor on the main unit to strong light
(especially an inverter type of fluorescent lamp etc.) may
interfere with operation. In this case, reposition the main
unit to avoid direct lighting.
•
Keep the remote control transmitter away from moisture,
excessive heat, shock and vibrations.
•
The remote control transmitter’s usable range is within
0.2m (8”) and 6m (20’) away from the sensor.
REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER
(See figure 9 on page 99.)
•
Be sure that your headphones have a 3.5 mm (1/8”)
diameter plug and are between 16 ohms and 50 ohms
impedance. Recommended impedance is 32 ohms.
•
When headphones are connected, the speakers are
defeated automatically. Adjust the VOLUME control for
desired volume.
LISTENING WITH HEADPHONES

English
Antenna connection
(1) Supplied FM antenna
Connect the FM antenna wire to the corresponding terminal
and direct the FM antenna wire to the direction where the
strongest signal can be received.
(2) Supplied AM (MW/LW) loop antenna
Connect the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna wires to the
corresponding terminals. Position the AM (MW/LW) loop
antenna for optimum reception. Place the AM (MW/LW) loop
antenna on a shelf etc., or install it on the rack or wall with
screws (not supplied).
Notes
•
When static is still heard even after adjusting the position
of the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna, try reversing the wire
connections (right to left).
•
Do not place the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna on the unit. It
will result in noise generation, since the unit is equipped
with digital electronics. Place the AM (MW/LW) loop
antenna away from the unit.
(3) External FM antenna
Use an external FM antenna instead of an indoor FM
antenna if you need better reception. Consult your dealer.
(4) External AM (MW/LW) antenna
Use an external AM (MW/LW) antenna if you need better
reception. Consult your dealer.
Note
When using an external AM (MW/LW) antenna, be sure to
keep the wire of the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna connected.

Because the interstation frequency spacing differs in
different areas, set the FREQUENCY STEP switch
(located at the rear) according to the frequency spacing in
your area. Before setting this switch, disconnect the AC
supply lead of this unit from the AC outlet.
Never plug the AC supply lead of this system into the AC outlet until all connections are
completed.

display the time. If the power is off, you can proceed to the
next step.
2 While holding the TIME ADJ button pressed, press the
HOUR button and set the hour.
* Press the HOUR button once to advance the time by 1
hour. Press and hold to advance continuously.
* To reverse the hour, press the button instead of
the HOUR button.
3 While holding the TIME ADJ button pressed, press the

* Press the MIN button once to advance the time by 1
minute. Press and hold to advance continuously.
* The hour setting will not advance even if minute is
advanced from “59” to “00”.
* To reverse the minute, press the button instead of
the MIN button.
Europe, U.K., Australia and Singapore models use a 24-
hour display. U.S.A. and Canada models use a 12-hour
display shown by “AM (PM) 00:00”. For General model,
either the 24-hour display or the 12-hour display is
selected depending on the setting of the FREQUENCY
STEP switch on the rear panel, so you cannot select a
desired type freely.
In the event of a power failure or when the AC supply
lead is disconnected.
The time display will go out, however, the clock will function
for about 5 minutes without power supply. So you do not
have to reset the time if the AC power supply is resumed
within about 5 minutes.
When the AC power supply is resumed after more than 5
minutes pass without power supply, the time display will flash
on and off to indicate that the time must be reset.
SETTING THE CLOCK

system completely, disconnect the AC power plug from the
AC outlet.
TURNING THE POWER ON/OFF TO THIS SYSTEM
(See figure B on page 1100.)
If the AC supply lead is connected to the AC outlet, this
system can be turned ON and OFF (STANDBY mode) by
pressing the POWER switch on the front panel of the main
unit or the POWER switch on the remote control transmitter.
Automatic power-off function
The power of this system will be automatically turned off if
there is no operation on the control parts of this system, no
illumination on the graphic equalizer indicators and no
playback of CD or tape for about 30 minutes.

COMPACT DISC PLAYER OPERATION
Care of compact discs
Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however
mistracking can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the
disc surface.
Follow the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from
your CD collection and player.
•
Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the non-
label side. Signals are read from the non-label side. Do
not mark this surface.
•
Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat and
excessive moisture.
•
Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt or
water on the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD
is dirty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry
cloth, wiping straight out from the center, along the radius.
If desired, you can adjust brightness of the display.
1 Press and hold the DISPLAY button for more than 2
seconds so that “DIMMER±0” appears on the display.
2 Holding the DISPLAY button pressed, turn the VOLUME
control clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to
decrease brightness.
This adjustment can be made even though the power of this
unit is off (in the standby mode).
Control range
When the power is on: ±0 to –6 (Preset value: ±0)
When the power is off: +3 to –3 (Preset value: ±0)

