WARNING
BEFORE TURNING ON POWER FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ
THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
@ Some models are designed for use only with the power
supply voltage of the region where they are sold.
@ U.K. and Australian models: AC 240V, 50Hz
@ European models (except U.K.): AC 220V, 50Hz
@ U.S.A. and Canadian models: AC 120V, 60Hz
@ Worldwide models: AC 120 and 220V
switchable, 50 / 60Hz
= Voltage selector (rear panel)
Worldwide models are equipped with a voltage selector to
conform with local power supplies. Be sure to set this
switch to match the power supply in your area before
turning the power switch on. Voltage is changed by sliding
the groove in the switch with a screwdriver to the right or
left. Confirm that the switch has been moved all the way to
the right or left before turning the power switch on. Models
without a voltage selector can only be used in areas where
the power supply voltage is the same as that of the unit.

3. Deck location
@ Do not use or leave in direct sunlight or in other places
subject to high temperature and humidity. The unit should
also not be left in potentially hot places such as near
heating appliances. Excessive heat and moisture can lead
to internal damage and serious malfunctions (this also
applies to cassette tapes). The recommended ambient
temperature range is 5°C to 35°C.
@ Avoid damp and dusty places and locations prone to
vibrations.
@ Be extremely careful with the recording/playback heads.
Clean and demagnetize them regularly but under no circum-
stances should magnets or other metals be used anywhere
near the heads.
@ This unit is extremely sensitive to magnetic fields, so do not
use near large speakers or other devices which generate
magnetic fields.
@ Hum may even be induced by magnetic flux leakage from
the power transformer in certain amplifiers. Therefore, this
unit should also be kept clear of the amplifier.
@ Do not remove the cabinet case. If any of the internal parts
are handled, there is a considerable danger of electric
shock,
. Cassettes to avoid:
@ Cassettes with poorly formed cases that rattle during
rewind and fast forward.
@ Low cost cassettes with no guide roller or pressure pad
spring should never be used for stereo.
@ C-120 cassettes — because the tape and the coating are
extremely thin, distortion levels are high and the auto
reverse function may not operate properly. Also, even a
slight stretching of the tape will make it susceptible to being
caught up in the pinch roller and capstan.
@ Endless tapes, if used for a long period of time, can
overheat.

Microphone jacks
Although microphones in the 200 ohm—10 kohm impedance
range are quite acceptable, those in the 600 ohm—10 kohm range
will give the best results.
Headphone jack
Dynamic type headphones with a rated impedance in the 8 to 200
ohm range are recommended.
Remote control terminal
For remote control operation, connect the Onkyo RC-5T remote
control unit (option) or an amplifier or receiver remote control
connector to this terminal. (Record, play, pause, stop, fast-
forward and rewind operations can be accomplished via remote
control.)
Note:
| Do not connect DIN cords and pin cords at the same time. |
