Every control on the Stereo Music Center serves a specific, useful function
and is important for its proper operation.

We recommend that you read the following section carefully, so you may take
full advantage of the performance capabilities of your system.

BALANCE CONTROL.

The BALANCE CONTROL is used to adjust the sound level of each channel with
relation to each other.

The nature of stereophonic reproduction is such that it requires two
identical channels to obtain the optimum stereo effect.  As there may be
slight differences between the location of two speakers; output of tape
heads, cartridges, etc., the balance control permits re-balancing of the
overall system even in extreme cases where imbalance exists.

This unique control permits you to obtain perfect system balance regardless
of speaker placement, room acoustics, or listener location.  It no longer
becomes necessary to sit directly in the exact center path of the speakers
for perfect stereo.  The balance control offers complete flexibility and
may be set anywhere within its range of rotation to attain system balance.

VOLUME CONTROL.

The VOLUME CONTROL is used to adjust the volume level of any program
material fed into the stereo system.  The control varies both channels
simultaneously, therefore eliminating the necessity of balancing your
system each time you change the volume level.

BASS AND TREBLE CONTROLS.

The BASS and TREBLE tone controls on your control center provide the full
rage of tonal adjustment necessary for stereo high fidelity listening.  The
tone control range is considerable and can adequately adjust the low and
high frequencies in accordance with your listening preference, speaker
characteristics and room acoustics.

FUNCTION SELECTOR SWITCH.

1.  AM:              In this position, all LAM broadcasts are reproduced
                     by your system.

2.  FM:              Selects the FM section of your system.  In this
                     position, you can listen to stereophonic broadcasts
                     monophonically while monophonic broadcasts will
                     appear unchanged.

3.  FM:              This is the normal listening position for all mono-
  STEREO             phonic or stereophonic FM broadcasts.  In this
                     position, the stereo indicator and automatic switch-
                     ing circuit built into your receiver are operative.
                     For further details, see the paragraphs on "STEREO
                     INDICATOR" and "SELECTING MONOPHONIC OR STEREO FM
                     BROADCASTS".

4.  PHONO/AUX:       Selects your record player for stereophonic operation
                     or an external source such as a reel-to-reel or
                     cassette tape deck for playback.

5.  STEREO-8 TAPE:   Selects STEREO-8 built-in cartridge player.

AFC.

When this switch is depressed, the AFC circuitry is activated thereby
locking the FM signal.  This control should be IN to facilitate tuning.
When tuning to a weak station adjacent to a strong one, the "AFC" switch
should be in the OUT position.

TUNING.

The tuning knob is located on the front panel of your music system.  This
knob is used to select the desired station when the FUNCTION SELECTOR is
placed in the FM, FM STEREO or AM position.

STEREO INDICATOR.

A stereo indicator light is located directly behind the dial glass and
illuminates when you are tuned to an FM stereo broadcast.

DIAL SCALE.

Vernier tuning has been incorporated in your music center for precise and
accurate tuning.  To select a station, simply rotate the tuning knob until
the dial pointer indicates the number which corresponds to the desired
station.

SELECTING MONOPHONIC OR STEREO FM BROADCASTS.

Under normal conditions for all FM broadcasts, the Function Selector
switch should be placed in the FM Stereo position.

Your system is equipped with a stereo sensing circuit which can
automatically determine if your unit is receiving monophonic or
stereophonic broadcasts and automatically adjust the mode of operation.  If
the station is transmitting stereo, your receiver will automatically switch
in the multiplex section, and you will hear the broadcast in full stereo. 
Should the station conclude broadcasting in stereo, your receiver will
automatically switch back to monophonic reception.

Should you receive a weak stereo signal whose quality has been degraded by
noise or poor signal conditions, and you wish to listen to this stereo
broadcast monophonically, place the FUNCTION SELECTOR in the FM position.

RECORD CHANGER.

Your Modulaire 8 has been designed to accept a stereo record changer which
utilizes a ceramic cartridge such as Realistic 44 Cat. #42-2596.

TAPE INPUT.

In order to play an external source such as reel-to-reel tape deck, T.V.,
etc., connect the output of the source into the TAPE-IN jacks on the rear
panel of your Modulaire 8.  Place the FUNCTION SELECTOR switch in the
PHONO /AUX position.

TAPE RECORDING.

The 2 jacks marked REC.  OUT may be used for permanent connection to the
aux. or radio inputs of an external tape recorder.  Any program selected
by the FUNCTION SELECTOR is available at the REC.  OUT jacks and is not
affected by the VOLUME and TONE controls.
