How to use this manual This manual is divided in to three sections, Preparations, Operations, and Other. Preparations Shows you how to connect your audio components to the receiver. We've tried to make setting up your system as easy as possible. However, since this receiver works with all of your audio components, connecting the system can be fairly complex. Operations Shows you how to operate the various functions available from the receiver. Other Shows you additional information such as ÒIn case of diffi- cultyÓ (troubleshooting) and ÒSpecifications.Ó Maintenance of the set When the front panel or case becomes dirty, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use thinner, benzine, alcohol, etc. for these agents may cause discoloration. In regard to contact cleaner Do not use contact cleaners because it could cause a malfunction. Be specially careful not to use contact cleaners containing oil, for they may deform the plastic component. For the United Kingdom Factory fitted moulded mains plug 1. The mains plug contains a fuse. For replacement, use only a 13-Amp ASTA-approved (BS1362) fuse. 2. The fuse cover must be refitted when replacing the fuse in the moulded plug. 3. 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 adapter, or consult your dealer. If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the fuse and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply. IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Blue : Neutral Brown : Live Do not connect those leads to the earth terminal of a three-pin plug.

Special features MONITOR The TAPE2/MONITOR jacks of this unit accept the connec- tion of a cassette deck, graphic equalizer, surround proces- sor, etc. When a 3-head cassette deck is connected to the TAPE2/MONITOR jacks, it is possible to monitor the sound which has just been recorded during recording. @ Station preset This unit incorporates a function for storing received stations in preset memory with a simple operation. It is very conve- nient to preset the stations you like. The preset stations can be recalled also very easily. $ RDS (Radio Data System) tuner # The receiver is equipped with a RDS tuner that provides several convenient tuning functions: RDS Auto Memory to automati- cally preset up to 30 stations including RDS broadcasting different programs and ordinary FM stations; station name display to show you the name of the current broadcast station; and PTY Search to let you tune stations by program type. PTY (Program TYpe) search Lets you tune stations by specifying the type of program you want to hear. EON (Enhanced Other Networks) reservation The EON function lets you monitor information on other stations so you can receive traffic or news programs as soon as they are broadcast, even they are broadcast on a station different from the one you are currently listening to. When the broadcast ends, the receiver returns to the original station. When listening to KENWOOD source components connected with system control cords, the input selector on the receiver automatically switches to the tuner when a program you desire is broadcast. Remote controllable audio function By connecting KENWOOD source components such as a cassette deck and CD player through system control connec- tion, the basic operations of these components can be con- trolled from the remote control unit provided with this unit. A single remote control unit can control the entire audio system easily. New ÒTRAITÒ transistor The new developed ÒTRAITÓ transistor with extremely supe- rior temperature characteristics is used in this amplifierÔs amplification circuit. Through the use of this transistor, distor- tion generated because of temperature change is kept to a minimum resulting in ÒpureÓ sound reproduction. Getting started Preparations Operations Other