Notes
•
The automatic preset tuning search will be performed
through all frequencies until 40 stations are stored. If the
number of received stations is less than 40, the search will
stop after searching all frequencies.
* Since FM stations are searched for first, there may be a
case that 40 preset stations are occupied by FM
stations only.
•
<U.K. and Europe models only>
The unit is originally set so that only RDS stations are
searched instead of all FM stations by this operation. (FM
stations that employ no RDS network service cannot be
programmed.)
However, you can change the setting so that the unit can
program not only RDS stations but also other FM stations.
(Refer to page 23 for details.)
•
With this function, only stations with sufficient signal
strength are stored automatically. If the station you want
to program is weak in signal strength, tune to it in
monaural manually and program it by following the
procedure of the section “To store stations” on the
previous page.
•
You can replace a preset station by another FM or AM
(MW or LW) station manually by simply following the
procedure of the section “To store stations” on the
previous page.

FREQ PS/PTY/RT/CT selector button until the display is
turned into the PS mode. If the button is pressed before
the display mode is changed, it may occur that “NO PS”
appears on the display. This is because the unit has not
received all of the RDS data on the station yet.
➀ Frequency display mode
The frequency of the station being received is
displayed.
➁ PS (Program Service name) mode
The name of the station being received is displayed
using characters selected from among 64 Roman
Alphabets including umlaut sign. If other characters
are used on the PS data, they are displayed with
underbars.
“PS WAIT” may flash while the unit is receiving the
data.
If the station does not employ the PS data service,
“NO PS” lights up on the display for about 2 seconds
and then returns to frequency display mode.
➂ PTY (Program Type) mode
The type of the program on the station being received
is displayed. If the RDS station does not employ the
PTY data service, “NO PTY” lights up on the display
for about 2 seconds and then returns to frequency
display mode.
If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the
PS mode.
In this mode, you can make this unit search for a
station which is broadcasting a program of your
desired program type. For details, refer to the next
page.
➃ RT (Radio Text) mode
Information about the program on the station being
received is displayed. Information is displayed by a
maximum of 64 Roman Alphabets including umlaut
sign. If other characters are used on the RT data, they
are displayed with underbars.
“RT WAIT” may flash while the unit is receiving the
data.
If the RDS station does not employ the RT data
service, “NO RT” lights up on the display for about 2
seconds and then returns to frequency display mode.
If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the
PS mode.
➄ CT (Clock Time) mode
Current time is displayed in the following form. The
CT data from the station being received changes
every minute.
This unit corrects time of the built-in clock by
synchronizing it with the CT data. (This function can
also be canceled, if so desired. Refer to page 23 for
details.)
“CT WAIT” may flash while the unit is receiving the
data. If the data is accidentally cut off, “CT WAIT” may
flash and then turn into “NO CT”.
If the RDS station does not employ the CT data
service, “NO CT” lights up on the display for about 2
seconds and then returns to frequency display mode.
If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the
PS mode.

E-22
Calling a program of your desired
program type from among preset
RDS stations (PTY SEEK)
By designating a program type, the unit automatically
searches all preset FM stations for an RDS station which
broadcasts a program of that program type.
* There are 15 program types to classify RDS stations. For
details, refer to page 20.
1 Turn the unit into the PTY SEEK mode by pressing the
PTY SEEK MODE button.
* The name of the program type of the station now being
received or “NEWS” flashes on the display.
2 Select the desired program type with the or
button.
* If there is no operation for about 20 seconds, this mode
is canceled and turns into the frequency display. If the
station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS
mode.
3 Press the PTY SEEK START button.
The unit begins searching all preset FM stations.
* “PTY HOLD” lights up on the display.
* The preset number indicator, the name of the program
type and “AUTO” flash. The preset number changes
rapidly in sequence.
• If a station which broadcasts a program of the program
type is found, the unit stops at the station and turns into the
frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it
turns into the PS mode.
• If the called station is not the desired one, press the PTY
SEEK START button once more before “PTY HOLD” goes
out from the display. The unit begins searching for another
station which broadcasts a program of the same program
type.
• If no station is found, “NO PTY” appears and then returns
to frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that,
it turns into the PS mode.
* If the PTY SEEK START button is pressed once more
during searching, this mode is canceled and turns into
the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after
that, it turns into the PS mode.
To cancel this function
If the PTY SEEK MODE button is pressed once more, the
PTY SEEK mode is canceled and turns into the frequency
display. If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the
PS mode.
Notes
• RDS data service cannot be utilized by this unit if the
received signal is not strong enough. Especially, the RT
(Radio Text mode) needs much data to be received, so it
may occur that RT mode cannot be displayed even if other
RDS modes (PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed.
• There may be a case that RDS data reception is not
possible due to poor reception conditions. If so, press the
AUTO/MAN’L button so that “AUTO” goes off from the
display. Though the reception mode is changed to
monaural by this operation, when you change the display to
an RDS mode, RDS data may be displayed.
• If the signal strength gets weakened by external
interference during receiving an RDS station, the RDS data
service may be cut off suddenly and turn into the frequency
display mode.

