MICRO COMPONENT SYSTEM
UX-F3B
—consists of CA-UXF3B and SP-UXF3B
Notes on the power cord
When you go away for an extended period of time,
remove the plug from the wall outlet.
When unplugging the System from the wall outlet,
always pull the plug, not the power cord.
Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.
Disconnect the power cord before cleaning the System or
moving the System.
Do not alter, twist or pull the power cord, or put anything
heavy on it, which may cause fire, electric shock, or other
accidents.
Avoid moisture, water, dust, and high temperatures
Do not place the System in moist or dusty places.
If water gets inside the System, turn off the power and
remove the plug from the wall outlet, then consult your
dealer. Using the System in this state may cause a fire or
electrical shock.
Do not expose the System to direct sunlight or place it
near a heating device.
Lithium coin battery
(product number:
CR2025)
For better FM reception
Disconnect the supplied FM antenna, and connect to an outdoor FM antenna
(not supplied) using a 75 Ω wire with coaxial type connector (IEC or DIN45325).
To a wall outlet
FM antenna (supplied): Extend it so that you can obtain the best reception.
Maintenance
To get the best performance of the System, keep your discs
and the mechanism clean.
Handling discs
Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge
while pressing the center hole lightly.
Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the
disc.
Put the disc back in its case after use.
Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when
placing it back in its case.
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes,
and moisture.
To clean the disc:
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from
center to edge.
Cleaning the System
Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System
is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-
diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe
clean with a dry cloth.
Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become
damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the
following:
DO NOT wipe it hard.
DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
DO NOT apply any volatile substances such as
insecticides to it.
DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact
for a long time.
NOTES:
Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals, connecting cords or the power cord. Also, keep the antennas away
from metallic parts of the System, connecting cords, and the AC power cord. Otherwise, it could cause poor reception.
When connecting the speaker cords, match the polarities of the speaker terminals: red to (+) and black to (–).
DO NOT connect more than one speaker to each terminal.
Use only speakers with the same speaker impedance as indicated by the speaker terminals on the rear of the System.
DO NOT allow the conductor of the speaker cords to come into contact with the metallic parts of the System.
Notes on installation
Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor
too cold—between 5˚C and 35˚C.
Do not install the System in a place subject to vibrations.
Do not put heavy objects on the System.
To prevent malfunction or damage to the System
Do not insert any metallic objects, such as wires, hairpins,
coins, etc. into the System.
Do not block the vents.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything
goes wrong, unplug the power cord and consult your
dealer.
