16 APPENDIX1-Troubleshooting • When making copies of Dolby B or C-encoded audio cassettes, activate the noise reduction circuits on both the source and record decks. This will allow the encoded tape to be decoded first, before being routed to the record deck (where noise reduction will be re-encoded on the copy). re:aril Cleaning When cleaning your preamplifier, avoid the direct use of dusting sprays, abrasive cleaners or caustics (such as dilute ammonia window cleaning solutions). Use only a mild soap and water solution, applied to a soft cloth, rather than sprayed directly onto the component. ore Zohtro When the strength of the remote control's batteries becomes weakened, the operating range of the remote control is shortened. To change the batteries (or initially load the batteries provided with your new player): 1. Slide the battery compartment cover on the back of the remote in the direction of the embossed arrow and remove it. 2. Insert two AA (1.5V/R6/UM3) cells according to the + and - polarity symbols at the bottom of the battery well. Always replace both batteries at the same time. 3. Replace the cover. Make sure that both the remote's front infrared projection "lens" and REMOTE SENSOR on the Citation 25 front panel are kept free from dirt to insure proper optical transmission and reception. Do nut use the remote control near fluorescent lamps which may shorten the operating range of the remote. If you do not intend to use the remote regularly, but have loaded it with batteries to experiment with it, remove them to prevent damage from corrosion.