Dolby B Type Noise Reduction
Dolby noise reduction is an extremely effective method of
reducing undesirable background hiss on tapes. This unit
incorporates Dolby B type noise reduction system that is the
most popular one and almost of commercially available
music tapes are recorded with the Dolby B NR.
Dolby B NR has a noise reduction effect of about 10 dB in
the high frequency range.
Dolby noise reduction is a 2 part process that acts both on
recording and playback; be sure that the same noise
reduction is used on recording and playback.
Notes
* Tapes encoded with Dolby NR system should be decoded
with the same Dolby NR system. Nevertheless, a Dolby
encoded tape can be played back without decoding (and
vice versa) with no harm to the recorded sound.
* Noise in the source material cannot be reduced with the
Dolby NR system.

HOW TO USE THE BUILT-IN TIMER
Timer play
By using the built-in timer, you can set the time when the unit
turns on and a source begins playing automatically, and the
time when the unit turns off automatically.
1 Prepare the source to be played.
For tuner:
Tune in to the station you will listen to.
For tape deck:
Load a tape into the cassette compartment.
(If tapes are loaded in both the compartments, tape 1
takes priority of tape 2, and is played back by the timer
play.)
For CD player:
Load a disc on the disc table. If more than one disc are
loaded on the disc table, select the disc by using the
DISC selector buttons or the DISC SKIP button.
2 Press the DISPLAY button.
Whenever the DISPLAY button is pressed, the display
mode changes as follows.
At each mode, make a setting for the timer play, referring
to the setting procedure described below.
➀ Current time (TIMER on/off mode)
➁ Source selecting mode (TAPE, TUNER, CD)
➂ ON TIME/Time setting mode
➃ OFF TIME/Time setting mode
➄ Normal display mode
* The display mode will be changed to the next mode
after about 8 seconds elapse automatically. If the mode
is changed before the setting is completed, call the
mode again by pressing the DISPLAY button once or
more.
Setting procedure:
➀ At the display of current time
Check to be sure that the current time is correct, and
press the TIMER button so that “TIMER” lights up on
the display.
➁ At source selecting mode
Select the source (TAPE, TUNER or CD) to be played
by pressing the corresponding input selector button.
* If “TUNER” is selected, soon it is changed to the
frequency display mode. In this mode, you can
select the station to listen to with the timer play by
using the BAND button, A/B/C/D/E button and
/ buttons.

At ON TIME/time setting mode
[“ON TIME” appears on the display, and soon it is
changed to a time setting mode.]
Set to the time when you want to begin the timer play
by using the HOUR button and the MIN button.
➃ At OFF TIME/time setting mode
[“OFF TIME” appears on the display, and soon it is
changed to a time setting mode.]
If necessary, set to the time when you want to finish
the timer play (to turn this unit off) by using the HOUR
button and the MIN button. Even if you do not set the
time, it has already been set so that the timer play
finishes after 1 hour.
* The TIMER button functions also in the time (ON
TIME or OFF TIME) setting mode. (However, it also
turns off the power.)
3 If you will not use this unit until the timer play begins, turn
the power off by pressing the POWER switch or the
TIMER button.
Note
If a timer play setting is made and the power is not turned off,
the source set for the timer play will begin playing when the
time comes in place of the source played at that time.
To cancel the timer play setting
After the timer play is finished, press the DISPLAY button to
call the current time. While the current time is displayed,
press the TIMER button so that “TIMER” goes out from the
display.
If it is not canceled, the system will be turned on at the same
time every day, so it can be used as an alarm. However, if
you are planning to go out at that time, cancel the timer play
setting.
* Unless the AC supply lead is unplugged or there is a
power failure for more than 5 minutes, the time set on the
timer will be retained until it is reset.
How to make time setting in the ON TIME or OFF
TIME mode
For the hour:
Press the HOUR button to change the hour to a higher value.
Press and hold to change continuously.
To change the hour to a lower value, press the button.
For the minute:
Use the MIN button and operate it in the same way as you
did to change the hour.
To change the minute to a lower value, press the
button.
