This unit incorporates Dolby B/C type noise reduction systems. The conventional Dolby B-type noise reduction provides approximately 8 dB improvement in S/N ratio and C-type adds additional improvement over the B-type. The noise reduction is applied to both recording and playback; be sure that the same noise reduction is used on recording and playback. Pressing DOLBY NR switches between Dolby B, C and OFF. Dolby noise reduction manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. “DOLBY” and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. E-2  PRECAUTIONS: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING THE UNIT carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference. • Install your unit in a well ventilated, cool, dry, clean place – away from windows, heat sources, vibration, dust, moisture, or cold. To avoid humming sounds, locate the unit away from other electrical appliances, motors, and transformers. To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not expose to rain and water. • Do not operate the unit upside-down. It may overheat, possibly causing damage. • Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact your dealer. • • Do not use force on switches, knobs or cords. • Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or polarization of the unit is not defeated. • Do not clean the unit with chemical solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth. • Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section on common operating errors before concluding that your unit is faulty. • Do not place another component on top of this unit, as damage or discoloration on the surface of the unit may result. • To prevent damage by lightning, disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet during an electrical storm. When not planning to use this unit for long periods of time (i.e., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet. • When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, grasp the plug; do not pull the cord. • Do not plug the AC power cord to the wall outlet before you finish all connections. • The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on this unit. Using this unit 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. • Never allow metallic items (e. g. screwdrivers, tools, etc.) to come near the record/playback head assembly. Doing so may not only scratch or damage the head’s mirror-smooth finish, but also change the magnetic characteristics of the heads, causing a deterioration in reproduction quality. • Although the record/playback head used in this unit is a high quality head with outstanding reproduction characteristics, it 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 an appropriate cleaning solution. This unit is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this unit itself is turned off. This state is called the standby mode. In this state, this unit is designed to consume a very small quantity of power.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR U.K. MODEL IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Blue: NEUTRAL Brown: LIVE As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured BLACK. The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured RED. Making sure that neither core is connected to the earth terminal of the three pin plug. For U.K. customers If the socket outlets in the home are not suitable for the plug supplied with this appliance, it should be cut off and an appropriate 3 pin plug fitted. For details, refer to the instructions described above. Note: The plug severed from the mains lead must be destroyed, as a plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if engaged in a live socket outlet.

E-8  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION English Notes about cassette tapes Cassette tapes • YAMAHA does not recommend the use of 120 minute length cassettes since the extreme thinness of the tape makes them susceptible to mechanical and recording problems. • Since the unit automatically detects the tape type, you can use any type of tape. Protecting your recordings For side A • Tapes have removable tabs, which prevent accidental recording or erasing from taking place. Removing the tab on the top left protects the side facing you from erasure. Cover the tab holes with adhesive tape to erase or record again. For side B Taking up slack in the tape • Before loading a tape on the tray, tighten the slack portion of tape with a pen or pencil. Maintenance • Dirty heads, capstans, and pinch rollers can cause poor sound and tape jams. Clean these parts with a commercially available cleaning tape.
