SOME DO’S AND DON’TS ON THE
SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT
(for U.K.)
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international
safety standards but, like any electrical equipment, care must be taken if you
are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
DO
read the operating instructions before you attempt to use equipment.
DO
ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, exten-
sion leads and interconnections between pieces of equipment) are properly
made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and
withdraw the mains plug when making or changing connections.
DO
consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, opera-
tion or safety of your equipment.
DO
be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
DON’T
continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it
working normally, or if it is damaged in any way-switch off, withdraw the mains
plug and consult your dealer.
DON’T
remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.
DON’T
leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is spe-
cifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation or has a standby
mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your
family know how to do this. Special arrangements may need to be made for
infirm or handicapped people.
DON’T
use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are
distracted from the requirements of traffic safety. It is illegal to watch televi-
sion whilst driving a vehicle.
DON’T
listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can permanently
damage your hearing.
DON’T
obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or
soft furnishings. Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the
equipment.
DON’T
use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws - to en-
sure complete safety always fit the manufacturer’s approved stand or legs
with the fixings provided according to the instructions.
DON’T
allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.
ABOVE ALL
-
NEVER
let anyone especially children push anything into holes,
slots or any other opening in the case - this could result in a fatal
electrical shock;
-
NEVER
guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any
kind. It is better to be safe than sorry!

• DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY
We declare under our sole responsibility that this produce, to which this
declaration relates, is in conformity with the following standards:
EN60065, EN55013, EN55020, EN6055-2 and EN60555-3.
Following the provisions of 73/23/EEC, 89/336/EEC and 93/68/EEC Di-
rective.
IMPORTANT
The mains lead on this equipment may be supplied with a moulded plug
incorporating a fuse, the value of which is indicated on the pin face of the
plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved BS1362
fuse must be used of the same rating. If the fuse cover is detachable never
use the plug with the cover omitted. If a replacement fuse cover is required,
ensure it is of the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse
covers are available from your dealer.
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fitted is not
suitable for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to reach a
power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or
consult your dealer.
Should it be necessary to change the mains plugs, this must be carried out
by a competent person, preferably a qualified electrician.
If there is no alternative to cutting off the mains plug, ensure that you dispose
of it immediately, having first removed the fuse, to avoid a possible shock
hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.
IMPORTANT
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following
code:
Blue: NEUTRAL
Brown: LIVE
As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying
the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the
letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK. The wire coloured BROWN must be
connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or coloured BROWN or
RED.
On no account connect either of these wires to the terminal marked E or by
the earth symbol
or coloured green or green and yellow.
Alternatively, this equipment may be supplied with a rewireable plug already
fitted, which may be removed if not suitable and an alternative fitted in accor-
dance with the preceding instructions.

PRECAUTIONS
• When the set is not going to be used for a long time, unplug the AC lead and remove
the batteries.
• Do not leave exhausted batteries in the compartment as they will leak and cause
corrosion and damage.
• Never open the covers or touch the inside or insert a metal object. Any of these
operations could cause an electric shock or a fault.
• When thunder starts, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. If the set is being
used outdoors, shorten the antenna and stop using the set.
• Shorten the antenna when carrying the set. If the set is carried with the antenna
extended, it could break.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, extreme heat, and high humidity, or place it
near heat sources, the sea, or in a sandy or dusty place.
• Do not clean the cabinet of the set with strong detergents or solvents as these could
damage the surface finish.
• We discourage the use of C-120 cassette tapes as they tend to break or jam the
device.
• The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.
• Discs which can be played on this player have the following mark on them:
• Do not move the set suddenly from a very cold room into a warm room. When a
chilled CD player is moved suddenly to a warm location, moisture condensation may
form on the pick-up lens, preventing proper operation. In this case, wait 1 to 2 hours
before resuming play.
• During playback, if the CD player is subjected to a sudden shock or jolt, some noise
may be produced, this is not a malfunction.
• Do not place any objects in the disc compartment, it may cause damage to the
mechanism.
• Whenever moving the set, first, be sure to remove the disc from it, If the player is
moved with the disc loaded, the disc may be damaged.
• Do not store discs in high temperature, high-humidity locations. The discs may develop
warps and become unable to play. Also, discs with moisture on them may be
unplayable. Wipe any moisture off with a soft, dry cloth, and be sure discs are fully
dry before using.
• Handle the discs carefully so that fingerprints and dust do not adhere to the surface
of the discs. To clean off, use a soft cloth. Do not use a hard cloth since these will
mark the disc.
• If you switch on or off a fluorescent lamp which is placed near the set, you may hear
some interference noise; this is not a malfunction.

FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES
SURROUND SOUND AND BASS BOOST FEATURES
The Surround Sound feature provides enhanced four speaker output and extra wide
stereo separation. The BASS BOOST feature provides extra Bass Response, especially
at lower volume levels.

experience distortion if the BASS BOOST feature is “ON” _. If this occurs, reduce the
volume or switch the BASS BOOST feature “OFF” —.
RADIO SECTION
RADIO AERIALS
• For FM, lengthen the telescopic aerial. To improve FM-reception, incline and turn the
aerial. Reduce its length if the FM-signal is too strong (very close to a transmitter).
• For MW and LW, the set is provided with a built-in aerial, so the telescopic aerial is not
needed. Direct the aerial by turning the whole set.

STEREO/MONO (FM only)
• When an FM stereo signal is too weak or noisy for stereo listening, set the switch [29]
to the MONO position to reduce the noise.
BEAT CUT (MW and LW only)
• If beat noise is audible during the recording from an MW or LW radio programme,
switch button [29] over from [A] to [B] or from [B] to [A] to reduce the noise.

CHECK THE FOLLOWING BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
Before you jump to the conclusion that it’s out of order!
When the set is not operating properly, one is apt to assume that the set is faulty. There are,
however, many possible faults which are not directly attributable to the set itself. It is
recommended to check the following before taking the set to a Hitachi dealer.
