DMF-5020/DMF3020/MD-203 (En) 2 RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN CAUTION Introduction Before applying power The marking is located on the rear panel and says that the component uses laser beams that have been classified as Class 1. It means that the unit is utilizing laser beams that are of a weaker class. There is no danger of hazardous radiation outside the unit. CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT The marking of products using lasers (Except for some areas) WARNING :TO PREVENT FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. Safety precautions 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. For the United Kingdom CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE, REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. THE LIGHTNING FLASH WITH ARROWHEAD SYMBOL, WITHIN AN EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE, IS INTENDED TO ALERT THE USER TO THE PRESENCE OF UNINSULATED ÒDANGEROUS VOLTAGEÓ WITHIN THE PRODUCTÕS ENCLOSURE THAT MAY BE OF SUFFICIENT MAGNITUDE TO CONSTITUTE A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK TO PERSONS. THE EXCLAMATION POINT WITHIN AN EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE IS INTENDED TO ALERT THE USER TO THE PRESENCE OF IMPORTANT OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE (SERVICING) INSTRUCTIONS IN THE LITERATURE ACCOMPANYING THE APPLIANCE. Caution : Read this section carefully to ensure safe operation. Units are designed for operation as follows.

DMF-5020/DMF-3020/MD-203 (En) 31 Synchro recording with CD playback By connecting this unit with a KENWOOD Ò Ó type amplifier and CD player, which are equipped with system control jacks, using system control cords, the recording of MD can be started in synchronism with the playback of the CD player. DIGITAL recording and SCMS Recording (DIGITAL input) 1 Set the amplifierÕs input selector to CD. 2 Put the CD player in pause mode. 3 Select the CD track to be recorded using the 4 or ¢ key. 4 Put the MD recorder in record-pause mode. 5 Start playback of the CD player. ÖSynchronized recording is not possible while the SOUND SYNCHRO REC, AUTO CUT and REC AUTO PAUSE function is operating. Three types of digital signals are usually used according to the sampling frequencies. The sampling frequencies vary depending on the types of digital equipment as shown below. 48 kHz : Standard mode of DAT, B mode broadcasting of BS tuner, etc. 44.1 kHz : Standard mode of DAT, CD, MD, etc. 32 kHz : Standard and long-hour modes of DAT, A mode broadcasting of BS tuner, etc. In general, high-quality recording based on digital signal transmission is available only when the sampling frequency of the source equipment matches that of the recorder equipment. However, this unit incorporates a sampling rate converter so that it can also record digital signals sampled at 48 kHz and 32 kHz by converting their sampling frequency into the sampling frequency of MD (44.1 kHz). The SCMS may be activated with certain type of satellite broadcasting. (DAT: Digital Audio Tape deck) Note on the sampling rate converter Designed for copyright protection, the SCMS is a pre- scription that copying of digital signals as they are in the digital form between digital audio equipment is allowable only for one generation. If the digital source has a copy prohibition code, ÒSCMS ONÓ is displayed and the unit enters record-pause mode.

SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) Digital copy can- not be repeated.
