Precautions

1. Recording Copyright

Unless it's for personal use only, recording copyrighted

material is illegal without the permission of the copy-

right holder.

2. AC Fuse

The AC fuse inside the CR-505 is not user-serviceable.

If you cannot turn on the CR-505, contact your Onkyo

dealer.

3. Care

Occasionally you should dust the CR-505 all over with

a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth damp-

ened with a weak solution of mild detergent and water.

Dry the CR-505 immediately afterwards with a clean

cloth. Don't use abrasive cloths, thinners, alcohol, or

other chemical solvents, because they may damage the

finish or remove the panel lettering.

4. Power

WARNING

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE

FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION

CAREFULLY.

AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make

sure that the voltage in your area meets the voltage

requirements printed on the CR-505's rear panel (AC

230-240 V, 50 Hz).

Setting the [STANDBY/ON] switch to STANDBY does

not fully shutdown the CR-505. If you do not intend to

use the CR-505 for an extended period, remove the

power cord from the AC outlet.

5. Never Touch This Unit with Wet Hands

Never handle this unit or its power cord while your

hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid gets

inside this unit, have it checked by your Onkyo dealer.

6. Installing This Unit

· Install this unit in a well-ventilated location.

· Ensure that there's adequate ventilation all around

this unit, especially if it's installed in an audio rack. If

the ventilation is inadequate, the unit may overheat,

leading to malfunction.

· Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heat

sources, because its internal temperature may rise,

shortening the life of the optical pickup.

· Avoid damp and dusty places, and places subject to

vibrations from loudspeakers. Never put the unit on

top of, or directly above, a loudspeaker.

· Install this unit horizontally. Never use it on its side

or on a sloping surface, because it may cause a mal-

function.

· If you install this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the

sound quality may be affected. If this occurs, move

this unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.

7. Moisture Condensation

Moisture condensation may damage this unit.

Read the following carefully:

When you take a glass containing a cold drink outside

on a summer's day, drops of water, called condensation,

form on the outside of the glass. Similarly, moisture

may condense on the lens of the optical pickup, one of

the most important parts inside this unit.

· Moisture condensation can occur in the following sit-

uations:

-- The unit is moved from a cold place to a warm

place.

-- A heater is turned on, or cold air from an air con-

ditioner is hitting the unit.

-- In the summer, when this unit is moved from an

air conditioned room to a hot and humid place.

-- The unit is used in a humid place.

· Do not use this unit when there's the possibility of

moisture condensation occurring. Doing so may

damage your discs and certain parts inside this unit.

If condensation does occur, remove all discs and leave

this unit turned on for two to three hours. By this time,

the unit will have warmed up and any condensation will

have evaporated. To reduce the risk of condensation,

keep this unit connected to a wall outlet.

For British models

Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power

supply cord of this unit should be performed only by quali-

fied service personnel.

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 appara-

tus may not correspond with the coloured markings identi-

fying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire that is coloured blue must be connected to the ter-

minal that is marked with the letter N or coloured black.

The wire that is coloured brown must be connected to the

terminal that is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

IMPORTANT

A 3, 5 or 13 ampere fuse is fitted in this plug. Should the

fuse need to be replaced, please ensure that the replacement

fuse has a rating of 3, 5 or 13 amperes and that it is approved

by ASTA or BSI to BS1362. Check for the ASTA mark or

the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.

IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUITABLE

FOR THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR HOME THEN

THE FUSE SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE PLUG

CUT OFF AND DISPOSED OF SAFELY. THERE IS A

DANGER OF SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK IF THE

CUT OFF PLUG IS INSERTED INTO ANY 13 AMPERE

SOCKET.

If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

Precautions--Continued

Memory backup

The CR-505 uses a battery-less memory backup system in

order to retain radio presets and other settings when it's

unplugged or in case of a power failure. Although no batter-

ies are required, the CR-505 must be plugged into an AC

outlet in order to charge the backup system.

Once it has been charged, the CR-505 will retain the set-

tings for several weeks, although this depends on the envi-

ronment and retention will be shorter in humid climates.

The clock setting is not retained by the backup system.

This unit contains a semiconductor laser system and is

classified as a "CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT." So, to
